AFTER a bit of a long lie and late breakfast I go out to the office and start the finishing work on the audio point info panel I've been busy with for the past few weeks.

There's some clear acrylic sheets to be cut to size and paperweight stands to be made for Manson Glass plus a leather bracelet and airtrag holder to be finished.

Once I've caught up with all that I go to the studio and spend some time doing all the final prep for tonight's Dave Arcari's Deep Blues show on rock.scot. Not only do I have to decide what I'm gonna play and make sure I've got it on the station's playout system, there's a lot of sifting through new music submitted for consideration for airplay. A fair amount of work goes into what is 'just' a two-hour show once a week!

Before the show I have time to start pulling together the last couple ion bits of video footage from the Cottiers show the week before last. There's two songs'-worth I'm hoping to edit up to spin into tomorrow night's (Monday) Wildcats' livestream on Facebook.

After the radio show I upload the entire gig to my Mixcloud and sort out the playlist ready for posting round my socials and the Dave Arcaris' Deep Blues Facebook page in the morning.
