Montrose Music Festival


The first Montrose Music Festival takes place this weekend.

We went to see the Average White Band last night. A terrific concert, which inspired much ill-considered dancing!

Today (Saturday), we listened to Malinky in the the Black Abbott.

Then to the George for some Blues.Daniel Smith and T Bone

A key to the highway. Dick Frost are you listening? Clapton's version!!

Finished the night in the Market Arms - cajun type music - Boogaloosa. Terrific day but more ill considered dancing!!

May Bank Holiday Weekend

We spent two glorious days in Perthshire on May bank holiday.

First day - walked near the Hermitage trail - which has the distinction of the tallest tree in the UK!

In the evening, we had a lovely meal and even nicer beer! We both recommend the Braveheart from Moulin Brewery.

Day two - wonderful weather!! Climbed up Birnam Hill - which gives 360 degree views for miles.

See the video on YouTube.
