This is how I was feeling this morning and indeed throughout the day, due to the mysterious sore neck situation...

I'd been awake since around two and got up just after five...

Views...

Nice flowers from the EP...

Today's classical piece, Schubert's final symphony...

..while the random record was Kate Bush - which I enjoyed more than I thought I would...

Breakfast - the last of the tasty Lidl toast...

Anne's painting continued...

WFH of course...

Also, some work with Edward Spark on the new CBQ album...

Again, involving the creation and uploading of fresh stems...

Don't ask...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Nice bread...

Listing, listing, listing...

Monday once more and up to do stuff before "having" to do stuff...

The views today...

Not sure if I mentioned sorting out the "cardboard sleeve" CDs the other day into trays...

Not that it matters I suppose...

Anyway...

Views...

Today, more Schubert in the Classical listening project...

...from this large box of delights...

A start was made yesterday on Anne's latest masterpiece...

More of yesterday's croissants for breakfast...

A liitle bashed but a nice change...

Pre WFH coffee...

Forgot to mention, along with the biscuits, this having been stolen from my mum's house - found it in a cupboard - I gifted it to my dad back in the mists of time...

Today's random LP was again produced by Conny Plank...

Michael Rother of Neu! with the boys from Cluster...

..going by the name of Harmonia...

Their best LP out of the two 70's LPs and the later release of demos with Eno...

Also in the offing, some electrical work at the back door...

Arranged...

A small twinge in my neck last night had turned into rather a painful situation today...

..but the squirrel did its best to keep my spirits up...

I don't recall what I did in the evening but, the new project underway re imagining it's a particular year and I only buy LPs that make it into the charts continued - by this morning I was up to 1974 - so, this evening I very probably finished off 1975 to post up tomorrow on the Titter and have people randomly respond with the number of LPs they also own...

It keeps us amused...

Here're the lists so far...

1959-1966...

1967-1969...

1970...

1971...

1972...

1973...

1974...

That'll do...

Our prize re the Zoom quiz last night...

Not really...

Up as usual...

Overcast and raining...

The day was brightened by the next classical choice in the 100 pieces, Schubert's Trout Quintet...

...and by the walls of the kitchen...

..and the eggs...

...and the puffins...

Out to Lidl for some provisions, seemingly chosen at random and unpictured - the only things on my list were croissants and milk...

Back home, post croissant, the random LP of the day...

Gianna Nannini, produced by Conny Plank...

Out to my mum's to do some tidying....

It seems, while she is not getting out anytime soon, there will be a visit with her to her house at some point for an assessment by physios and occupational therapists...

And so some tidying was indeed done - we found this - my family tree on my dad's side...

Back home, having stolen some biscuits...

A small, almost impossible to see cat, was looking to steal some birds...

This evening, another Zoom Quiz was in the offing...

..this time with my side of the family...

...and, this time, with each team logging in with 10 questions on particular subjects, the Crispycat team came out on top...

Our prize for winning the quiz...

Not really...

Another enjoyable evening...

A visit from the squirrel...

"Killing Eve" and other stuff recorded for later viewing...

The view at the end of the day...

Night all...

Lights out...
