We left Cardrona last Tuesday and went more or less straight to Dunedin where we played at the Dunedin Celtic Festival.

Friday concert at Otago museum brought out old friend from Cardiff Morris, we didn't even know he lived there now.

Great ceilidh on Saturday night with Slattery's Ashes, augmented by Martin Curtis and the extremely versatile Marcus Turner. We even let their own caller do a little guest spot!

Short concert spot on Sunday then we hightailed it to Christchurch to meet up with fab guitarist (and maker) Graham Wardrop. Watch out for him, we'll have him in Llantrisant and beyond before long.

Tomorrow we play for the snoozers on the afternoon ferry to Wellington, then to a session at the Dragon Bar in the evening.

Splottie and the Dame.
