I had planned to write a post about the sounds we heard on Saturday in South Shields at the Foghorn Requiem, but Sarah Angliss did such a good job of writing up what I experienced that I decided to link to her post and just put up a few photographs, which I hope serve to reinforce some of what she said.
The only thing I would add is a personal note to say that the company I had on the trip was delightful and made for an even better day.
