Up early and doing something or other...

Ah yes, listening to Capital Models by way of rehearsing for today's rehearsal...

At 9:30 out and over to pick up Paul for the drive to Roslin for the 10:30 start...

A two hour session during which we learned three brand new to everyone songs and one new to 3 of us and on which Keith last played drums ten years ago...

Then, eight songs which are being added back into the set for our gig on 27 July...

Break time...

...with coffee and biscuits...

...because we are rock'n'roll...

A further hour long set took the song total up to 17 plus one doubler re one of the new ones - 19 if we include the opening soundcheck jam...

At 2:30, this the scene outside Johnny W's after a hard 4 hour shift...

Then, to my mum's and determining what required to be bought - then to Sainsbury's to buy it...

Here, the old lady in a blurry pic though her front window around 4:30 - just as the carers arrived to give her a, what was, no doubt, for her, a very annoyingly early tea...

Back home around 2 hours later, our tea was a superb Spaghetti Bolognese from Annie...

Quite possibly my absolute favourite...

No football but Emma Raducanu being knocked out of Wimbledon was watched...

We have not yet found a new thing to replace "Monk" in our days...

But, no doubt soon...

Anyway, weekend over again...

Highlight of the Day : Spaghetti just trumps rehearsing...

On the programme each week, you'll hear 25 Tracks, kicking off with David's LP of the Week, followed by his six other LPs of the day, three or so CBQ, or CBQ related, tracks, a single of the week (if there is one), a couple more singles (if there are any) and a further eclectic mix of other things new into the collection... It's eclectic!
