MARGARET has a meeting at 8.30am and sleeps in…to be woken at 8.45am asking if she’s coming! The annoying thing is that I’ve been up since 6.30am and would have them her long ago – but for some reason I thought her meeting was 10.30am.
Luckily it’s a local meeting so after a mad panic she’s off…and I get some stuff done before my guitar student arrives.
Betty’s coming for dinner later and I have a slab of pork belly ready for the smoker. The electric smoker’s throwing up an error code so I rush around getting the kamado set up with wood and charcoal. No sooner do I get it all going and the pork belly on than the electric smoker decides it’s human work. Ah well.
I set the grill cleaner cover to print on the 3D printer then head to it studio for some prep for Sunday's radio show…which is gonna have to be pre-recorded before we head to South Wales on Saturday.
The rain’s hammering down outside and I take a break from choosing tracks to rehearse some of the stuff I might play at the XS Festival on Sunday evening.
