Turning over the Compost Heap

 The compost heap while being turned over with a rake.

Should help to provide good nutrition for the garden.

Apple Orchard Amidst Yellow-Flowered Fields

 Some nice shots from a small orchard in springtime Eastern Poland.

 Thankfully, a professional gardener has given the place a kiss of life.

 It was great seeing the apple blossom with the yellow-flowered fields in the background.

 The fields of yellow flowers are for local margarine production.

Hopefully, there'll be a decent yield of apples in August/early September.

Bear McCreary - Warsaw Progresja (21-04-2025)

 A few nice shots from the Bear McCreary concert at Warsaw Progresja last Monday:

This gig was a fantastic audio-visual experience.

Bear McCreary and his great band provided a perfect balance of material from McCreary's film/video game tunes and recent Rock album, The Singularity.

From The Singularity, the standout tunes, for me, were Tatarigami; The End of Tomorrow; and, of course, Tears for the Dead Life'.

From the film tunes, Dance of the Druids was amazing.

In fact, everything was amazing on a great night.

Class musicians on stage with two completely different kinds of singers (Brendan McCreary and Morgan Sorne), this worked really well.

And, of course, a great finale with Godzilla (Blue Oyster Cult = one of my favourite bands, have been blessed to see them quite a few times).

 Bear McCreary and his band taking thoroughly deserved rounds of applause at the end of the gig:

 Came out of this gig feeling really uplifted, in the night-time air.

Another Buckwheat Meal

Yet another buckwheat meal.

This time, with cottage cheese accompanying chick peas, cherry tomatoes, green olives, camembert cheese, and of course, the tried and trusted, buckwheat.

It's good to be reminded of the real meaning of Easter, of course.

My April Wine Tour T-Shirt

Very rarely buy tour t-shirts but made an exception for April Wine (after waiting for many years to see them).

Was happy to see that the back of the t-shirt was full of tour dates:

The setting where I saw April Wine (with Uriah Heep and Tyketto), Manchester Bridgewater Hall, was brilliant:

The sound quality for all three bands was fantastic.
