Wordless Wednesday

DSC_0453

Last Saturday I had 15-20 minutes to spend between busses. I saw some tents in the park so strolled over to see what was going on. Whatever I’d expected to find, bagpipers in kilts were not included among my guesses…

I think there was some kind of musical corps gathering going on, there were some more typical brass bands too.

Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la la.
‘Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la la.

You’re All Invited!

CIMG1704

A fanfare to celebrate ‘The Grand Re-Opening’!

Did you have trouble accessing this blog yesterday? I’m so sorry. I didn’t notice myself until luckily one of my most faithful followers alerted me to the fact. To me everything looked all right, because I was logged in. However, I had been going over some settings, and in connection with that I must have happened to inadvertently change my permission settings from public to ‘invited readers only’. Since I had not invited anyone, that meant that for a day or so this blog was visible only to myself!

I assure you, even if I have had to cut down a bit on regular posting lately, I had no intention of withdrawing into total seclusion!

If you missed yesterday’s post, it should now be visible here.

PS. Today’s picture is of our official summer street musicians who are playing daily in the streets and squares and shopping malls etc in the summer holiday season.
