A chilly April day.
Pretty chilly northern wind again today and we awoke to no hydro too. I ventured into Town today - highly unusual at the weekend - but it is Record Store Day. I went in with Zibby and I ran my hands over Liberace and sundry others. I had psyched myself up to buy an LP but there was nothing there to tickle my fancy (although Zibby bought two LPs and 3 CDs). I met David Bellamy there and noticed Gringo purchasing. I nearly got my wallet out for a Mrs Mills green vinyl Japanese rarity (remixed by Larry Parnes’ uncle) but I was faint hearted. So I returned home and listened to some Herbie Hancock from 1965 - in mono. I don’t think the skiffle boom will ever comeback.
So we then hung around the library reading papers and sniffing books* and met Bunty who wanted an update on the local dance scene. I bought a tin opener as instructed by CMC. Tonight we are being entertained by friends in Holm.
*Another strange but true was that I was ‘invited’ to leave Waterstone’s first branch in Union Street, Aberdeen for sniffing books once. (And only the once). For me it was never about literary content.
That is all I have to say.
