Busy at work, n'er mind. Got in early. Did a bit of secateuring along the way to improve the walk in for pedestrians. Back home for about 5pm. Not much else to report. Here's a picture of the new kit I am not sure about suspending Toms from cymbal stands but apparently it's the modern way to have Virgin Bass drums. It's a Mapex Saturn V with walnut/maple shells and all sorts of fancy dancy features to maximise resonance - I hate the heads that are on it so they'll have to be swapped out so have ordered some black Evans Hydraulics.

Busy day at t'office then back home, quick tea then took Lucy and Gracey Bill to cinema at Uttoxeter. Mooched about shops while we waited and had a coffee in the most sterile and charmless KFC I've ever been in (only been in two in my life but this one was devoid of any kind of atmosphere). Watched Inside No.9 on BBC2 - it was superb!

funny old day, up at 5am, dog walked papers fetched. Picked Lucy up after school - did nowt again - need to get back up in the attic and do a bit really. Never mind - made Missus watch No.9 - don't think she appreciated it then watched the last two episodes of True Detective Series 1 again - awesome!

Up a bit later as water switched off over night. Took pooch up town about 5:30 got papers, got into work for 7.40 still though. Took Lucy to see the new Star Wards film - £15 for two tickets - robbery - good fun film though - very loud!

Finally got some black Evan hydraulics for the new kit - put em on don't like em. Thought it might be down to the room so will see how we get on with them in rehearsal. Cancelled golf for tomorrow.

Up early dog walked, papers fetched. poking about getting things ready for rehearsal - always feel underprepared. Never mind. Didn't do a particularly brilliant job at rehearsal although used Tama Rhythmwatch metronome for getting counts in bob-on and it was great - need a long lead and something to mount it on and then we're away! Watched "Suicide Squad" on Now TV - what a load of tat that is!

Woke up at crack of dawn - 5am. Got some 2-part epoxy resin and glued down a bit of wood in the shower room that has been a pain in the arse for bloody ages. Got me tax return done. 12:30 took Lucy to football with the small dog and they only won 2-0 - right good game much improved on last year and apparently the only side to keep a clean sheet against Hilton Rovers this season which is nice but by crikey it was cold. Got back about 4pm, put the central heating on!! By 7:30 after much snoring on the setee I thought it time for bed, so took el pooch out and then off to bedski.
