janewilliams20OK, so Friday was a bit manic.
Work stayed interesting, challenging, etc. Various messages throughout the day from people who couldn't make it, were turning up late, etc. Left at 3:30 on the dot, via Frosts garden centre - a voucher for a Free Bear just had to be used! And got some day-glo pink aquarium gravel for Dragon-newt bases.
Got the place sorted. All who were now meant to arrive, did. Great evening chatting, talking harps, etc.
And I've got posts done to Swords and Shadowworld, so can stop feeling guilty about either.
Harp weekend workshop - fun!
Saturday, up earlier than the rest but a lie-in by my standards, some time on laptop sorting stuff. Breakfast, then on to Harps! And I now know far more about them than I even knew existed. Gwen really, really knows her stuff. Chat over, on to playing the thing. And back to basics, and this time get it right. As I suspected, I've picked up bad habits. If I can get rid of them, it's slow and frustrating now, but I'll be a far better player afterwards. Anyway, we have learnt a Tune.
Wire-strung harps sound wonderful!
Gareth delivered Bryony and Charlotte around 7:30, then vanished.
Dinner, Georgian breakfast as Gillian promised - yum!
And then the two girls took over Gwen and they're going through the stuff we did earlier. Adults sitting in dining-room and kitchen chatting, I'm up here doing this and checking Ebay.
Sleeping accomodation easier than expected due to drop-outs.
