Tuesday and I arose with nothing planned...



But I was soon writing this up and listening to new music and Whatsapping with Edward Spark and, then, breakfasting...


Just after 10, I realised I'd done nothing, and so, I strapped on the guitar, fired up the machines and rehearsed the two 30 minute sets for the upcoming gigs...


Between sets, a long call with Prog Rock Willie - and swapping of stuff via DropBox, resulting in rather a lot of Pain of Salvation entering the collection...

At 12:30, took Anne to Dalry for her long leisurely lunch at La Casa with Debbie and Teresa, with accidental Mobile Data switch off meaning uncontactable...

I returned home and cooked lunch re-doing some of yesterday's shenanigans...


Again, tasty...


...and enjoyed with two episodes of "Mr & Mrs Smith"...

Then, back out and over to Stockbridge, parking on the roof of Waitrose...




Purchases made in, firstly, Shelter, then, Oxfam...



In Shelter, another, my third, box of Haydn quartets on vinyl...


 ...and two piano CDs, were acquired...


 ...for a total of £9...


...while a £1 disc of quartets by the Lindsays...


 ...and, for £12.50 (reduced from £45), a 40CD box of Beethoven, were acquired at Oxfam...


Yowsah!

The first disc of the Beethoven box and then the first 2 records from the Haydn box were enjoyed...


On Anne's return, including a pick up from the zoo, "Leverage: Redemption" was commenced and it is going to be good...

Later on, more music listening...


...before retiring just before 12...


...with Efterklang in the cans (re said cans, a second, free, box of foam buds arrived this afternoon)...

A good day out of nothing...

Highlight of the Day : Classical finds...
