Paul McCartney at Glastonbury

I can hardly believe how long this good spell of weather is lasting here in Ullapool. When we came here last week I’m sure that the forecast was mixed, but it has remained warm and sunny with no rain at all. We have spent so much time outdoors, especially James, who has been very busy in the garden. 
This evening we decided to watch Paul McCartney’s highly praised Glastonbury set from Saturday evening. He is pretty amazing for 80 years old, and although his voice sounds older he can still sing well. He had a couple of guests join him on stage; Dave Grohl and Bruce Springsteen. It sounded to both of us as if the crowd was booing Springsteen, but thanks to a quick Google search it turns out that his fans like to shout “Bruuuuce! Bruuuuce!” which sounds a bit like booing! I was impressed, given his advanced years, that Paul’s set went on for three hours! During this time James had two short naps but Paul managed to stay awake for the whole time!
