At last ...

[Derek]

Due to the fact that I watched a few Jethro Tull hour long vids on the laptop made us run out of our monthly internet data usage. First time ever. Could have increased it but decided to wait for the new months renewal which is normally loads for us. So I have had a lot of catching up to do on x marks ...
Recently played a great festival in Somerset ... and 'yes' our fiddle player was well over a week due but she is a true trooper. Happy to say that 2 days later she gave birth to a lovely young boy ... unknowns to him he has been a member of the band and done a load of gigs over the months ...
Off to Shrewsbury tomorrow on the train for a day out, so will take lots of pics and post up. Its a lovely place with also some great old historic watering holes ...

She does look like she is trying to conceal a watermelon.
We always enjoy your pics Derek. Keep them coming. Xmarks is so much more entertaining than Jethro Tull.
Cheers....

Hi Derek .... great to hear from you ... hope you are enjoying retirement and that you and the family are ok ... I still have a great pic of you in the shop at the castle just outside Dumfries with the viking helmet on ... cracking weekend and laff that was on the first ever Burns Night at Ferintosh ..... Can keep you updated with gig dates. There are only a small handful at the moment as the band is concentrating on the recording of a new album n video. Might be good if you could come over one weekend when we have one of our monthly folk clubs, as the band usually plays as a sorta house band plus we could take off somewhere as well ....
