Isn't Life Strange

This is not me get all philosophical again but the name of one of my favourite songs by the Moody Blues. Using that word "favourite" again, now that I have seen Fairport Convention twice (and booked to see them again at Gaiety on 13 February - get your tickets now!), other than the Beatles, the Moody Blues must be the best band that I have never seen.

And I had two tickets to see them tonight in Newcastle. The only problem was that I didn't consult Marie at the time about my idea that we should spend this week in the North East as our holiday - we went to the South West last week instead!

I am hoping that the friends that we gave the tickets to enjoy them as much I would have done. I've only subjected you to their music twice - "Question" was used for a walking race at the NSC and "Tuesday Afternoon" for the the Barrule Fell Race on Tuesday evening a couple of years ago - before it was moved to Friday.

I'm about to book some travel without consulting the other person who I think is going with me - hope that I don't have to give that ticket away or there will be more moody blues.
