Morning Thursday morning…

The end of June...

Half way through the year...

There will be a certain element of freedom for both the Exec Producer and Mr Quartet from today onwards…

We have retired...

Scary biscuits!!

And so, I am finally a musician and artist...

Kind of...

Just as well we have saved up a load of cash on which we can (hopefully) live till we die...

Despite the momentousness of the day, up as usual...


The chilies do not seem to be growing...


Views...



Daily Section No 75 of 432...


Section 417, classical boxes. Jordi Savall to Sibelius...


Just 13 titles but 67 discs...


Choices were said Savall set; a box of Shakespeare related works, the first to arrive at the door during lockdown; and the Emersons’ box of Shostakovich’s string quartets…



I made my way to the office but not for the last time...





A nice lunch with chums Sarah and Janine, funded by David from a large corporation...



Printed off the new tickets home re our upcoming trip to Germany - our flight back was cancelled today and so we need to stay for an extra two days...


This evening, much frantic re-organisation went on, including the cancellation of booked accommodation and the booking of other accommodation...

Meanwhile, out tomorrow on Bandcamp....

The 6th in the Cloudland Blue Quartet "classical" series and 1st for a year...

After “Satie", "Cage", "Beethoven", "Schoenberg Webern Berg" & "Haydn", comes "Wagner"...

Free to stream/name your price to download (with extra mixes)...




There will be a retirement celebration tomorrow...

For now, lights out...

Highlight of the Day : We retired...
