New hats!

The straw boaters have arrived just in time for the summer season which, as far as Eastern Straynotes is concerned, begins the first weekend in May.  The hats seem to be a reasonably good fit and should keep the sun off.  Shades of Zorro under the brim though...

It's great to be playing again after a bit of a lay-off.  Andy has been busy with solo projects while Jonathan went over to Utrecht to do a Master of Music degree.  We have a few private functions lined up for late Spring and Summer, which is giving us the incentive to add some new tunes to the repertoire and re-imagine old ones.  We are planning some public performances too.

Yes, I know it looks Photoshopped but that windmill really was at the end of the street on which I stayed.
