slow down and breathe

gosh, this year started off with a bang and its been going like the clappers ever since!

Just drawing a quick breath to let you know there's a new blog up on my blogsite with a free mp3 giveaway ...... you can get it by going to

this one's a good reminder that the view and the journey is far more important than the destination, so it pays to slow down and taste both. I've just been on a gigging weekend away and had the opportunity to do exactly that. A trip to the country always calms me down - how about you? I think its something to do with the pace of life, the relaxed and friendly welcome of the locals, and the fact that I'm surrounded by the glorious evidence of nature and the Universe at work.
