AN EARLY start. First up is an online session with one of guitar students, immediately followed by an in-person lesson in the house.

I have an hour or two to micromesh polish the spurtle pins before I leave for a session with the kids in Balloch.

It’s a really nice day so I head out for a paddle when I get home. I shoot some video for my socials then head for home.

After making some pasta dough I start attaching the pins to the back of the spurtles which gives the dough a good hour or so to rest.

As a result it;s a late dinner then we binge watch the four episodes – ie: all of – of Adolescence.
