A great day for working

An email tonight from Catriona in Guernsey saying that the Arts Commission are meeting in Guernsey on Monday and will discuss my anthology idea. So if you read this and happen to remember, please beam positive vibes towards the Channel Islands for me.

Otherwise I worked till 10pm on Skelton Yawngrave, pausing only to go the gym (slightly more energetic than last week on the hulk legs machine) eat, snooze for half an hour, go food shopping, play with Calliope, and make some work calls. A perfect working day in fact.

Spoke to Sophie who told me Andros had a minor stroke the other week, but seems to be okay now and her mother is confined to bed with a crumbled vertebra. The children are good, and we are all planning to get together soon. Sophie managing to sound buoyant, however, and says a recent Buddhist retreat has helped.

Chat to Lorraine planning which gigs we are going to see this week on The Great Escape. This is a festival of lesser known bands in venues in Brighton. You buy one ticket and have to wear a wristband for three days and see as many bands as you can in that time. Some splendid band names such as : Last Mango in Paris, An Experiment On A Bird In The Air Pump, and We Were Promised Jetpacks.
