Up early and transferring Hawkwind albums to the jukeboxes, including a couple of live 2CD sets and a compilation...
Walked down to the bus and took it along to Jane and Bobby’s to pick up the remains of our cake, our new cutlery set and the car...
Drove home feeling not too great – streaming eyes and nose re this goddam cold...
Nonetheless, out to Loanhead around midday to my mum’s, as we’d promised her a birthday lunch and we’re now around six weeks on...
She gave us a lovely picture frame as a twenty fifth anniversary present...
Off to the Howgate, one of our favourite restaurants – I think the last time we took mum here was the first day of this blog back in March 2005...
Soft drinks all round as I enjoyed an excellent cullen skink followed by Scampi and hand cut chips and salad...
Anne had the soup of the moment followed by excellent beef pie, again with hand cut chips...
Mum forewent a starter but followed her oven cooked rib eye with potatoes, yorkshire pudding and veg with a passion fruit sorbet...
While mum enjoyed her sorbet, Anne and I had lovely coffee with a small piece of home made tablet...
After this enjoyable leisurely lunch we set off home, dropping mum off at her house on the way...
Back at Crispycat, I took to my bed for a few hours – by the time I awoke, Queen of the South had been beaten 2-0 away at Airdrie – luckily the other results went our way though, so Queens remain top by the skin of their teeth...
Watched “Merlin” – rubbish with plot holes a mile wide – before starting a King Crimson compilation project...
Brother-in-law Keith has had his interest in the group aroused by a work colleague who has been raving on about them...
Took a break for the much anticipated return of “Harry Hill’s TV Burp”, which Anne had kindly taped for us whilst she watched “Strictly come Dancing”...
Then “Have I Got News For You”...
Back to the King Crimson project – I’d decided on one piece from each of the 13 studio albums but, due to track lengths, I had to create special versions of several songs using editing software on the PC – a very enjoyable, if fiddly, task...
Back downstairs for “Match of the Day” while the final mix was burning to CD...
Off to bed, listening to my handiwork...
Highlight of the Day : Belated Birthday lunch...
