Crash bang wallop,again
I came home from our weekend away to find my PC making strange noises and after letting me back things up (luckily!), it promptly switched itself off. The PC engineer came today muttering about corrupted hard drives and the PC failed to boot properly. So I'm now without a PC for a few days and must resort to pencil and paper to write with. I've started on my new orchestral piece and so have been busy working out the details of the Tippett-like welsh fairies. It's probably good for me to do things manually once in a while. I now need to bring St. Patrick into the picture, to give the fairies a sermon on Faith moving Mountains; I think I need to dig of the hymn tune St. Patrick's Breast Plate.
