HAPPY NEW WEEK AND NEW MONTH!

I have been watching too LINDA. Joyce DiDonato has a beautiful voice. She had to be the star of the first half for me. Just off to lubricate the voice so that I can join in the second half.
Hi Clare: We are full of cake, roast chicken, and now also apple/black. crumble too. Dare not have any alcohol or I may explode!!

I bet you're both singing along as I type! I'm off to roost - see you in the morning.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
That was a super evening viewing.
It was great, wasn't it Brenda - very patriotic! And everyone looked dry at the outdoor venues, although I noticed that they were well wrapped up in Belfast, Wales and Glasgow. I love that version of "God Save the Queen" where it starts quietly and then builds up dramatically. I get choked up when they get to the line "Long may she reign..." as I think of what an enormously long time its been - surely those who were there at the Coronation could never have expected her to still be doing the job (& so well!!) after all these years, now.
Off to bed now, 'bye to anyone still awake!
