About time....

...we wrote a bit of an update, I think.

What's been going on around here?  Well, the election has come and gone and Edward still has a job, thank goodness.  Gill wrote a blow by blow account of the day on her Elegant Sufficiency blog if you missed it.

We've finally found buyers for Edna's bungalow in Cottingham and now have the unenviable task of clearing it ready for the new owners.  We've put it off for so long but finally, the day has come. 

We've just returned from a cruise around the Black Sea, from Istanbul to Athens.  Our travelling companions had a good time, too.

There has been a cracking response to the two Raff CDs recorded in Sweden last year and Mark is thrilled by the outcome of both projects.  The first was selected as The Independent's recording of the week and the second is already receiving favourable attention, even though it's only been out a couple of weeks.  Of course, Mark's website has more details and he himself, would be delighted to give you chapter and verse.

We have further travel plans for the Summer and look forward to long sunny days with friends.  As usual, more frequent updates can be found over on Gill's blog but, in the meantime, here's hoping for plenty of alternatives to football!
