Sunday - breakfast - in the end, I eschewed the Tomato Ketchup...





Some rehearsing acoustically and getting the equipment together, then, out to Roslin, where five new songs were added to the setlist...

All in all, it went well and was rewarded with a slither of home made Victoria Sponge...


...which accompanied discussions...


Then, to my mum's and a blether with her - still doing fine, thank goodness...

Over to Anne's mum's for the second last family tea at the house I've been visiting since early 1980...

Only six of us today, me, Anne, Jane, Keith, Maureen and Mary - an Indian takeaway and more Victoria Sponge...


Back home and a welcome visitor in the shape of Fang the Black Cat - who enjoyed some goodies before settling down in a quiet place...



After "Endeavour" I went upstairs to start with the editing of today's "tapes" - 2.5 hours, of which an hour was mucking about and chatter...

So it goes in a band...

Sounded much better than I expected...

To bed with the lads in my lugs...

Highlight of the day : Playing with the boys...
