One Jammy Bastard

...there's only one jammy bastard!

Earlier this week, after kind of discovering Julie Fowlis' music and checking her oot on the web, I found oot that on the very same day as oor Dour Heid's Tae Edradour Tour, Dougie Maclean and Friends are playing twa miles doon the road at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre. The lovely Julie is one of the "Friends" who are playing.

The gig's been sold oot for ages

But I've just had a phone call fae one o' the other "Friends" who are playing and I've got twa tickets Ya Feckin Dancer!!! A distillery visit/buyin whisky/a bar lunch wi' some SS gadgies/a backstage pass for the gig at night.

Somebody nip me, I must be feckin dreamin'
