OK - I am two weeks behind - maybe it'll be easier to go backwards with the catch up...

So, yesterday, awake at 5:10 but not up - instead, back to bed with the good cans on, listening to the new CBQ LP, out on Friday...


Up...

The machines waited...


...along with new items on the shelf from yesterday's bag of stuff from Anne's office...



Instead of doing this diary, or catching up on much else, I trawled through September releases and ended up downloading loadsa new music...

Breakfast...

WFH - and outside, good skies...


Lunch, accompanied by, as is the way these days, two episodes of "Community"...


More WFH...

Once done, some chat with the boys from the band re details of our proposed live outing , kind of penciled in for end November...

A tasty chili for tea - while Anne had been cooking this, I'd been listening back to Sunday's sessions - mostly, very good...

As was, of course, the chili...


On telly, a new thing from Netflix, "Norsemen" - we watched the first three episodes - it's good but not quite as funny as the trailer - but there are only 6 episodes a season and 3 seasons so not too much of a commitment...

Then "Holby City" and Jenny finally arrested - then the second of the 2 parter of "Silent Witness" - curse you John Harle and your very, very annoying theme music - which we always have to mute...

Post that, did the dishes, then, upstairs to begin the upload of Friday's LP - which involved creating the mixes for the bonus tracks (also uploaded)...

To bed with just the notes to write - though, on a quick listen to one of the stripped down mixes, possibly too much of what's going on is exposed...

Hmmm...

Lights out...

Highlight of the Day : Prepping the album...
