MY pal Alastair arrives just after 9am. I’ve co-erced him into coming over to ‘model’ for some photos to use as a basis for some artwork for the new album.

We go round a few local locations, I set up some pix and Margret checks things out and presses the shutter.

Back home we take some more ‘belt and braces’ photos, have a coffee and a blether.

Once Alastair’s headed off Margaret and I go to the local village hall for a community CPR/defib-training session.

It’s an interesting and invaluable session.

I have an hour or so to catch up on some work before we go to Doune to drop off a present for Aaron. He’s five on Tuesday and we’re away for a week so wanted to see him and drop it off before we go.
