Things in Oldham, Manchester, UK are a little busy right now. I still find time to do a few things on the harp though.
Nothing special. "Mr Sandman, bring me a dream" comes out well, especially the intro bit. For those liking something a bit more trad, I do "Miss Bowls' Minuet" and "The Magic Slipper".
Meantime I am now a Trustee for
http://cribsinternational.org/. Making logos, flyer brochures, buttons, stamps, you name it. And assisting with the Finance committee who are currently arguing with our landlords in Athens about a €800 water bill - that big because there was a fault which didn't get fixed (by the landlord) properly. My beloved, Sally, is on the spot, doing the arguing, and helping buy essentials for the six refugee families we are housing - handing out first-aid-kits was her first priority. She's an experienced breast-feeding counsellor, and can field most of the questions from the new mothers.
And we've just been interviewed by the BBC for other volunteer work we've done.
In addition, we've been hosting refugees ourselves - the father has gone off to another city to find housing, leaving his sixteen-year-old son with me. The son has been living in America, despite being nominally Middle Eastern, and he is learning the way of Chips and Bangers and Cheese-and-Onion pie. And we've introduced him to Studio Ghibli movies. And Sudoku. And Heroquest (wow, that's going back a bit).
And, would you believe I still have a full-time job? (Well, mostly...).
Nice house, By the way!
