Juuso and I try out some Hohner 'Little Lady' miniature harmonicas during our whisky tasting session
WOW. Another Hogmanay celebration been and gone and first blog entry of 2012. Although we’re up late, there’s little evidence of hangovers – Mikey’s the only one really suffering.
After a lazy breakfast Juuso and I spend some time in the studio messing about with some of my newer songs, with Juuso improvising bass on an electric guitar. Maiju and Juuso have suggested an exciting project for 2012 which we hope to get underway when we’re in Helsinki for Stompin’ at the Savoy in April. Watch this space
Margaret spends the later part of the afternoon in the kitchen cooking a roast, Yorkshire puddings etc for dinner and then we all sit around the telly and watch Sherlock before returning to the dining table and embarking on a whisky-tasting session. Maiju and Juuso brought a huge selection of whisky miniatures back from their road-trip up North and we manage to get through about half of them..Maiju keeping notes on our sore/rating of each.
