Up late today...





Writing this...

Breakfast...

Then, Eurasian Bullfinches in the neighbour's garden...






At 10, along to Anne's mum's to take her out for coffee and cake...



Much enjoyed...


A small pink rabbit purchased for BB...


Took Mary home then Anne home - a quick soup, then, out to Loanhead and packed the car for the auction house in Rosewell with sister Sheila...

This, this was all they adjudged to be worthwhile to submit...




...and this, this was deemed junk, basically...


Refreshments in the nearby community centre and who should walk in but Sheila's old school chum Ann Duncan - she lives in John O'Groats but is down for a few days sorting stuff re her own mum's demise...

Stories and pictures were exchanged...


Junk taken back to mum's house...


...and then, home...

Another "Cross" enjoyed...

On a Tuesday in November...


This evening, I finally put up what I've been thinking for ages about my so-called "followers on Mixcloud"...

A new podcast, entitled "A Message to 1,580 of my 1,600 Followers on Mixcloud"...

Hi! Cloudland Blue Quartet here. Mixcloud keeps telling me I have 1,600 "followers" on their platform. 

Week in, week out, I produce a show of around 2 hours of the very best in new music, across a wide range of genres.  Truly, it's an eclectic selection and, indeed, a labour of love.

Well, it must be because, every week, only around 10 or 20 hardy souls drop by to take a listen.

But how can that be when I have 1,600 "followers"?  It's a mystery.  Why are those people following me? 

So, if you are one of the 1,580 who actually NEVER listens to ANYTHING I do on here, I'd like to ask you to do me a great big favour.  Please, for the love of God, just unfollow me now.  Because who in their right mind wants "followers" who are not interested in what they do?

And now I'm looking forward to my follower numbers plummeting and I don't mind one little bit.

And to those lovely people amongst you who do listen, thanks for taking the time to do so.  It's you who make this all worthwhile!"
