Volcanic Ash!!!!!!!!!!

I do feel sometimes, like I am back in school and I know Im due to do something like homework, which I keep putting on the long finger. However, Im careful not to flatter myself into thinking that there are people anxiously waiting for my occasionally interesting thoughts(blog). Although, I know one or two will often check out what Im up to, so I would hate to disappoint.

There is truly nothing in the world like these promo trips! Why? Well we all get split up to cover as much ground as possible, and when I say ground I mean PBS stations.
PBS is a truely unique product of American community. Its something, I feel every community should be proud of. To think that these stations are run predominantly on peoples donations is incredible. We recently visited one in Pennsylavania and were told that their funding for 2010 had been cut by 90% and that they expected the rest to go too....................

So now that Valentines is over do we all start getting ready for Christmas? It just seems mad that as soon as one thing is over the shops have some other event you NEED to celebrate. I call these Hallmark Holidays. Valentines was a lot of fun and I do enjoy making that little bit of effort. Even when I was a kid I used to make cards and drop them through a letterbox of some unsuspecting and usually uninterested girl in my area. I do feel the age of romance is dying so Valentines is a good idea to encourage people to make a little gesture of love.

So Christmas has been and gone and we are right in the thick of 2010! After spending 10 days on the Caribbean I feel ready for the remainder of JAnuary and whatever else the winter has to throw at me! Lovin being at home at the moment and am getting a lot done. Heading to London on Saturday to record some new material and have written one or two new songs as well which I hope to get down on track by the summer. All in all, its work work work. Even getting to the gym more regularly which is always welcomed.
