I'm wassailing with a few people I've not sung with before at the Mediaeval Fair in Ludlow, UK, tomorrow, out for dinner with my sweetie and and friends tomorrow night, bit of a lie in on Sunday followed by more singing at the fair and home in time for Top Gear. Sounds a bit boring when I read it back, but, hey, I don't care! |

Gotta get some food for the party, also a little pressie, and mustn't forget to take my library books back as I missed the Oct meeting. Then in the evening (after voting sometime during the day!!) it's my folk club - we all have out fingers crossed the the Govt will change & the Prime Miniscule (aka Little Fascist Johnny) will lose his seat, as well as government. Sunday afternoon a concert at JennyO's club, then a CD launch at a pub in the evening. Apart from that, nuffin' much. sandra (sniffing away with a nasty little summer cold) |

23 Nov 07 - 09:56 AM (#2200672) Subject: RE: BS: What are you up to this weekend? From: catspaw49 Yesterday, Thaursday and Thanksgiving, we spent the whole day with my son Michael. Several things we planned didn't work out but we had a good day together anyhow. On Sunday we are going back to the residential center he is in and move him to a Therapeutic Foster Home.....He's making progress. Saturday we'll be with Connie and Wayne and I'm making Cioppino......I make GREAT Cioppino! We'll have an antipasto salad and garlic bread then sit around, BS, and digest.....Hey...we're a fun group(;<)).....but we do eat well! Tristan is also out of school on Monday which is garbage pick-up and he'll be able to talk to the guys and he's having Mom make up a plate of tin of her homemade cookies to give them. He loves ALL trucks but the garbage truck is a BIG deal. One of the owner/drivers is an old student of mine who has done really well in the business and Ryan enjoys Tris. He's let him help sometimes which makes Tristan's day/week/etc. In all seriousness, down the road a bit that is a job Tris could do and would LOVE to do. Ryan might play a large part in that. He always said I was the best teacher he ever had so maybe we have an "in" ****Big Grin***............. Spaw |

We have a few errands to run, today. I hope the station will NOT call Rog in for anything, or even call him for trivial crap like they did four times yesterday! (I think they forget some people rarely have days off and should not be bothered unless the place is burning down!) Later on, I am sure we'll watch a movie or something whilst eating leftovers.:-) Yesterday we had a blast watching the old Disney animal version of Robin Hood, with Roger Miller's great songs, with my brother and grandson. I love that movie! Tomorrow, we will relax, maybe try getting the gutters cleaned or finish painting the shutters or just clean up after Tksgiving dinner. (I have a list and I am not afraid to wave it around.:-) Sunday is Rog's day to do absolutely nothing, if that's what he wants. We'll both be on the internet; I will probably try to finish up some editing work that's way past due. I am sure there will naps taken at some point and maybe a short drive in the country. Thanks for asking, kat |

25 Nov 07 - 11:10 AM (#2201812) Subject: RE: BS: What are you up to this weekend? From: katlaughing Skarpi, Scooby, and Jacqui get well! {{{{HUGS}}}} I spoke too soon, earlier. On Friday, the station called. We had to drive up on to Mesa Point, which, once one leaves the highway, entails three hours of driving across an ancient lava field with nothing but rocks just as it would seem, even in the very primitive road. The contrasts of the dried grasses and shrubs along the way were beautiful, though, and I got some good pix, I think. So that took up most of the day. Saturday we were doing pretty well, even got some housework and other stuff done. Had plans for our grandson to come over. Not so. The station called. We had to go up on Blackridge where the main transmitter is. More pix to come, though I missed the quails, they ran too fast, and the rabbits. I may have a good one of a deer. We went up at sunset and came down watching a yellow full moon hang out over the valley. We were at about 8,000 feet above sea level while the valley is about 4,500. Just beautiful. I got some interesting pix of the moon with streaking and multiple orbs as the shutter in my digital was really slow as it was getting dark. Just as we were headed down the snaky road, the station called again. They were getting ready to put on the news and left things to the last minute. Something wasn't working right, so there we go, heading off to the station. We finally got home about 7p. Our grandson gave up on us. We have plans for today but I am NOT speaking them until we are done...maybe they won't call today. Some four days off it's been for my Rog!:-) |

Today is almost over, so...here goes: quiet morning doing mostly nothing, except some laundry. Morgan came over at 11a. At noon we went over to our son's and his partner's house, with Morgan who loves playing with her five year old, Patrick. They are best buds. Our son made chicken kabobs on the grill, we had great food, a fun time visiting and playing. My only regret was I didn't take over the dulcimer and limberjacks. Need to do that next time. I love our son's partner. She is very easy to be with and just a doll. She's also got a great son. Home by mid-afternoon after dropping the grandson off with his mom and "dad," then we both mostly slept the afternoon away. NO phone calls (knock on wood!) So it's been better, yes and thanks! {{{{{HUGS to ALL}}}} |

29 Nov 07 - 10:26 PM (#2205233) Subject: RE: BS: What are you up to this weekend? From: Ron Davies Behind the times, oh well. The weekend 23 -25 Nov, was of course Thanksgiving in the US, as I believe was noted--so for many it started Thursday. That day I went to my brother's place. After eating, I heard one of my nieces play the harp. Not a Celtic harp, nor a concert harp. Something between. Then my brother played what I think he called a "xanphoon"--something like that. Cross between a clarinet and a saxophone. Sounds like it too. And very portable--he takes it on trips a lot. I bet it's a good conversation-starter. He played "Has Anybody Seen My Gal?", "Cheek to Cheek" and a few more. If I could play a reed instrument, I'd definitely be interested in this instrument. Friday I sang 2 concerts of "Showboat" at the Kennedy Center, Marvin Hamlisch conducting. Not staged, just a concert version--some selections. Wonderful cast, picked by the conductor. In "Old Man River" we sang "Some of us work on the Mississippi." "Some of us"? Sounded weird. But that's what Marvin changed it to. Another "Showboat" concert Saturday night. Standing ovations all 3 times. The cast deserved them. Sunday, Jan and I had a music party. Harp (David Scheim--so wonderfully versatile), also fiddle, viola, clarinet, guitar--but mostly singing. I love that sort of gathering--but missed you, Bill and Rita! |

From: Liz the Squeak Schlepped 280 handmade Christmas cards across London to Waterloo, unstacked chairs, set out wine glasses, bottles, mince pies, plates and napkins, schlepped across the river to the City to sing at a wedding in the Wesleyan Chapel (it was beautiful, by the way, singing 'Silent Night' in German and making the bride's mother smile like a lighthouse), back to Waterloo to set up 280 handmade Christmas cards out on tables, sing in the chorus for Handel's 'Messiah', serve wine, mince pies and cards to the audience, go back and sing the second half of 'Messiah' - note to self: didn't realise the Hallelujah Chorus was the original Standing Chorus, must try it in the Middle Bar at Sidmouth and see what happens - clear up and schlepp back home with 260 handmade Christmas cards, 120 glasses, 2 cases of leftover wine and about 80 mince pies. Sunday. Cleaned house, cooked lunch, helped child with homework, washed 120 glasses.

10 Dec 07 - 03:28 PM (#2212642) Subject: RE: BS: What are you up to this weekend? From: Rusty Dobro On Saturday night, 15 December, the locals at the Cratfield 'Poacher' pub, in Suffolk, will be driven screaming into the night by a group which is a spin-off, or perhaps a 'reeled away drunkenly', from the regular Thursday night sessions at the notorious 'Eel's Foot'. There will be country, blues, vulgarity, insults and a bit more vulgarity, all from a bunch of people old enough to know better. Usually going out under a different name each time to avoid writs, and paternity orders, they have been prodded by 'Mojo' magazine into adopting the name of the Trembling Wheelbarrows. A search for them on YouTube will serve to frighten off any remaining punters. Entrance is free, for reasons which will become obvious. |
