Friday 14th
So now is the eve of our festival.
We have had the prelims. But after tea we are to be
entertained by James King, The Bluegrass Brothers and Third Generation.
So far we have been here for five days and spent our time
keeping in the shade during the day, and playing bluegrass in the evenings. It
is so nice to be able to sit out until 1.00 in the morning in a Tee shirt and
shorts. Sally has not had to worry about where the Wellies are, if her
waterproofs are at hand, or how many layers she needs to keep the right
temperature. Instead we have both had our instruments out and taken part in
several jams. Now that I have the new mandolin I have been playing that more
than the guitar, not necessarily very well, but playing anyway.
The budget for car maintenance has taken a bit of a
hammering this week. Two new all terrain tires, new battery, wiper blades, oil
change and two new batteries for Sally’s wheelchair haver taken their toll on
the budget, still it has been pretty cheap over the last five years, so we
won’t complain (too much).
