Midweek...



Up at 5:30 and listening back to what I thought was the finalised mix and master of "The Dark Room" on Bandcamp, I realised there was some element of distortion on two of the four tracks...

So, spent the first three hours of the day remixing the tracks, plus their 7", Instrumental and 7" instrumental counterparts, mastering them all again and reuploading....  

Rocky popped by for precisely two minutes to provide some support...








Post breakfast, Fang also popped by...







On his exit after around 20 minutes, he slashed Anne's leg...

It's just what he does and we have no idea why...

"Leverage" and "Loudermilk" continued to entertain...

A playlist of all the original versions of our wedding setlist was put together, from the original LPs rather than comps, nine of which had to be acquired to do so - all in order to create a poster for the gig...


A quick and early tea...


...of tasty sausages and some chips, resulted in the front tooth repair I got almost 12 years ago being reversed...


...which is extremely annoying and somewhat embarrassing...

I have appointments lined up for later this month...

To the fives for the first time in 17 weeks...


It went much better than I ever imagined...

I was on the winning side - only my 4th game of "the season" but the 3 points lifted me at last off the bottom of the table...

Have put my name down for next week and will struggle through the leg pain for the next few days...

This evening, I reckoned Dio was probably the best heavy metal band ever...


...while Anne watched Hearts draw 1-1 with arch rivals Hibernian at Tynecastle on a rainswept night - the night of the Shankland Penalty Pie Incident...

Highlight of the Day : Cat visits...
