The view from the office this morning...


And yesterday's work out there...


Having retired at three, I was up at seven and tidying up the mess made yesterday...

Again no pics of the kitchen but this the tidied back room...


The new feeding station is proving popular...



Moved the CD player back to the back room and brought the turntable through and gave a few records a spin...

Velvets...


Roedelius...


Francoise...



Gentle Giant...


...kind of...


...while continuing to update this - it's taking an age - I'm three weeks behind at present - but, once Canada is fully up, I'll probably post everything else up...

I've been writing the post Canada entries on a daily basis to try and remember what we've been up to since - which isn't that much...

Maybe I should've been outside...




Instead, I ran through the three Cohen songs and then a goodly number of the Capital Models' covers sets from the past few years - don't know what to do about that project now Andy's gone...

I could contact Keith and Jim and see if there's interest - it would be nice to do another gig for Jamie - but we have no PA now...

Out to my mum's, this her reaction to the new EP...


This when it finished...


Just kidding...

Over to Anne's mum's, Anne and Jane having now arrived home from London...

There was celebratory jelly...


While a very tired Kitty advertised smoked cheese...


...and chocolate biscuits...


Keth described winning a bet on footie...





Bob was a little under the weather - his granny seems to be doing ok but is still in hospital...

With her being ninety nine and a half it's touch and go...


I was pleased ot have Anne back...


While Olly and Kitty listed their current top ten tracks so their old Uncle David could take a listen to what's floating their respective boats right now music wise...








Back home, I played the three Cohen songs' original versions, each in turn followed by the CBQ versions...

In the Exec Producer's opinion, I won 3-0...

On the night I will perform two of the three featured songs, based on the Exec Producer's advice...

Late on, a very bright moon, which proved impossible to capture with any clarity - as this picture shows with some measure of clarity...


I did indeed listen to Olly and Kitty's selections...

Some of them were quite good...

Lights out...
