Tonight a couple of tapes arrived at Crispycat Towers...

They belong to chum Chris' mum and are of sentimental value...

One of them was in a bad way...



Anne and I took it to bits and rewound it again as best we could - transfer to CDs pre-Xmas is the goal...

Scored two free tickets for the Uriah Heep gig tomorrow night in Glasgow and so am going along with Dr Prog - we were going anyway, free tix or no, so, to get in for nothing is indeed a boon...

My second ever concert was the mighty Heep at the Edinburgh Odeon in October 1974...

Tomorrow they will play their latest album, their first for ten years, in its entirety...

Dr Prog set me in the direction of a free download of software called DVDshrink, which allows the copying of DVDs...

I duly downloaded it and, in the course of the evening, was able to make copies of Chris' Kraftwerk DVD - during the replay of which, a call came in from the world's biggest Kraftwerk fan, Count Brodski, as we firmed up arrangements for getting to Charlie's funeral on Friday....



On TV, the return of "Big Bang Theory" shone out like a beacon in the mediocrity which is a Wednesday night schedule...

Highlight of the Day : Tickets for the Heep
