Where's the week gone? I was going to post mid-week but somehow... didn't.

This is just to share a song that I had almost forgotten, until I heard a tiny clip on TV at breakfast time today, and had to find it to listen properly.

I probably shouldn't post it as it is likely to make my husband home-sick.

This is Jimmy Nail singing Big River. And yes - the guitar work is Mark Knopfler - he's a Geordie too, so it's his river as well. (My husband is not Manx born like me, he is a Geordie, a Tynesider, I met him when I went to Newcastle to university and stayed for 15 years! This song makes me homesick for the Tyne, let alone him!)

It occurs to me that many of you will live in places where these sentiments will resonate with you - I am thinking of [livejournal.com profile] petzipellepingo in particular - there is something about both video and song that makes me think of your lakes.
