Four days in already...

Up around 7:30...

A dreich day...

...but, inside it was nice...

To ripping and further listening to yesterday's purchases, plus updating the monthly collages for 2022 and my entry for Hogmanay...

Here they are...

Love Music x 2, BHF x 3, Missing x 9, Mono  x 4...

A man came to service the burglar alarm - only 6 months late - he was nice though but we will still apply for some money back re lack of service...

At lunchtime, watching new pirate thing "Our Flag Means Death"...

Not bad...

Tonight we were off out to celebrate grand nephew Kerr's 18th - so we had to pick our picks from the menu re pre-ordering...

Meanwhile, the postie brought this - bought on E-Bay from old music shop chum Bert Muirhead - should be good...

Lovely home made potato, carrot and leek soup and a sandwich for lunch...

...was followed by the second half of  "The Ghost of Canterville" for 2 hours and then finishing off the ripping...

Did some tagging re new expanded versions recently downloaded of the first five Uriah Heep LPs...

And then it was time to get over to Senior's venue choice, The Old Colliery, for a slap up birthday tea, with Sheila and Senior...

...nephews Andy (Kerr's dad) and Ali and Kerr's other granny...

(Mr CBQ's main slap up feed)...

Erm...

Also in attendance, Kerr's mum Lisa, an unpictured me and an unpictured Anne and, of course, the birthday boy himself...

Yes, there was cake and, yes, it was good...

As we bade farewell to everyone, Anne and I gave Andy and Kerr a lift into Shandwicks on Charlotte Square where further good times with the young man's chums were on the agenda...

We picked neighbour Gayle up on the drive up the hill and enjoyed a chat with her and partner Kevin at the back gate re the demise of Rory Custard - poor wee man...

Back inside, some telly and music listening and then bed...

2023 is rushing along!

Highlight of the Day : Birthday tea...

Today's new music:-
