Sunday and most of my listening today was new stuff - apart from "Mouldy Old Dough" of course...

While doing my mum's shopping today, I noted, for the second or third week in a row, a 3CD set of ELP for £5...

I swithered, then thought, "maybe I'll just make my own one" and took a pick of the track list...

Track 8 is a mystery of course...

Then, to my mum's with the shopping...

She was not too bad but still quite ill re this latest infection and the side effects of her latest anti-biotics...

So, no pics - but here's the cupboard at the top of the stairs ...

I recall reading the three books on the left when I was small - history was my favourite of the three and copying a painting of Henry VIII a favourite pastime at the time...

Home and dressed up re a celebratory lunch this afternoon...

Out...

...to Tynecastle Park - home of Heart of Midlothian...

A birthday lunch for Anne's mum - who will be 88 on Thursday...

Some beers were partaken of...

Halloumi starter for me...

Prawn for Anne...

Fish & Chips...

Cheesecake...

Some crumble thing for Anne...

Niece Kitty, looking good...

Youngsters at a table these days...

I finally got their attention...

Kitty will be appalled with this one...

But will like this one, maybe...

Home for some listening and probably too many episodes of "Chuck"...

A call from sister Sheila re mum...

Ill, yet again...

Luckily, I had partaken of a few beers and so could not attend...

Which is probably not the best thing to say when your 90 year old mum is ill..

Hmmm..

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Birthday lunch...
