Brave little ducks

It's been a stormy day but exciting to watch the activity in the bay including these 13 ducks , bottom left, venturing out.A 17 cd boxed set of Jackie Dupre arrived a few days ago,and whilst writing the Christmas cards , up to 230, listened to her glorious playing masking the sounds of the gale.I had forgotten how glorious her interpretation was of Beethoven Piano Trio no 2' indeed the Largo con expressione , must be one of the saddest though loviest pieces of music ever recorded.i just hope none of the tears of musical bliss that I shed got on the cards else folk will think the blotches are Skye weather.
