St Piran’s Day, Daffodil and Singing

Redruth was buzzing today, all in town for the St Piran’s day celebrations. I especially loved the stilt walkers.

Later, on my way to sing in the Market Hall, one of the stilt people called to me, “Hello, lovely lady! Would you like a daffodil?”  Of course, I said that I’d love one but please would he hold it for a moment while I took his photo for my blog!

Singing Cornish songs in the Market Hall with The Ingleheart Singers, and with an enormous, enthusiastic audience, was an absolute delight. Thanks to Sue for the video. You can see I am holding my daffodil.

Blue Horizon, Senses and Lovely Harmonies

1  We could see the sea from our bedroom window today, just a blue stripe on the horizon about seven miles away but such a joy!

2  Feeling the warmth of the sun on my face and back when walking aroung Truro, smelling the hyacinths outside the Royal Cornwall Museum and hearing the seagulls’ cries, a sound which I love, reminding me how lucky I am to be living in Cornwall again.

3  Singing ‘Cornish Lads’ by Roger Bryant – it’s so good it gives me the shivers! Then, getting to grips with Fleet Foxes’ ‘White Winter Hymnal’ a most haunting set of harmonies. How I love my singing with all those  voices of my friends.
