I had a good Birthday celebration thanks to all those who played Andy Hill, Fiona Katie and Jenny.

Missed my daughters who were not able to make it..

Today I have been doing somework on the website you may notice that the dates page is finally up to date and the marriages that FK is playing on should all be on there as of todays date...

Our Draughtsman is currently drawing up a 3D model of a harp for me I am hoping that will be finished soon so I can contact the suppliers of materials and get them to start sending me the wood pre cut for the harps . We can then start producing quality harps at a reasonable cost from home.

Fiona Katie has her second Audition on Thursday for Britains got Talent and she is shaking like a jelly - lets all hope it goes well for her.

Tomorrows Job for me is to keep out of her way I think I will be servicing the little grey ferguson tractor to see if I am able to get it back into commission I do know that the battery had had it once running it is my intention to get it sorted out properly I was hoping it was done but the guy who mended it last time has sadly let me down so it does look if I am seriously going to have to have a fiddle with it myself!!!

The Salam UK Band

Fiona Katie performed with the Salam Uk Band last evening and I am told that her harp playing went down well and I know that she would love to perform with the Band at some point in the Future .
Tomorrow Fiona Katie will be in Ripon performing at a wedding and on Sunday this week she will be performing at Music Port at Bridlington and is hoping that many people will turn up and support her as she will be providing her services for free....

As we speak Fiona is testing various microphones..

A Wedding in Helmsley

Today we drove up to Helmsley just outsidfe York and 30 miles from scarborough. Katie was performing at a wedding in the "Black Swan" So I had got up ealy this morning packed the bikes in the van , and off we set.
We made good time and arrived in Yorks a little after 12 then dropped Katie off and once we knew she was settled we parked up and decided to take a look around. It was not longbefore we spotted a free Mini bus to Duncombe house a stately home . I agreed with the girls we should go and have a look and thats just what we did,
After a quick look around Lucia and Olivia wanted there easter present so I gave them some money and we set off back to Helmsley where we promptly unloaded the bikes and set off in the direction of Pickering!.
A mile down the road and my youngest was out of breath and so we decided not to do the six miles but to just have a cycle down the road and then back.

It turns out our decision was a well balanced one as my peddle fell off and I had not got tools to put it back on and so I crawled back to the car park where I just had time to have a drink of tea from the flask before , Katie finished.

Poor Katie fancied a look around but I was in a hurry to get home and we were going to have a take away until we noticed all the local shops were closed !!!

After a quick tea I locked up our hens for the night and poor Kate totally wiped out went up to bed . All in all a busy day
