Up reasonably early...


Looked like it was going to be a nice day outside...


...which is neither here nor there really as I would be inside...

Paintings from around this time in 1993...


Breakfast, post the downloading of some nice new music...


Can you see the robin?


What about now?


Now?


Thought so...

Anne's hare painting is progressing...


Hmm - a screw fell out the bottom of the laptop...


Lunch...


A visit from Fang...






Tea...


Oh, and listening to the proposed line up for "Sparklemusik" which has remained constant since last June but, today, I decided I wanted to add three collaborations...

I reworked "Crack a Smile", the one from last weekend with with Stu Cobley's guitar - slowing things down and adding new drums (which I'd created a few months ago re a proposed covers album) and then, adding in the vocals from "Super 8", the LP opener, which had to be speeded up (no pitch change though), to fit the tempo...

This is what I do..


Anyway, very pleased with the outcome - although, I think I will take out the "Super 8" vocal from the start and just bring it in at the end...

On telly, "Holby City"....

It's a bit weird right now but we will continue to hang in there...

Highlight of the Day : Music manipulation...
