A Blue Note day again today...

Third day of the week, third record shop of the week – HMV – and their “70% Off” sale continues...

In the classical department I found a disk of Murray Perahia playing the piano music of Robert Schumann for just £2 – and three DVDs at just £1 each – a Mozart disc, a Vivaldi disc and a selection featuring Beethoven, Brahms and Saint Saens...

If something’s priced low enough, Mr Quartet will buy it...

Footballing tonight, leaving Anne to watch Andy Murray lose in straight sets to Senor Nadal...

Unbelievably, I scored four goals and my team won 8-7, my 4th was the last kick of the ball...

A good game – much better than last week – but I’m still a fat, breathless wreck out there, despite a few of my old touches not letting me down...

Late on, added another 300 or so tracks into my Blue Note playlist on the Jazz & Classical Jukebox....

If I had the time, I would stay up all night listening to this on shuffleplay – but of course eventually I’d fall asleep...



Today’s picture is a blurry one of new wee three or so months old cat on the block, Rory Custard – who wants to play with Meg the Black Cat but Meg’s too scared and runs away whenever Rory approaches...

Such is life in the cat world...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Four goal hero...

Aye ok fair enough...

Truth be told at least 3 of their goals were my fault (including the corner I parried into my own net)..

Still puts me one to the good though...
