Well I am in one piece following my busy week. I think I have done well over 100 miles on my bike since Tuesday. Friday’s gig went well but I was tired after the 36 miles cycling (including Frocester Hill) on top of a fairly active all day performance. I was especially pleased with my telling of the Sleeping King to the older children. I think the Arthurian tales are among my better tellings. I do let the story do the work and try not to do too much jumping about. I am getting better with my pauses at dramatic bits.

My Peter is here for the weekend and has probably overdone his cycling today with three pretty big hills. He will sleep well tonight! We are supposed to be going out for a ride together tomorrow.
