Home is where the #cat is! #Nightshine was very keen for me to get out of bed this morning, but then appeared to be rather put out when I did …. Had a lovely rehearsal w/#PipersChoir last night & am looking forward to our #ChristmasConcert at #StBuryan Church next Weds! Also ->

Good news: the lovely people at #RuansMotorServices have managed to locate a reconditioned gearbox for our car! It’ll be another week before they can do the work, though, so I’m deeply grateful to Martin for giving me a lift to the supermarket this morning, & to my fellow ->

Argh! It seems our car needs a new gearbox — and that’s if the garage can even find one (it’s a 2013 car). Not what I need right now. Feeling a tad miserable, but nevertheless it’s lovely to see these wonderful #comments about recent gigs! Hoping car situation can be sorted in ->

It’s good to be home! Today Feargal & I popped up to David Hosking’s #ParcAnPeathChristmasTrees in #StBuryan (that’s David in the pic) — so nice to be able to choose a tree while it’s still in the ground less than 2 miles from our house! Looking forward to a bit of a break ->

Good morning #Heathrow! The flight was pretty dreadful — passengers from an earlier cancelled flight were put into ours, so it was packed — & worst of all, our duty free purchases never made it to the plane. Yes, we’ll get refunds, but we’d rather have the booze & tobacco! On ->

Photo from this morning’s #walk at my cousin Adam’s place after we’d finished packing all my stuff back into his basement (thank you SO, SO much, Adam!) — last walk we’ll be taking in the USA until my next autumn #tour. Tomorrow we fly back to the UK, & then I’m looking ->
