Afternoon concert in the cathedral

I was still quite weary this morning so got some washing done, made a crumble and prepared veg for dinner later and packed the jigsaw away. So nothing too strenuous. After lunch I walked into Dunkeld with Tina, I had the concert to go to and she wanted to see how the enactment had gone and if any new people signed up for the archeology group. We went via the poorly sycamore, that was one huge branch that came down!

I went to the field with Tina.
We had a drink and then walked down to the river in the cathedral grounds before I went in to the concert.
The concert was very good, not cello pieces I know but the final one was particularly lovely.
I walked home very slowly, my hip wasn’t at all happy! Zoomed too much on the jackdaw but will post it anyway.
We have had dinner and I will watch the final of The Piano a bit later.

  1. Always good to get a few chores done, the trouble is that they’re never ending. There’s always more waiting no matter how many you do!
    The sycamore does look a bit poorly. I hope the break won’t affect it in any other way though.
    I’ve always like the reenactment groups. I think I could probably get into it. I’d be more the man at the fire, rather than anything else. Maybe I should have done it when I was younger, like a lot of other things.
    I’m pleased you enjoyed the concert as I know how much you enjoy the cello. It’s amazing what can come out of it under the right hands, even though it is such a basic instrument.
    Hopefully a bit of feet up time in front of the tv will give the hip time to settle down before bed.

  2. Yes, as you say, there are always chores, trouble is it is too easy to find something more interesting to be doing!
    Hopefully the tree will be okay, it would be really sad to see it die.
    I think the reenactment went well, which is good.
    The concerts have almost finished for this year, just two more to go. One is two pianists at one piano and the other the opera singer that sings at the group I singing afternoon in the church.
