A ZOOM guitar student first thing then I take advantage of a gap in the rainfall to go for a walk up the lochside.

First job when I get back is to see if I can sort the chop saw which gave up the ghost the other day. I check the power breaker on the outside socket.it;s OK. Next, the fuse in the plug and…bingo! That’s it . Fixed.

I make a couple of prototype castings then a custom magnetic leather bookmark for West Highland Way Gifts then send some time in the studio working on ideas for a new song…tentatively titled Younger Days.

Somehow I’d forgotten to put a guitar lesson in the diary, but Violet’s mum messages me to say her step dad will be bring her for today’s lesson. Phew! The lesson goes well.

Back in the studio I do some prep for this evening’s livestream into my Wildcats’ Facebook group.

When I go back to the house Maggi’s in chatting with Margaret about putting together our local place plan. I join them and chat for a while…it’s after 11pm when we have dinner!
