At the very last minute!



At the very last minute that I have free  before scooting of to the Vodka and Cake party I shall be attending for New Years Eve tonight, I thought I'd come back to my blog  just before the New Year  kicks in.

 What a year it has been!

In between between dashing off to Dublin for Metameets earlier this  year,  packing a huge house up and kids,  settling into a new country,  trying to finish my next album 'Groove Passion'  (hopefully out early next year) and  starting a new and very exciting  project for Music in Virtual Worlds  I have had  my spirits kept up ( not the alcoholic type btw) by a plethora of wonderful people online.



 5 months ago I moved to Denmark and am now the proud owner of a very run down but beautiful  farmhouse which is in desperate need of love and attention and  an awful lot of  filler and  paintwork.

It is not  so easy to live in  another country and I try to keep up a bit, so each day  I read the Jyllands Post Thoughtfully but not always accurately translated by Google.
Biggest laugh so far has been this wonderful translation about  the recent eclipse that had me in stitches for days.

'Today's lunar eclipse began at .6.29. The end is the total.
Clock 8.40 will moon be gone, but when you must hurry to look up, while the Moon is about to crash'



My last blog for this year goes out  in thanks to the following people, who have at some point  have inspired me, made me laugh  and made a difference to my life  during the last year. It is by no means a comprehensive list and forgive me if I forget someone.
