Another week...

Up and updating...


...and accidentally picture taking...


...and struggling for subject matter...


The fallback...


The beast...


Finally added covers to the boxes on the top row holding all the CD-Rs and promos in card sleeves and Wire CDs etc etc...Added 


And revealed my 100 nominations for my Top 5 LPs of 1980 (which, of course, I have already chosen)...





Breakfast was egg...


...on toast...


Some downloading, including the "Super Delxe" version of The Beatles' "Let It Be"...

Oofft! At least 2/3rds of this LP indicate even worse quality control than the White Album! "Let It Be"/"Across the Universe"/"The Long and Winding Road"/"Get Back" might have made "Abbey Road" a good double LP...

But it was patent barrel scraping in 1970, never mind a multi disc set now...

Anyway...

Then, to WFH...

A discussion during the day re this LP and whether it should be classed a compilation...

One side of Frippertronics...


One side of Discotronics...


But it's an LP...

Lunch with two x "Community"...

In the afternoon, the new cafetiere arrived and it was good...



Early evening, with WFH done, Anne was off out to pilates with Lynn...

I was in charge of putting the oven on...

I managed to catch my leg on the door, sustaining an annoying leg wound...

But I'll live...

Tasty fish pie with broccoli was the result of my switching on and Anne heating up...

"University Challenge" - the winners scored 175, the losers (UCL) 170 and us? 165...

Acceptable...

"Taskmaster" was good - I always think it's not going to be when it comes up as a suggestion for something to watch...

One last "Community" before bed, with Brian Eno in the cans...

Back into the swing. kind of...

Highlight of the Day : New coffee pot...
