Here we go again...


A lovely day outside but I would not be there...



I'd be inside, WFH...


Pre breakfast, working on adding bonus tracks to the "Silversounds" collection, due out next Friday...


These will be all the edits of the original tracks which were used to create the brand new material from the main album, the 2021 remixes, which are reworks, applying recent methods to the old recordings to create the new...

Breakfast...


And to work...

Lunchtime, and 2 "Modern Family"...

In the afternoon, on a coffee break, I noted a starling which seemed to be complaining about the fact the clever crow had taken one of the feeders off the station to the grass again...

It shouted at the coconut...


...it looked at me...


...it looked at the coconut...


...and flew off...

Meanwhile, Anne's big flower became even bigger in the sun...


Rory Custard was also a welcome visitor to the garden - we don't often see him this close - he is very shy...



Unlike Fang...



In he came and enjoyed some goodies...

And then left...

Oh well...

Redesigned the covers for the new collections...

Went from these...



...to these...



...to, finally, these...



Tasty pasta for tea and an unpictured and further welcome visit, this time from Jane and Kitty - we will soon be off out for lunch with Kitty...

The conversation was re whether she might like Mexican food and her not really wanting to be in a position where she didn't know exactly what was in it...

We decided on Italian...

There was also some chat about the usefulness or otherwise of flies, wasps and spiders - all things Kitty does not like and has a propensity to act against - where as, I catch them and put them out the window...

Later, two "Breaking Bad" - the second with a particularly depressing ending...

Then, some very small updating of the Crispycat website - there's a tone load of work to be done on that...

Ended the day by adding an acoustic 16 song performance to the "Silversongs" collection...


Doesn't seem like a decade ago...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : A welcome visit...
