Up early and back to the synth for final additions and tweaking before burning the last (last?) version of the new album...

The family was to have been going to North Berwick this morning to scatter Pam's ashes, as requested in her Will...

However, we had to call off as my mum was unwell...

She's on new medication which is having side effects...

A lunch for eight was cancelled too...

Instead, Anne and I drove over to The Shore in Leith for a very enjoyable duo lunch...



We were a bit early so had a walk around the dock area...













...before heading inside...



To Loanhead to see my mum - who now appeared to be high as a kite on her various "opiate based" drugs...



She seemed happy enough...

Our driving today was soundtracked by the new album, to which the Exec Producer gave an executively produced thumbs up...

Back home for some relaxing listening and reading before watching Germany v Denmark...

Germany were very frustrating, in an Arsenal, Barcelona, Spain kind of way - you know, trying to play a hundred "one-twos" and then walk the ball into the net...

Eventually they topped the group with three wins out of three..

Portugal also went through after coming from behind to beat the hapless Dutch, who go home pointless...

Updating this then bed...

Highlight of the Day : Finishing the album / lunch out with the EP...
