Good gig yesterday.
Tina Charles (remember her: 'I love to love, but my baby just wants to dance', but only English, Commonwealth, and European folk will know the tune) got up to sing a number with the band as she was a guest at the party. We played 'Nutbush City Limits' and she sang brilliantly....erk. Fantastic top-end. A blast, m'dears, a total blast. Then the band busked its way through 'I love to love', which was pretty damn amusing actually.
Apparently she has just finished a new album.
38 million sales of 'I love to love'. Pretty good pension, I reckon. Gods, I wish I'd got my act together a bit earlier in life.

Session in TPA today for a songwriter called Mark Bethune, who in his other life is a movie-maker. 4 songs in 4 hours.

Do good things. Help your fellow man. Stand up and be counted.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I'll let the flat, but the Mother will have a veto on the folk renting it. We'll tie up the rental contract properly and it'll give me a regular income for the first time in years. Bliss. I shall be no longer poor.

Hols this year. Invite to Fra and Cressy's villa in Portugal (a week in August) and then another looking at the architecture of Palladio, which means Northern Italy (my choice). Yay! However, I don't normally go abroad becuase of 'green' issues and general laziness. Would love to sorjourn in Northern France for a bit, but probably not this year.
Glad the band are gigging and recording.
Power to the Ankh elbow.
