Miscellany 1:
On Saturday we went to Biggar to see Andy Fairweather Low playing in the Municipal Halls there.
Andy is on the left. |
A really great atmosphere in the hall and actually a really enjoyable evening. But, I have to say I was bored by much of the performance - all those plodding blues numbers, they all sound the same to me.
Things came to life when he sang his old Amen Corner hits and his solo hit "Wide-eyed and legless". His voice has lost none of its distinctiveness nor its Welsh quality.
Miscellany 2:
The countryside around Biggar |
Miscellany 3:
The following morning I went to Mass at St Isidore's RC Church in Biggar - an unusual place of worship.
Basically a converted stone villa. |
Steep driveway |
Not sure what this room would have been originally |
Van Gogh-like stained glass windows. |
Sounds an interesting time in Biggar and the photos tell a story.
