Up at 5:15 and making the final push to get this up to date post the Canadian trip - in all 22 days worth of entries were posted today and now I'm finally back up to date after being three weeks behind for too long...

Out for brunch just before 11, to Jacob at Haymarket - a very tasty time indeed...

On the way home, a stop off at Jane and Bobby's - Anne's mum's TV seems to be on the blink so an old one from their cellar was to be resurrected...

Back home and more work...

Then, around 2:30, out - noting some lovely late blooms in the back garden...

To my mum's - here she is in full swing, eating a cake as usual...

Life is short and cake is good...

I think that's her motto anyway - just as well she doesn't have internet access...

Then, to Anne's mum's and a TV swap done...

Mary has started her latest painting - stripey deckchairs...

I suspect it will be good...

Home and working on the covers project, editing the long tapes into individual songs for easier analysis re possible recordings a la "Starman" and "Dakota" yesterday...

Mid work, a call from Anne's mum - the replacement telly has gone down...

Another hour and half round there for me, trying to solve the problem, ended with the previous telly replacing the replacement, the latter seemingly unable to be roused from standby...

Plugs were switched about and leads were changed and fingers were crossed as I drove back home...

Finished the editing work, then quickly recorded the seven missing/botched up songs from the previous sessions...

It's all good...

Weekend over...

Highlight of the Day : Finally getting this back up to date...
