Lucy writes, well well, well  another week and St Patrick's Day to boot.....

So far no music today but I fell down walking the dog and whacked the small of my back and it is sore, so I am being very lazy and quiet, but I think I will play soon.  So what should it be?  Well, I think I have to keep on keeping on with the two double jigs.  (Woodford and Boyz).

This week's photo has nothing to do with irish music, but evokes something magical - as if there are water sprites at work in our local river.  Irish music has a lot of magic in it, so that works for me!

Sunday 17 March - A run through of Woodford
Monday 18 March  I did play I did I did - the two double jigs, Woodford and Boyz - and I rilly have to tune again.  Later in the evening I played a couple of hornpipes, just the melody, that I am learning on the concertina -- this because the daughter can do homework when I play the harp, but not when I'm playing the concertina..... they are, just for interest, The Good-Natured Man and Kitty's Wedding.  Kitty's Wedding is actually quite wonderful on the harp and I'm tempted to add it to the 'must learn' list.
Tuesday 19 March - Worked a little on the double jig set.  I think the left hand of Woodford is finally beginning to settle in.....  Otherwise, I was reviewing concertina tunes I'm supposed to know as my class starts up in April sometime....
Wednesday 20 March - Caught up in dealing with financial stuff - it is that time of year - I've only managed to play Amongst Friends - that being the tune I'm playing at this 'thing' in mid-April..... argh.
Thursday 21 March - so far I have not played a thing, working at the local library most of the day.  And now I'm sort of tired.
Friday 22 March - Spent 4 1/2 hours driving my little darling around to appointments and D&D -- I did have my teeth cleaned and finished a book while waiting..... I played Amongst Friends once and then Miss Johnson's and half of George White's and was out of time.
Saturday 23 March

And now we are three!  Big welcome to Laura.
