Ex Libris

It was great to finally make it back to the Music Library for a session now that their refurbishment is finished. There was no bad weather stopping us this time – although Leeds at home tested a few folk’s priorities! Huge thanks to Lee and the team at the Library for all their help and hospitality. It’s a lovely room and we’ll look forward to returning there before too long if they’ll have us back (we think they will). We had some very enjoyable post-session analysis at Nation of Shopkeepers too. Here’s what we heard (shhhh!):
