Mondays always seem a little uneventful after the weekend...

Today was no exception – apart perhaps from Anne’s tasty Trout based dish for dinner...

Continued the Blue Note project and mostly listened to jazz...

Started reading the Biography of Blue Note by Richard Cook – I’ve read it before but still find it fascinating how so much brilliant music came from the early enthusiasm of a German obsessed with American culture in the 1920’s...



On telly only “Curb Your Enthusiasm” pulled me from the jazz – tonight’s was the one where all Larry & Cheryl’s friends “choose” Cheryl after she decides to leave him because, when she called him from a plane that may well have been going down in an electrical storm, he asked her to call back in ten minutes once the Tivo man had gone...

Brilliant...

Highlight of the Day : Curb Your Enthusiasm
