Up early and working…


Anne had been making buns...


All a bit too much for Meg the Black Cat – back to sleep for her…


Out to mum’s and moving the furniture out the living room, noting further graffiti, this time from September 1972…


Job done and ready for the redecoration...





To the hospital under interesting skies…






Mum doing well…


…but won’t be out for a while as intravenous antibiotics still very much required…

Home and more music work…

At 7:30, to Castle Brodski to pick up our guests for the evening…

Gifts were exchanged between the Count and your correspondent – burns of music by Karl Bartos, Acqua Fragile and Kraftwerk for me and stupidly double bought Mussorgsky, Borodin and Nielsen in return…

Much drinking and carousing till 3am…

Including an excellent meal from the fair hand of the Exec Producer…



Meg the Black Cat did her best to get in on the action…


…and her cheekiness was much admired by Alan and Penny…


Count Brodski particularly enjoyed a goodly number of the iced buns on offer…


Sadly a piece of particularly crispy chicken did for my front tooth – a fourth repair now required…

By the end of the evening, Meg the Black Cat was encouraging us to get out the old photo albums to show Penny how the Count looked in his younger days…


A very enjoyable night

Highlight of the Day : A visit from the Brodskis…
