This term has flown by and I almost risk it ending without making an entry to my blog. Most of my time has been spent taking photographs and putting them on the web. The best of them are illustrated by the links below:
Slideshows or collections

We haven't been to see much. Martin Carthy and Dave Swarbrick at St George's Brandon Hill was enjoyed more by Wendy than me and two early evening concerts at The Church of St Salvator in Prague (Vivaldi's Four Seasons and Mozart's Requiem) is about all we have managed.
Our short half term trip to Prague was fabulous: we were very pleased with the hotel which was well appointed, comfortable and really suited us in every way.
We loved the transport system and all the sightseeing. The restaurants were not too expensive and the food was okay but, because we tried the Czech cuisine, a litle dull. We also tried a few local beers which were great and even the local wine wasn't too bad.

I have not practised my saxophone as much as I should have done but managed to pass my Grade 1 examination in November.
I have enjoyed listening to Karl Jenkins's The Armed Man (Review of The Armed Man http://www.adiemus.f2s.com/armedmanrev.htm) which I discovered thanks to the iPhone App Shazam. Because I can now read a note or two I am encouraged and have decided to have a go at Colston's Choral Society (but wonder if I have overstretched myself after the first rehearsal!).
