New albums and a walk up Pendle

 Yeah, got the new Roedelius Selbstportrait and it's a real return to form. Lots of old instruments - shows to me that he's a splendid organist. I think I maybe prefer to hear him play the organ rather than piano. Also got Schulze's Trancefer - many years too late. It's another great one too, helped by real drums and cello. 

In the week we went up Pendle. I shall paste in a few photos here for completeness.

I recorded something coolish - but did the good version to Instagram and the iPad mic. Will try and recreate at some point. Quite feasible with that Digitone/Blackbox setup I now have. 






 Anyway, it's Sunday and I'm about to feed Jasper. Pat's gone to do the horse but she's pretty down at the moment. The whole Covid thing seems to be eating away at her, probably compounded by lack of access to little William, Caspian's condition and whatever else. She was throwing up over night again, which is worrying. We had fish & chips so nothing spicy or odd. Had a nice walk but marred by her cystitis. Another things that hits her when she's stressed. Must think of ways to cheer her up. 

Saw mum today, played Scrabble which seems to have been a good idea. It's her face op Wednesday morning early so will be there for that. Mum like me in that she doesn't let things really get to her. Probably others see that as unfeeling or impenetrable. 

Have got the review going nicely now, struggled for a bit to put the notes into a coherent order but happy with it now. Just a bit of time required to knit it all together. May get it later if Pat goes to bed early. 

Right, stuff to do.
