267: How is it not the weekend?
I need the weekend to come. Even though I’m far behind with marking – further than I can ever remember being – I need it to be Saturday.
Day 348: A Busking Saturday
Today was spent conducting Morley And District Concert Band at Junction 32 in Castleford. The band sounded good.
