A private concert.
This is Jimmy, a gentle man from a traveller family. He made me cry.
As Auchindrain Museum opened to the public again today, Fred and I shared a wonderful ten minutes with Jimmy as he sang a beautiful and yet incredibly sad song he had written himself about how his two great uncles were conscripted as young men and never came home. Neither of them could read or write, they loved the simple life in Argyll and had no idea where they were going or even why. They died at the Somme.
