At your age?

At the end of the school day I mentioned that I was going to a concert tonight; FFS at the Barrowlands. One of my pupils overheard and commented, "A concert - at your age Mrs Anderson?", which I thought was very funny! 

Anyway the concert was very good - Franz Ferdinand and Sparks have teamed up to make an album together. An unlikely combination but it worked - they sang a mixture of new and old music. So we heard both "Take me out" and "This town ain't big enough for the both of us" at the same concert! I would have enjoyed it even more if it hadn't been standing only because I was quite tired (I have always preferred to have a seat at a concert to relax in when I'm not jigging about). It was also crowded and very hot. The feeling of sweat trickling down my back is not one that I relish under any circumstances. 

Back home there is frantic last minute packing going on as my four boys get ready for their hill-walking holiday in the French Alps. They will be leaving early tomorrow morning.
