Slept in till around 8:10...

Got up and tidied up the mess from last night and washed and put away all the dishes...



Went to the computer and wrote this and surfed the net and uploaded new CDs to the Jukeboxes...

Anne finally appeared around midday, so a late breakfast. Then, after lazing around for an hour we went for a walk down to the Western end of Corstorphine, walked along through the town and then climbed the hill at the Eastern end – I took the camera but there was nothing whatsoever worth recording...

We were back home for 2:30 – a late lunch of leftover curry then football time for Anne and surfing time for me...

I secured two tickets for The Blue Nile gigs in Glasgow in July...

Both Queens and Hearts drew 1-1 with Dunfermline at home and St Mirren away respectively, Queens losing their early lead while Hearts equalised late on...

I surfed some MP3 blogs for the first time in a long time and ended up downloading two albums I used to have - Roedelius’ “Wenn der Sudwind weht” and Edgar Froese (of Tangerine Dream)’s “Epsilon in Malaysian Pale” – even though I already have almost 100 albums on my hard disks waiting to be burned at some point...

The evening was spent listening to the complete Grand Funk Railroad discography on shuffleplay then watching TV, both taped and live – “Moving Wallpaper/Echo Beach”, CSI:New York” and “Law and Order”, then, very sleepily, off to bed...

A pretty disappointing Saturday all told...

Highlight of the Day : Blue Nile live again...
