Up late...

Cats cavorting (or one of them was anyway)...

A new year...

During which all of these turn 50 years old...

Those who created them are either dead or in their 70's, 80s or older...

If, in 1972, I'd had unlimited cash but was only allowed to buy LPs charting in the UK for the first time during that year, here's what I'd have bought (the first 17 were released pre 1972 but didn't chart till then)...

...and here's when I'd have bought them...

Yep, a new year but the time wasting continues...

At 10:15, this from Vienna...

...was accompanied initially by this from the EP...

...while a vocal Niko looked on...

Featuring Japanese coffee from Jane and Bob...

It seems I fell asleep half way through "The Blue Danube" and missed "The Radetsky March"...

Oh well...

The French thing continued apace as the 3rd season was uploaded to Netflix today - which was a Saturday but, rather annoyingly, felt like a Sunday...

Accordingly, with nothing else to do, out for a wee walk...

Back home to relax...

Our proposed meal out with my mum this evening was called off again, due to her not feeling too great...

I enjoyed some jazz in the back room and rearranged the CD player slightly, for easier access to the mini amp...

A tasty Indian takeaway nourished - replacing the proposed Indian meal with mum...

We both watched "Dr Who" from Anne's settee, as the cats had usurped me...

Very good indeed and featuring the Daleks...

Also "Superman & Lois Lane" was good, as was "Scot Squad" - a much better future Hogmanay staple than "Only An Excuse" ever was...

And we ended the day by binge-ing to the end of Season 3 of "The Hook Up Plan"...

Didn't take long to get through three seasons - we only discovered it a few days ago...

That's TV these days I suppose...

Goodnight Niko...

Highlight of the Day : Dr Who...
