No excuse for today’s title back to music and one of my heroes although he is best known for one song (in the title) it is a long way from his best. We went to the Albert Hall to see Ralph McTell. He was superb and it was a journey through many of his best known songs. The first time I saw him was at Cambridge Folk Festival I think in 1972 and his resonant voice and sublime guitar work had me transfixed. I have watched him many times over the decades and have enjoyed his vast catalogue of beautiful and thought-provoking songs. While up in town we went to the Natural History Museum to see a fantastic exhibition of photographs from Space of planets, moons and comets. We also did a couple of galleries as well as listening to a wonderful classical lunch time concert at St. Martin’s in the Field.
Story Telling at Wick Court on Wednesday night went well and I was surprised at how I adapted a couple of old favourites. Funny how the story develops a different direction at times and how new words come into your head. I am also busy learning some new ones.
A long ride this morning with my Peter with much climbing!
