I think I've published that last one at least twice. I thought you will have enjoyed it so much you'll want to read it again, nothing to do with my incompetent blogging skills, of course!

Hi, Cita Ciega listeners! Apologies for not having blogged for ages. My excuse is I've been busy at work recently and haven't worked out how to access this from my laptop at home. There's some Jaws conflict or some such nonsense. For those uninitiated in the joys of screen readers for the blind, in general, or Jaws for Windows, in particular, and want to find out more, please go agoogling. Anyway, Cita Ciega on Aculco Radio which I do every Saturday, remember? It's not going to be live this week, I'm recording the show on Fri 23rd Dec and my guest will be a young lady whose initials are DG she was born in Syria, her family moved to Italy when she was 12 and now she's a volunteer on Aculco. It's going to be a wonderful show during which I shall be asking her to speak some of her beautiful mother tongue, Arabic! She even spoke about reciting some Arabic poetry which would be lovely! There will, of course, be some improvised music too. On Sat 31st Dec my guest will be Baluji Shrivastav, a North Indian classical musician, who has played with Stevie Wonder and Massive Attack amongst many others! We will be improvising together and it will be fantastic! The following Saturday 7th Jan Linda Shanovitch will be my guest, an amazing singer, improviser and wife of Baluji, with whom she has worked extensively, as well as in her own right. I could have asked both Baluji and Linda to appear on the same show but they're both too good not to have a whole programme each! Come Mon 9th Jan I am training with my new guide dog, Acorn, so won't be appearing live on CC and may not on the following Saturday 21st but keep listening and reading and you'll find out! Have a wonderful Christmas holiday, a very happy New Year and keep listening to Cita Ciega into 2012!
