Sunday

If you have a moment please listen to this heart-felt song Si and I have just finished arranging.  It is a preview track for our album and live performance

Back to Sunday...

Watched dogs dig hole, hide bone, dig bone up and run off – Oh if only life were that simple.
I suppose one could draw a comparison with songwriting if I wanted to devote the mental effort  to it.  Right now just typing hits page is a huge effort as my typing skills are negligible.

Then I watched cows through hole in garden wall.  They are gorgeous girt great red Devonshires remind me of dark red Devon Soil in the Dart Valley – they are excellent for propagating wild flowers apparently and for good soil health-something to do with their grazing patterns across the fields- I watch and try to learn about this from observation...

Dogs ran away.One of them  reappears round front of house.  Lesson; dogs are extremely wayward. Si on the stairs heaving up hefty speakers... having just spent rather more than I want to think about on them.  O Bloody hell-I think, this singing lark is looking a bit too serious. 

I then make a mental note-to try and spend  the Sundays I get to spend at home, in the garden and the wider landscape, in the woods and the fields.
 Very excited about the Great Hall gig at Dartington.  I was going to write a song about the demise of the place- but haven’t the heart to.

Best wishes to you all and I hope you have a restful day in amongst all the business of our lives.
