@lucypepper Good to hear from you. Real life is getting in the way of my virtual self. Maybe I should outsource the overworked part.

All work and no play … Yalla!!!

Yalla!A welcome break from the stresses of moving came on Sunday evening with our annual pilgrimage to listen to one of the greatest voices in the world, Khaled. I bought his first album released in the UK, Hada Raykoum, in 1985 and have been a devotee ever since. Now aged 45, Khaled’s voice is better than ever, and he enjoys showing off his skills. Searing emotion or dirty grooving, impeccable timing and a band that swings as tight as the JBs at their best.

Shukran, Khaled!
