Shocking news - City manage to win! A 3-1 victory at Bournmouth keeps us in the top 6 and may just be the spur that the team need in the quest for promotion. Huge game for us next weekend, when we are at home to top of the league Reading.
Had a long sleep-in this morning following a late night on Friday. I went out straight from work , to wish good luck to a couple of work colleagues that were leaving the company. Then I met up with Orynthia at The Croft for the latest Four Corners night out. Loads of friends were out and we had a fine dance (well, we danced a lot, i guess other people should judge the actual quality of the performance!)
Today we (along we lots of other people) helped Heather and Spider shift some stuff into their splendid new house. Managed to catch up with Babs who has just returned from a great trip to the States. Babs and Mark went to Vegas before heading down to Austin, Texas for the South By Southwest music festival. It sound's as though Austin is really good place to visit. Maybe one day, we will manage to get to the states and move beyond New York.
Picked up a few second hand LP's in the afternoon. A great Isley Brothers one from 1967, a strange LP of Jewish comedy sketches called "You don't have to be Jewish.." recorded in New York in 1964, and a fairly generic blues album by a guy who's name I have forgotten already. Set us back the grand total of £4 for the lot, so I can't complain. Earlier in the week I also picked up the soundtrack to the glorious Mulholland Dr. and a CD of amazing early work from Steve Reich. Not easy to listen to, the sort of thing that I find really compelling but sends Orynthia rushing out of the room as fast as she can make it.
Off for a Dim Sum lunch with the family members that went to the Prince Buster gig at 12;30 tomorrow, so I guess I should head off to bed now. Then tomorrow evening John Stapleton has invited us down to little session that he is doing at il Bordelo (a fairly new club on a boat. So it's a mixture of food and music tomorrow - what could be better?
