I’ve done my last public gig of the year at The Kilo Wine Bar in Quorn. Simon and I did a couple of 45 minute(ish) sets between 5 and 7pm. Parking is a bit limited so I’m feeling the ache partly from the playing and partly from carrying my double bass and other gear a couple of hundred metres along the road but, that aside, it was a good end to the gigging year.

It definitely won’t be my last music making of the year but probably the last time the double bass gets an outing in 2025.
