I nearly didn't make it to the gig.

Both my children had been ill the week before, then my Mum, who was supposed to be babysitting caught it., so my husband said he'd stay at home. I didn't find anyone to go with until about 5pm.

It was totally worth it, even though we missed the first two songs *gah*, especially as I missed half of the 09 Roundhouse gig, due to being punched my some knob-head piss artist and having to go and sit in the bloody security office, gutted.

Oh dear, I'd forgotten how that music makes me well up! Bagpuss! (And Robeson! The video works so well with it and it was really quite an emotional thing to watch it all big on the screen with them doing it live... awww...!)
