The early leavers nearly got run over by a speeding motorist. Mrs B has problems with her broadband connection which I am no longer able to resolve. Shame. In the evening, I go to a classical / gaelic concert in the Town Hall. Central performer is a cello player who moved to the island back in September 2004. He is accompanied by a pianist on an electronic instrument. There is also a solo singer, a girl member of the group Teine (Heat). Everyone announces their own pieces, except for the singer who just mumbles her way through the English translations of her Gaelic songs. Concert is attended by a shameful 35 and finishes fairly early in the evening at 9.15.
