Cathy MacDonald's Weekly Mantra
Post categories: Greetings
| 08:05 UK time, Sunday, 18 July 2010
"And she shall have music wherever she goes" should have been my mantra this week, but it wasn't Banbury Cross that I visited but my home , where the 15th started on Wednesday and ran till Saturday, where Celtic rock band headlined the closing concert. Great to get a few days at home with family and friends - especially when the distance can seem so far, what with 300 miles or so of road and a couple of hours by ferry.
At this time of year we like to catch up - there's something so right about remembering summer days - despite the weather - with those whom we love. It's a time of home-coming, of getting together. Indeed many visitors to the island try to ensure that their trip coincides with the Festival. And in between, we can keep in touch by post, by e-mail, or better still, with a musical dedication. Why don't you say Hello to someone you haven't seen in a while, or who has a special day coming up, by letting us know. We can choose the music for you if you like. Classical, traditional or a film score - just let us know what you'd like to hear and we'll give them a mention on the Greetings programme. Drop an e-mail to
