The day started well...

Some listening and surfing then to the grocery store for breakfast and lunch provisions...

At 1, down to pick up (drummer) bassist Keith for today's trip to Roslin re Friday's gig at his 60th (in December 2018) birthday party...

En route, a call imparting tragic news - his sister had died in a car crash in the early hours of the morning...

I took him home ...

He insisted Friday would go ahead...

Back to Roslin and, although we kind of knew we wouldn't be playing on Friday, we nonetheless ran through the set twice - the first without bass, the second with me depping for Keith...

The afternoon was reflected upon by guitarist and photographer , Stu...


Over to Anne's mum's for the fortnightly family tea - which ought to have been steak pie in honour of Anne's upcoming birthday but her mum is selling her house and so no cooking could take place this afternoon re viewing...

Accordingly, a trip to the nearby Chinese Food emporium with Olly & Kitty accompanied, of course, by "Dead Babies" - the default takeaway picking up soundtrack...



...and the meal was enjoyed...

Here, the birthday girl...



Mary will also soon undertake a family portrait at her art class - brother-in-law Keith is the chosen subject...



During the course of the evening, confirmation of Friday's cancellation came in from bassist Keith, advising reality was kicking in...

Terrible, dreadful news...

Home for "Les Miserables" and to advise invitees to Friday's event of the postponement...

To bed with prog rock in the cans...

Lowlight of the Day : Tragedy for an old friend...
