Friday and another day off from WFH...
Nonetheless, despite being a holiday, up early...
These were the views...
To uploading the fourth volume of "Disquietmusik", getting ready for its release a week today...
Then, later, out with Anne, who was off uptown to meet up with chum Lynn - so I tagged along intending to do some uptown stuff of my own...
Parked at Roseburn...
..and onto the bus - Anne alighted at Haymarket and walked to her meet - I stayed on till Newington for a trawl around...
Various purchases made in various charity shops...
The plan was to meet up in George Street for lunch at 1:30...
As I made my way down the Bridges, with some time to spare, I popped into Blackwells Books and, lo and behold, they were selling off loadsa CDs at just £1 each...
The guy at the counter said it was the biggest discount he'd ever given...
That discount was £268, over 20 CDs, acquired for just £20...
I made my way through Princes St Gardens to our meet...
..arriving bang on time...
The ladies soon appeared and a long tasty and leisurely lunch ensued...
...before a long walk back to the car...
Xmas is coming...
Anne and Lynn have been friends since school - I've known Lynn for over 40 years...
Time flies...
Home and some listening and ripping ensued...
Some chat on the Twitter about vinyl...
Here's what I have left...
And so to today's acquisitions...
This popped through the door before we headed out...
In the BHF...
I thought this would be nice Canadian music, given the mention of "New Brunswick" on the back but it's actually Swedish punk rock...
In the Cancer Research shop for £1.50 - over £30 on the Amazon - funky...
In the Samaritans...
...and in Shelter...
...this may have been a mistake of course...
I used to have this but sold it, now I have it again...
Then the Blackwells stuff...
Having sampled all of these, none disappointed - which is good...
With the new influx, no time to record this week's podcast...
Which means my Saturday wil spent mostly doing so - but, also, listening to some of thois plethora of new music...
It's all good...
Highlight of the Day : Bargain hunt...No, lunch with Anne and Lynn...
