On Monday we were supposed to be taking Euan up to his grand parents but he’d decided he didn’t want to go! I suppose he’s feeling maybe a little bit vulnerable now that his little sister has turned up.

Anyway, we all went to Chalfont Fair instead where, coincidentally, the band were playing. It was really odd being at a band engagement without playing and quite frustrating too, especially as the band were really putting in an excellent performance that was going down well with the crowd.

My playing’s taken a dive over the last couple of weeks due to the change in family circumstances, but I’ve now been practicing quite hard in preparation for our big charity concert on Saturday. I’m really looking forward to it, it should be a corker.
