Not sure if it is a song title but it ought to be! Glorious cold frosty morning here in deepest Gloucestershire! Had a super ride and had plenty of good sightings of birds in the hedges.

Out tonight for a Ralph McTell concert at St George’s Bristol a lovely setting with excellent acoustics. Covid protocols look well thought out so feel it should be safe. I’ve decided I will take my face shield to my gigs this month but I am hoping my stage (sic) is far enough from my audience so I don’t have to wear it!

I always get a thrill seeing the fastest animal in the world and I had have a lovely view of one today out near the River Severn . He flew past and then landed on the ground and sat there for a good while! I have seen them chasing prey on a few occasions and brilliant to watch unless you are the intended victim!

I am learning stories every day at the moment for a busy December ( hoping things will still go ahead!) I am hoping to do the same stories for each of the four evening gigs I am doing
