Sunday car problems!

Busy at the moment creating a miniture symphony for the Junior Orchestra, but in the tradition of Ralph Vaughan Williams and his English Folk Song Suite I'm arranging a patchwork of sea shanties, so no original melodies in this one! When it's done I'll put part of it up.

Went out for a drive yesterday to take a few photos, just for a short breather break, and saw Wales very clearly from the Trentishoe Down, Started the car to move on and the engine fell out!!! (well not completely, but the bolts holding the engine in place on one side had sheared.) So spent the next 3-4 hours waiting for the AA. Apparently the bolts had worked loose over some time and they could have gone at any time. Glad it wasn't on the motorway doing 70! Got a couple of nice photos though and I'll put them up.

Thanks to Mandi for prompting this blog!

Definitely 'sea shanty' - your stuff had me hunting for a tot of rum. If it hadn't been raining so hard I might have braved it to Tesco's for a bottle! (It's 11.20pm!)

These are the four movements of the shanty symphony. I didn't realise I could upload midi until a minute ago! I'll put some more stuff up another time!!
