Self made...

Playlist
Curtis Mayfield – The Ultimate Curtis Mayfield
Various Composers - Cello Music for Oliver
Various Composers - Musik in Sanssouci
Various Composers - Wien 1900 The Death of Tonality

Up late (7:30 am) and bringing this up to date whilst enjoying the funky sounds of the recently received Curtis Mayfield collection...

Disc one outshines disc two – in fact I had to turn it off halfway through the second disc it was so bad...

The first disc was superb though...

A call from sister Pam – still doing very well and getting back into the swing of things...

In the afternoon, we watched our second French film of the weekend, “Hidden” starring Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche – which, while it certainly seems to have split Amazon reviewers down the middle, we enjoyed – probably all the more so for the disappointment of yesterday’s “Gabrielle”...

Some mucking about with potential rhythm tracks for the next CBQ LP - and even tried writing a new chord sequence - but it turned out to be exactly the same as a song from my LP from 2003...

Ordered a new CBQ T Shirt with the Splinterheart cover thereupon...



From now on, my intention is only to wear self designed T Shirts...

To Anne’s mum’s for tea – tasty French lamb casserole followed by home made strawberry tart...

Kitty was as mischievous as usual...



...while Olly (it’s with a “y” now apparently) seemed reasonably pleased with his CD though it’s still up in the air as to whether he’ll ever actually listen to it...



I kept a copy for myself as it is a rather good wee collection...

Anne’s mum was impressed with my CBQ T-Shirt and my artwork mug and so, with this in my mind I took some pictures of her own paintings...



Back home and a new programme, “Bailey and Scott” (or something like that) entertained, followed by Annie watching Tivo’d “Corrie” while I delved into 18th Century flute music and the death of tonality...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : A good French film on a Sunday afternoon...
