Village idiot...

An uneventful day...

Spent the early evening watching TV before retiring to the back room to this scene...

...where I rehearsed the 30 minute set for Secret CD on 4 November...

Tomorrow night I will travel again to Mr Peri Urban's house for our third full rehearsal...

Watched last night's premiere of the new USTV series "Flashforward" - reasonable and I will continue to tune in...

The storyline seems way far away from that of the book on which it's based though...

Researching that lead me to Robert A Heinlein's entry on Wikipedia...

I loved reading his books back in the eighties - I think they're all in the attic now - with so many CDs, there's hardly any room for our extensive book collection - so that's where the majority resides...

Ended the day with "Newsnight" and the laughfest that was Ed "The Village Idiot" Milliband trying to defend Gordon Brown's conference speech...

Best comedy of the week so far...

Highlight of the Day : Set runthrough...

Cloudland Blue Eclectic Selection

In a one-man crusade to encourage the world to broaden its musical horizons, David has been broadcasting a weekly Eclectic Selection of music from across his vast record collection since 2014. On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
