Little Stalky and Mystical Roo go to the Jazz Festival

We've just had the annual jazz and blues festival come through town and once again it's been a feast for the ears.  Things kicked off on Friday night and carried on through until Sunday evening with various bands turning up at local cafes and bars to perform their tunes.  The highlight for me is the concert in the park, which ran yesterday from about 10.30 all the way through to 16.30.  We had perfect weather for it.  Blue skies, sunshine and a gentle breeze that just took the edge off of the heat.  Mystical Roo and I made our way down to the park for lunchtime, armed with home made pizza, olives and wine.  And a chair.  Just the one.  Mystical Roo got the towel.  We set up a little camp, grazed on lunch, supped on wine and enjoyed the music.  It was a perfect Sunday afternoon.  We were even photographed by the local paper.  Who knows, Mystical Roo and Little Stalky may now appear on the social pages.  Looking rather classy with our green, plastic wine glasses.  Oh yeah.  My favourite musician and one who I've seen on a number of occasions is Paul Robert Burton.  Sometimes he plays solo and other times he's with a band but every time I find myself mesmerised by his sound.  I couldn't necessarily tell you what that sound is but I know that I like it.  So much so that I bought an album.  A signed album no less.  It's very good.  The perfect accompaniment to a glass of wine on the balcony with your Mystical Roo.  So that's another event attended by Mystical Roo and Little Stalky and another event that the town has put on for free.  I do feel very lucky that I get to enjoy this kind of thing, in such beautiful surroundings, without having to spend lots of money.  I hope everyone appreciates this and that the town continue to support this wonderful event.  Keep up the good work, town.  We salute you.
