WE SLEEP through the alarm and wake up (extremely!) late. Too embarrassing to say the time!

After the resulting brunch I finish off one of the test Christmas baubles and make some design decisions. I’d quite like to have some on show at the Christmas lights switch-on makers’ market.

I’m waiting on a wee splitter box to allow me to power the wee Valeton GP-P5 pedal and a wireless receiver from a USB power bank….I’ll design and 3D print a wee mini pedal board and the lot will hopefully serve as a backup in case the Quad Cortex goes down…or just as knockabout system.

Anyway, it was meant to come today but seems it’s still at the Evri hub. No fucking surprise there!

It’s a horrible wet, dreich day so I decide to stay put in the office and do some final finishing work on the penguin paperweight I cast a while back. It’s a little rough still but I have to make the best of it and if there’s a few wee flaws so be it.

I also need some brass stuff for the makers’ market…most of it is custom, though, so I try and work up designs for a brass coin and smaller pin featuring our local church – it’s been closed and there’s a community buyout project underway, so some folks might be attracted to it 😉
