UP at the crack of dawn to get my sourdough in the oven.

While it’s calling I dye a leather bottleneck pouch I’ve made for a customer, do a little more work on Kevin McDermott’s video and print postage labels for another batch of free-plus-postage orders. Then breakfast!

Next up, a Zoom session with one of my guitar students before I call Jimmy Egypt in Glasgow and arrange for my signature guitar to go in for a ‘medical’.

I get some of the ‘official’ video from the Urban Blues Fest show in Romania into the computer to edit for tonight’s Wildcats’ livestream then it’s time for another Zoom guitar session.

I spend the rest of the afternoon finishing of the merch production and editing a couple of song videos to spin into the livestream.

By the time I’m done there’s not much time for a decent walk;k…just a half hour jaunt through the forest before the Wildcats’ livestream.

There’s some jambalaya left over form last night for dinner then I spend the rest of the night punting some of the forthcoming Scottish shows and getting an email out to Scottish folks on my email list.
