It seems like only yesterday that I was last over there in that Southwest of France. But it is now more days than weeks before I will be back... and boy am I looking forward to it. I am in need of a break, having spent the past couple of months getting a house ready to go on the market - no time for blogging - and thinking about working on another one. There is a whole lot more work ahead. But what a lot of fun it is to be setting up a new home! New shelves for CDs, new places for Tobias to play, a new backyard...



So extremely belatedly I would like to say thanks to some people before we see them again. And let them know that we are looking forward to a brief re-union. To all the great people that made Linzi and I feel welcome in Toulouse for New Year. Especially Yohan for sharing his home, giving me his copy of Agora Fidelio's stupendous new record and telling Murray to have a holiday. Also to Pauline for being cool and providing a great subterfugepartyvenue and the lovely Emilie for loaning Murray her car to pick us up and for being so complimentary of my photographs - I am glad that you enjoyed them and I am looking forward to seeing more of yours!


And yes, there will be pictures of a very special band. Alors, a très bientôt!
