Netherhall Concert

Last night we went to see Amanda take part in the Netherhall Spring Concert at West Road Concert Hall.

There were about 15 mini-performances, from the full band and orchestra, choirs, small groups, and solos.

The choice of pieces was good, and the quality of performance was excellent.

Of course, West Road is an awesome venue, which helps a lot. The only disappointment was that so few parents turned up - the audience was pretty small, which was a shame.

Vroom....

No, not the start of the new F1 season!

The Baldock Bypass is now open. This makes a considerable difference to my commute to and from work - saving me about 15 minutes in the morning and about half that in the evening. Great stuff!

It's still too long, really. And there aren't any other improvements in travel times I can look forward to.
