caddymanOh look. The weekend's gone again. Oh Joy.
Still, on the whole it has been a good weekend if a little expensive. I nipped into the West End yesterday afternoon and ended up poorer by the cost of a couple of ink cartridges amongst other things. I picked up a number of CDs - Everyone is Everybody Else: Barclay James Harvest's 1974 release and the first after leaving the Harvest label. Fiddling Meanly a live CD by Maesosto, a band put together by Woolly Woolstenholme, erstwhile keyboardist with BJH and currently doing the same with the splinter group, John Lees' Barclay James Harvest. Buried Treasure - The Sailor Anthology made it home as it is the only compilation CD of that band's work that includes my personal favourite, Blue Desert from their first, eponymous album.
Finally, for a mere £8 I found a 3CD set of original Sun Recordings, so I have a large sample of 50s rockabilly and southern blues to listen to, recorded just at the time it was evolving into rock'n'roll. Marvellous.
Nice to see![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
evilchalkie who crashed in the spare room over night. He was back from whatever meet-up he attended much earlier than expected, so we had the opportunity for a good natter for the first time in far too long.
Today has been relatively quiet, though we took the opportunity to wander into North Finchley for a couple of items, back for lunch in the pub while Arsenal were showing signs of forgetting what football is about on telly. Later in the afternoon we installed some cosy Christmas lights and then around 9pm after lolling around listening to music,ellefurtle and I sloped out for a bottle of wine and a pizza at ASK.
Now it's time to go to bed. It all starts again from here. Boooo.
