Painkillers doing their best but I shudder to think how sore this would be if I was taking nothing...

A day spent listening to music and wasting my time on Twitter and Facebook and ripping CDs I've never got round to ripping - F and part of G "accomplished"...

A visit from mum and sister Sheila at lunchtime and good chat over ham salad rolls and coffee...

Later in the afternoon, a venture outside - just 10 minutes or so...

Some images...



A strange wee question mark in this one...







It was "school's out time" as I walked gingerly along the path and back, no doubt looking like some old unshaven pervert with his camera...





Enjoyed a short piece from Canadian radio by Glenn Gould on the merits of the music of Petula Clark...

Debunked a tweet re possible asteroid collision with earth - the object in question is part of a Saturn V Rocket...

On Anne's return, some lovely home made soup and a cheeky wee expertly doctored from its basic state pizza...

A good visit too from Count Brodski tonight...

On TV later on, the "Morse" spin off thing and then a Tivo'd German documentary from BBCFour on Arvo Pärt...

To bed in pain avoidance mode...

Sleeping is getting a little better....

Highlight of the Day : Briefly outside...
