Another weekend over, indeed another month over...

Here's January...



Woke at six to find the sound from my headphones was only reaching my right ear...

Up immediately and tested them on a different MP3 player – somewhat relieved to find it was a headphone, rather than a player, fault...

To Tesco, arriving around 6:10 and new nut-phones purchased...

Back home and I was reaching the final stages of the big CD listing project...

This, however, was interrupted with another visit to the gym, this time with a playlist of 3 minute songs – on the basis of today’s visit however, I think the 5 minute song playlist is probably a better idea...

Back home for breakfast around 10:30 and to see Andy Murray crash and burn before I returned to the listing...

By lunchtime (leftover Jambalaya) I had every CD on the list – except all my CD singles – so very nearly there – just a few hundred to go...

With any venturing forth once again precluded by Anne’s lurgi, we watched the James Bond film, “The Living Daylights”, loaned to us by Chris-with-a-ch, on the basis that some of the early scenes were shot in Bratislava – we are to visit this city later this year...

Of course, we watched it under false pretences - the film was made in 1987, pre the end of the Cold War and so the Bratislava shots were actually filmed just over the border in Vienna...

All in all though, a reasonably enjoyable, if somewhat dated, romp...

Post that, some general mucking about on Youtube – and learning Pink Floyd’s “Comfortably Numb” – one of my all-time fave songs...

In the evening, posted up ten new podcasts to the Cloudland Blue Podcasts blog and gave a few of them a listen while I surfed...



“Match of the Day 2” featuring Man U's demolition of Arsenal entertained, as did the, apparently, last ever edition of "The South Bank Show"...

Of course that show should really have a home at the BBC where ratings aren't supposed to matter - I'd noticed in recent times it's been a shadow of its former self, with product tie-ins being the order of the day...

Still, sad to see it go...

Highlight of the Day : Almost completing the list...
