Well what a useless blogger I am ! I said I would update last Friday and here we are on the following Thursday. The gig was good Pete’s band Irwin seemed much more confident than last time and I enjoyed seeing the offerings from the other bands too. Pete had a good following of friends many of whom we know. We were at the British Museum before the gig visiting the Pompeii exhibition, very impressive. I then went to see old favourites like the Rosetta Stone and the Sutton Hoo Helmet. I love the Egyptian Room and takes me back to a school trip when I was 10 (a long, long time ago). The textile museum on the Thursday was an eye opener should I take up knitting?

I won’t mention cricket because it a poor show, we hope for better this weekend.

Clare and I went away in our camper “Cedric” for 3 nights to Devon and cycled out each day. Weather was great-today back home is a disappointment with wind and showers despite 200+ swifts up at the lake.

No news on the update of the web site-Dave tells me it is going well.

A couple of gigs booked up so I will need to start preparing.

The title today reflects the wind but I didn’t hear any mandolins but it was a good song!
