It's been holiday time, although I did manage to fit in trawling through a lot of the session tapes for SADN II which was great fun, and buying another melodica and tuning it to a'=442Hz. I've figured out how to make one at A=415 now but it requires a friend with a computer controlled lathe. 

I have a deluge of email to deal with, much of it about my forthcoming trip to Nova Scotia and Ottawa, playing individually and collectively with DG, Chris and Suzie leB. So I have four different concert programmes to remember and a recording session in Halifax to fit in as well. And I'll come back straight into sessions for Geminiani. So it's not a time for thoughtful diary entries really.

The release of The Red Red Rose has been delayed a bit. I'm not sure by how much yet ...
