Feels like I've been travelling, travelling...............

After 2 weeks in London working at the Wigmore Hall with singer Tina May, drummer Brian Abrahams and a trio of bass players - Paul Michael, Gareth Hew-Davie and Andy Hammil, I was in Dumfires and Lockerbie last week, Sheffield at the weekend and have just had two glorious days in Aberdeenshire.

The 2 schools at Premnay and Kenethmont were so friendly and welcoming - how often does a musician get a half dozen butterys before getting into the car - and Rhynie butterys at that (just had one - fantastic!)

And then on to Clerkhill school in Peterhead to be greeted by Deputy Head George Cowie with another 1/2 butterys and help carrying in the gear!

Pupils in all 3 schools really got stuck in to the music and their enthusiasm blew me away - I'm at home now before setting off on my travels again and look forward to FYJO tonight (and butterys tomorrow)
