Up and listening again to the new GLAM! and then the Leith Dockers tapes...


...the latter of which, post breakfast...


...soundtracked the trip over to Paul's to pick him up and then out to Roslin for our final rehearsal pre the wedding on 4th May...


We made our way through the four sets but only playing any songs which any one or more of us reckoned we needed to tighten up or work on...


...which amounted to 25 of the 45...

As a reward for this work, there was cake at the break...


Met up with Anne later at Jane and Bob's -  they were watching the Hearts semi final against Scotland's newest club, said club doing for the JT's 2-0...

Oh well, by way of consolation, here are fave niece Kitty's platform boots...


...and Rafa the Dog...


Tesco/Lidl for tea on the way home, haggis and mash for me, Macaroni Cheese for Anne...

In today's English semi-final, Coventry City came back from 3-0 down at 70 mins against Manchester United at Wembley to make it 3-3 at 90+6 and forced extra time...

They scored a fourth in the dying seconds of said Extra Time only to have it chalked off by VAR for a millimeter measurement offside - and then Man U had their first penalty saved but Coventry subsequently also had one saved and then ballooned one over the bar...

Such is football...

A very good "Astrid", then, to the machines, where I noted, reliability of the laptop is back up again over the last week or so, which is good...



Edited the sessions from today - 3 hours of playing whittled down to 90 minutes of music...

Some discoveries nabbed for the library and then a "Monk" and lights out...


Another good day...

Highlight of the Day : Rehearsing
