NO FRUIT at breakfast as I’m to minimise fibre intake in the run uo to Friday’s ass-cam adventure.

In the office I set about cutting down the big sheets of wood and acrylic that arrived yesterday into sections that’ll fit in the laser cutter. A bit time-consuming but quite therapeutic scoring and snapping to size.

Will had asked me a week or two ago if I could design/make stands for his paperweights…firstly for him to use at exhibitions and stuff and also perhaps to include with purchases. After sketching out some ideas and trying to make something as simple as possible I come up with a prototype.

Will likes it so I refine it a little and add his web address for prototype number two (pictured above). I quite like the way it’s turned out.

I hit the studio with the intention of editing some video but end up lifting up the guitar and jamming around for an hour until it’s past lunchtime.

I finally start some video editing after my delayed lunch then go back to the house to prepare some flank steak for sous vide – Betty’s coming for dinner tonight and I’m doping steak I. pepper sauce.

It’s not very nice outside so I try and make up for the lack of a walk by doing a session on the cross trainer. Legs like jelly afterwards!

Margaret comes home with shopping and after putting everything away I nip back to the studio until Betty arrives.
