A Lazy Sunday Afternoon Celebration of the Songs of Elton John and Billy Joel
'Your Song - a Celebration of the Songs of Elton John is coming to Penistone Paramount but In addition to your favourite Elton John Tunes, there will also be a few Billy Joel songs added into the setlist for this show !!
“It is a WOW of a show. A '5' star performance - the beautiful voice of John Reilly plus the wonderful keyboards/piano of Lewis Nitikman.”
Warren Walters. Pizza Express, The Pheasantry, Kings Road Chelsea
'Your Song', performed by singer-songwriter John Reilly (of Boy on a Dolphin and Acoustic Angels) and pianist and composer Lewis Nitikman, has been wowing audiences throughout the country. It is 100% live music, it's NOT a tribute, so no dressing up, no miming and no backing tracks, just two consummate professionals celebrating amazing, timeless songs, performed from the heart with passion and musical excellence.
“Your Song” has recently performed at the Epstein Theatre Liverpool, Alexander’s Chester, Kirkgate Arts Centre Cockermouth, The Goods Shed, Tetbury, Chapel Arts Centre Bath, Pizza Express The Pheasantry Chelsea and most recently at Alnwick Playhouse and Masham Town Hall, all ending with standing ovations as the guys celebrate these fabulous songs in their own unique style. They are just to play Acapela Studios, Cardiff, for the third time, to a sell-out audience.
“A brilliant night of outstanding musicianship. The sound that “Your Song” create is amazing. The audience were mesmerised.”
Paul James, Programme Director – Acapela Studio.

RSPCA Cat Rehoming
Beatrice Bertie
Our handsome little family – 2 boys, 2 girls – have been with us a few weeks and are now fit and healthy and ready for new homes. They love their foster home, and have lots of fun – these happy, confident kittens who have a great time together but are ready to move on and find their own homes.
Available for rehoming immediately.
Please fill in our ONLINE Perfect Match Form to apply.
Due to a high volume of forms we regret that we can only contact applicants we feel are most suitable for the particular cat or kitten.
In order to free up our Enquiries Line for urgent calls, please do not call with adoption queries. Thank you.
Pippa and Pepper
A brother and sister pair – available week beginning 23 September. These little whirlwinds were born with us, to a loving mum who’s raised them well. Pippa and Pepper are either up to kitten mischief or snoozing together.
Pepper is a typical boy always climbing higher or chasing his sister. He has a lovely grey and white velvety coat. Pippa is a beauty – she has a gorgeous grey fluffy coat. The kittens are adorable, although sometimes a little shy so they need lots of love and cuddles in their new home.

Cooper
Cooper is a handsome boy – he’s big and has lovely thick soft fur.
Cooper loves his foster family - including their cat. He loves to follow his family around, sits near them and jumps on their bed in the morning. Cooper enjoys being brushed and patted, playing (especially with a feather on a stick) and he really loves eating – he’s a bit too chubby.
Cooper sadly hasn’t found the right home yet – he was homeless for a while, and now his owners have given him up.
Cooper is gorgeous, but he doesn’t always like to be fussed too much – he can be a bit sassy, and will give out the odd swipe or nip if he’s annoyed. He always gives warning by swishing his tail if he’s had enough.
He will need to be able to go out and blow off some steam in his new home, and he will not be suitable for people with young children.
We love his good looks and quirky nature - come and meet him if you have a place on your sofa for our big boy.
