An early rise as always...


..and getting this up to date, while listening to the third of yesterday's CD choices...


...under good skies...

Front...


Back...


Then, the random number generator chose this section...


...a box from Dylan to The Editors...


...from which..


I chose these three - the debut solo album from Quebec singer/songwriter Félix Dyotte; a record by German noise rock duo Dÿse, co-incidentally playing Kassel tonight (we will visit in July); and a two track guitar & drums live drone album by Washington State's Earth...


...which soundtracked WFH...

"Rita" at lunchtime and we finished off series 2...

Some possible new additions to Capital Models' covers repertoire have been suggested by Paul...

Unlike my plethora of Velvets, Bowie, Roxy and T Rex, he has gone for Pink Floyd and Rush...


Here, "The Spirit of Radio" with an easier to follow song sheet...


We'll see...

Luna continued to entertain a every opportunity...


Plaice and salad for tea before I drove over to Eskbank to visit my mum...



...who, eventually, managed a smile for the camera...


Good chat with "Diane", one of the assessors, as regards what's happening and hopes for mum to get back home - they need to treat her as if she is in her house and observe everything she needs in addition to what she would have at home - the hope being that those additional needs will reduce as she regains her limited mobility and gets back to what is, for her, "normal"...

A protracted drive home, thanks to various road works, took over 40 minutes - I arrived just in time for "Brooklyn Nine Nine"...

We "watched" on the internet as The Rangers went ahead in Seville in the Europa League final.  Eintracht Frankfurt equalised just 12 minutes later. The stalemate ended in penalties with just one being missed...

Frankfurt are the champions...

Some late on listening, including a podcast from 8 weeks ago - much of the music forgotten since then, and off to bed around midnight with Klaus Schulze (not literally)...

Bought this 2CD reissue at the High Voltage festival in London back in 2010 I think (might have been the 2011 edition)...


...and here's the original Sci-fi cover...


Lights out...
