It's J and my 47th wedding anniversary today.
Here's a photo I took in 1986 of her with our GSD Titus who was around 1 at the time.

“England: we're going to have to opt out of that one.”
This has aged magnificently.
It speaks to astounding talent that they could make 17th-century geopolitics hilarious to a 21st-century audience.

More memories refreshed. My Dad and Mum's parents Christmas 1979 and 1982. And my Mum and Dad. Lovely smiling faces xx
My poppy pin. Made in 2017 to honour those who fell at Passchendaele in 1917, like my Great Uncle. Made from the brass from a British shell fuse found on the battlefield and the colour infills contain dirt from the battlefield.
It came in this box with a whistle from the same company that made them in WW1. Imagine what emotions that would evoke in soldiers back in the day.
We're the local Sparrow feeders, well they are an endangered species. Just a few that visited today. We also get Blue Tits, Great Tits, Starlings, Blackbirds, Robins and Wood Pigeons.
This is what I like to remember, smiling faces. I'm the little one not smiling, around 1957. My Mum's Mum, Dad, Mum and Mum's Dad. All passed on now. Lovely people. Happy memories.
A sad day. Yesterday evening my Mum, Edith, passed away at home after struggling with dementia for over 2.5 years. She lived for 94 years and 7 months. Not a nice thing to witness as she didn't recognise people for over a year and was immobile most of that time.
We've had our eldest Daughter and her dog Luna down since Wednesday. Yesterday evening we went to The Haymarket in Basingstoke to see Sh!t-Faced Shakespear's Romeo and Juliet. The most non-PC adult humour show I've seen in years. At least one of the cast is 'inebriated'. Absolutely brilliant. 🤣😂

Lots of small birds on our feeders. Sparrows, Great Tits and this Blue Tit right now. Robins, Wrens and Blackbirds on the grass.
Just uploaded the second track from my (in progress) 10th album. Two pieces in 10 days! I let my Strat sing at the end of this one.

Two very handy and comprehensive guitar case books from the early 1990s. I wish these were around when I picked up the guitar in 1968. Instead it was Bert Weedon's "Play in a Day".
First track off of my latest "From the Man Cave 8" album, "Comparison is the thief of joy". My 10th album so far.
An instrumental post-rock piece...
