A day soundtracked by compilations, pictures of which garnered some interest on the Twitter...

The skies were good on the way down the hill with excellent music in my lugs...

Up to Tollcross this lunchtime and a very tasty compilation found at the BHF for £2...

Along with two £1 titles from The xx at Shelter...

Nice...

I thought I didn't have one of the Francoise Hardy tracks on the French comp but, on checking a few days hence, I find it's actually on the box set which is part of my "Best of the Best" playlist...

Not to worry...

Some telly watched - most likely "Have I Got News For You" and an Irish serial called "Dublin Murders" which is not very good...

Again, not to worry...

Late on, we noted the streetlamp in front of Crispycat Towers has been replaced...

I kind of like the effect but just as well we have good curtains...

Lights (inside anyway) out...

Highlight of the Day : New music...
