Slept in...


In dire need of a shave...


But, first, views...




Shave...


Today's classical piece, a welcome break from the plethora of large orchestral pieces on this list, with a Dvorak string quartet...


The beast was in its headphones...


Banana breakfast...


Today's random LP was a long time favourite - according to my list, the 20th LP I owned...





A visit from the squirrels - avoiding something or other...
  




The postie brought a bountiful pile of stuff...


...which turned out to be this lot, meaning nothing more is expected...









...for now...

Following these deliveries, the number of composers by whom I have string quartets, has risen to 208...

Hmmm - I could do 8 quartets a week for 6 months?

A new listening project perhaps?

An hour later, a courier delivery...


This was cardboard boxes - a revamp of the back room is required in order to free up space...


...meanwhile, Anne did something she likes...

The new painting was started...


What's that?  New painting?  Got any nuts?


Meanwhile...


Uh-oh...


Consternation as to exactly what to do...



At this juncture, I'd basically just taken down all the jazz CDs, put them in the boxes and put them back up again...



Consternation II...


III...


IV...


Hmmm...


One for tomorrow I think....


Consternation V...


OK, that's enough consternation...


Lights out...


Highlight of the Day : Deliveries...

Yes indeed, not is greatest moment - Alice Cooper's done one too!
