Up before dawn to finish off the podcast...

The view from the office this morning...


Snow continues to be here...






Eventually, the sun came up...




I have not bought any CDs so far this year but new music continues to accumulate...


...including stuff downloaded this morning...

Breakfast was expertly prepped poached egg and mushrooms on toast...



Out for a walk...


We were not complacent about slipping and falling...


It was rather cold...



Goodie drops were secured...


Back to the garden...




...and home...


Anne's new painting is lined up already...



...while my work with Andy Long and Edward Spark will be out on Andy's Bandcamp page at some point...

Relaxed with some Paganini...


His String Quartets are unconventional, in that they are more like violin showcases with backing from the rest of the quartet, as opposed to “normal” ensemble works like most quartets...

Nice...

Add Fast Show GIF...

Lunch and the final episode of "Star Trek Discovery" season 3...


Not as engaging as 1 or 2 and, we found that, when having to wait on the next episode rather than binging, we are not as sucked in...

Oh well...

Still good...

Late afternoon, recorded the music only Top 10 Acquisitions of December podcast - which excludes most of the Xmas presents I received, as the downloaded versions were already in previous months' top tens...

A nice selection...


Today's random LP was, again, not played today - maybe tomorrow...

This is possibly the first LP I ever owned - my dad used it to introduce me to classical music, pre age 7...


So my dad is indirectly responsible for all of this stuff I do now...


I defaced the cover back in the 70's when I bought a Tony Ashton & Jon Lord LP with no cover and decided for some reason that this sleeve should house it...


Idiot...


First goodie drops of the day enjoyed late afternoon...


...and Anne's latest painting took its place on the wall...



A couple of episodes of "Upload" (sucked in) enjoyed, pre second goodie drop of the day re tonight's tea...

I eschewed the chips...


..but kind of negated that by partaking of half a slice of carrot cake...


...before we enjoyed "Not Going Out" and two episodes of the new series of "Engrenages" (Spiral) which we started to watch last weekend...

Highlight of the Day : All of it really...
