Getting started! And Fringe #1 2010

Well, this is about the fifth time I have tried to create a blog. I thought I had already started one, including some great photos and a narrative about my family, but I can't access that one any more. Maybe this time, I'll do the right things and actually end up with a blog that "works".

We've already been to a few things in The Fringe - a day of eating and drinking in Rymill Park, and two concerts. One was brilliant (I'd seen it last year and wanted to see it again) - the songs of Lulu, Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Petula Clark and Dusty Springfield - my kind of music from the 1960's. The other was pretty good but the vocals were a bit weak - 9 musicians and 4 vocalists playing Steely Dan stuff. Great music.
