Up reasonably early and to writing lyrics for the new pieces created yesterday...


...with four new items entering the canon, via random sampling of Ernest Hemmingway short stories - and a re-working of this, from the summer of 2019...


Almost the end of October...


...already...

Coffee assisted the writing...


Out for breakfast as, once again, I was on holiday today...


Along the road from the nice wee cafe, three Laura Cantrell discs picked up for a quid each at the Cancer Research shop...




I also dropped two pairs of boots into the cobbler's - he surprised me by saying they'd be ready by 4...

We'd walked down the hill from Crispycat Towers...

And so, and we walked back up...



Here's a view I used to take almost everyday but haven't done so for a good while - as I don't go out that much anymore...


Today we started two new programmes on our stupidly kind of accidentally subscribed to subscription channels - "Dead to Me" which I willabandon after two episodes) and "Emily in Paris" (which is good and which I wills tick with)...

Just after lunchtime, Anne was off for a meet up with chum Lynn, followed by a hairdressing appointment...

I took the opportunity to record draft vocals on the five new tracks re the lyrics written this morning and last summer...

At 3:40, I walked down to pick up the boots - taking the bus back up to the top of the hill...


Excellent work...


Practically two new pairs of boots...


The cobbler man's great grandfather (from Poland), his grandfather and his father were all cobblers - and his son is a.....cobbler...

He has been at his shop since 1982...

He has just turned 70...

He advised he will work on until he dies...

Hmmm...

Around 6, the EP returned with a lovely new hair do...


By this time, I'd commenced a mammoth podcast recording session - almost 3 hours, featuring 56 new entries into the collection over the last two weeks...

While doing so, I got up to date with the Tweeting of new physical acquisitions in 2020...


And that was about it for an enjoyable Friday holiday for Mr CBQ...

Lights out with the finished podcast in the cans...

Highlight of the Day : Creating...
