Le Vent Du Nord


I had managed to see Kate Rusby at Celtic Connections & I also caught the above band from Quebec. Much as I enjoyed both events, as I left the latter at the ABC Sauchiehall St @ 10.20 p.m. on a Friday night, you see all that is so wrong with our country or maybe that is just because I am growing old & grumpy & because I do not imbibe alcohol.

The contrast could not have been greater. One minute I was watching a marvellous band from Quebec (I believe the Minister for Culture was present) & then outside, there were so many drunken neds (male & female) roaming about being obnoxious.
