The Festival pay my airfare here, and my hotel for six days, and I pay for six more, and I get to interview and see masses of wonderful musicians. Sly and Robbie next week!
Then I get home, write up my features, and get paid for that as well - how wonderful is that!
I don't take a single moment of this for granted!
Do you think I should ask Katie Melua if I can touch her face?
She is indeed! While I flog myself silly researching musicians, and completing interviews, and watching them play live, she is busy either watching the football in the apartment, or doing touristy things around the city, so we are both having a wonderful time!
