Proms 2025

During my recent trip to London for work I slipped in some culture. One event was a trip to the Royal Albert Hall to watch and listen to a Proms concert.

The main attraction was Beethoven’s Fifth.

The paino concerto was good to listen to and technically a great exhibition. The piece ‘Bruckner’s Skull’ was quite different and interesting.

I obtained my ticket on the day and so was a ‘Prommer’ for the first time- in the standing area in front of the stage. A good experience but hard on the feet by the end!

A walk from Le Quillio

I have been to the cycle track on my bike before but this weekend Shaz and I went for a walk along the Hilvern. A calm, peaceful environment with plenty of shade. The latter aspect being very much appreciated on a bright and hit day.
