The snow, now a few days old, is persisting...








Up...


Initial listening were albums from 2020 from other people's best of the year lists which I downloaded just before New Year...


Today's record of the day was this, although I didn't play it today and will catch up "soon"...

The pics are from a couple of days hence...

Regularly feted as the best ever album in the German language, Fehlfarben's "Monarchie und Alltag" bought on release in Kassel, 1980. Saw it live in Berlin, 2018. Given I'm writing this on Wednesday coming, I can advise I also listened to the Record Store Live version in the car tomorrow too... 

Klassisch!





Mid morning, out for a walk down to the town...







In the bag on the way back up the hill were cakes...




...which were unpictured but were enjoyed during the course of the rest of the day...



...during which Anne continued to paint...



...and Netflix continued to act up...


Lunch with the "Umbrella Academy"...


...was followed by a brief visit from Fang...




I compiled this weeks' podcast, a day or so late, recorded the links and made a start on putting it together...

I'd asked Anne to be in it but she refused, so I worked on a recording of her asking, simply "How do like them apples?" made over a year ago, into a new CBQ track, which will open the first edition of 2021...

Later, some red wine was enjoyed...


...with tasty pasta...


...and good progress had been made...


Another Saturday slipped away...

Highlight of the Day : Creating a track "with" Anne...
