A seagull first thing on a sunny day...



At lunchtime, tickets secured for The New Town Concerts 2014/15 Series, their 50th Anniversary Season...

We will hear works by Purcell, Haydn, Beethoven, Shostakovich, Turnage, Mozart, Dutilleux, Brahms, JS Bach, Mendelssohn and Ginastera, played between November and March by the Emerson Quartet, the Belcea Quartet, Quator Ebene and Cuarteto Libertadores...

Home with the sun still out...


Listening to some of the quartets we will hear...

"Big Bang" and "New Girl" and salmon enjoyed...

Swithered about going to Amsterdam to see Herman Van Veen - he is playing over 30 nights at Le Carre theatre there over the winter - however, they all seem to be sold out...

No one in the UK has heard of him...

Oh well...

Some time spent introducing nephew Ali to the economic realities of the proposed Independent Scotland...

Hopefully he gets it...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Tix for Quartets...
