I'm a grandaddy!!

My daughter gave birth to a lovely girl on Friday, Amelie Rose. Mother and Daughter are fine.

I spent the weekend helping with running the National Recorder Festival which our branch of the Recorder Society hosted this year. A very busy weekend, but all went off very well and we had lots of complementary comments about the festival. I made some recordings of the mass playing sessions - 120+ recorder players playing all sizes from sopranino to Sub Contrabass. I'll be posting them on a website somewhere when I have tidied them up.

Now we are off to London in the morning to visit my daughter and her daughter. Looking forward to the visit, though not the trip. My wife wants to take a few things so we are driving. I'd have rather gone by train as driving in London is no fun and my daughter lives quite close to central London.

I'll just grab a quick coffee before I go and pack.
