The above contains this...



...and the above contains this...


The last three episodes of "Supernatural" enjoyed...

Some atonal contemporary classical piano music entertained...
   


...as did Gentle Giant...


...and the new Spocks Beard, a present from Prog Rock Willie...

Meanwhile, a call from my mum to advise the end of an era as our "Aunt" Edith has died...

A permanent fixture of our childhood, a formidable lady and mother of six, grandmother and great-grandmother of the countless...

To my mum though, probably, her oldest friend - they met at school in 1941...

My mum and dad were only children so we had no real aunts uncles or cousins...
