Drop some sugar in my bowl...

So, sticking with the song lyric theme, this one's from Nina of the Simone and "some sweetness in my soul" and indeed this is what the Lunicorns have enjoyed over the past week or so.
Inspired by Pat Butcher in tonight's ep of 'Enders, we feel compelled to compare life at the moment to a game of poker. That said, the Lunicorn's would probably fold at this point and not engage with the game, however, let's assume we'd play on...and if so, we'd be upping the money to maintain our 'blind' status. Crikey, why is everyone so interested in seeing our cards? That said, we've got one heckofa hand to play, and play it we will, when the time is right. So there!
Onto other recent news. Well, we've just returned from the beautiful Isle of Anglesey. Sleepy pubs, long walks and a wee bit of sunshine. Red Wharf Bay was our favourite, watching the boats bob in the water in the morning, and then high and dry by lunchtime. Such are the tides of Benllech! Still, it meant we were able to walk home from the famous 'Ship Inn' across the vast sands and listen to the crashing waves. Afore that, we found ourselves in Liverpool and admiring the Liver Birds at the Pier Head. As we approached the Ferry, we were greeted by a piping of 'Ferry across the Mersey'. No matter whether you're from that manor or not, it IS moving hearing that song. Call us sentimental! Had lunch in the Albert Dock in the Ha Ha bar and visited the famed Jacaranda and the Heebie Geebies (one Lunicorn has familial associations with the latter two so it was particularly touching to see the John Lennon murals in the Jac). And on that note, the John Lennon Airport's mission statement is 'Above us only sky'. Just imagine, how cool? I wonder if in Glasgow, we should change ours to 'Welcome to Glasgow Airport - above us only Skye'.
Met a fabulous true Welshman called Cyril, who talked about Bobby Burns and the merits of John Smith.
Oooooooooh, back here in Lunicorn land, we're very excited about our new cd out next month. It's our first Unicorn meditation for children and the two meditations are entitled 'The Rainbow and the Ribbon Tree' and 'The Wishing Lake in the Sky'. Officially launched at Body & Soul in Glasgow, copies available from us direct or at a variety of stockists. Entirely channelled and developed by Lunicorn with a bit bit of help from musician impressario Allan James and design by the extremely artistically talented Ewan Burnside. And this is just the first of many, so watch this space.
Congrats to Rach and James with their new pad, to mr and mrs Witch hiker with issue 2, to Andy (you must be loved up because we haven't heard from you), and to all the decent good people out there who occasionally happen upon our blog and even more sporadically leave a comment....
Workshop on Sunday at Gather for the weans and following week for kids at Studio 26 and then for adults too back at Gather. Can you seriously resist?
Drenched dandelions of summer and lots of loveliness.
