Clare visit / Robbie's bash / Chorale dinner
Saturday
My sister Clare came to visit on Saturday to have a look at the new house - she is over from Australia so I hadn't seen her for a couple of years. We had lunch and went to muzo friend Robbie Murphy's birthday gathering before dropping her off at the station. Lovel to see her. It quite took me aback as it appeared to me how much facially she now resembles my dad. Plus because of illness this xmas I hadn;t seen any family for 18months so it was nice but odd hearing family memories and expressions again. Family kind of talk.
I was really exhausted from te 4 gigs in 3 days plus it was so hot and uncomfortable it was doubly nice to do very little but sit and chat so Clare proabably saved me draging more boxes over from my house :-)
Sunday
Still very tired - did some weekend chores - then the Leicestershire Chorale were having it's annual concert/dinner at East Norton Church and Hall - Concrt was a number of old and new composers and was pleasant enough tho there was no reverb in the tiny church - weather warm but pleasant for the meal. Got home and watched The Hound of the Baskervilles (Rathbone version) on DVD. Over the last few days I have been watching Season 1 Bewitched for nostalghia reasons - fun and easy watch.
