Not doing much of anything. Trying not to think too much about the fact that Sunday would have been my wife's 70th birthday, and today would have been our 31st wedding anniversary.

Went to the near by garden centre which is now open with social distancing and sat out in the sun in the garden. Finished reading KK Downing's autobiography which is one for Priest fans only. Now reading Robert Schoch's Forgotten Civilisation. Have been facinated by the prospect of an ice age civilisation wiped out by a cataclysm for a long time. Now the evedence seems overwhelming.

Tidied my garage so I can fit an extra fridge in there. Yes, it's a dedicated beer fridge for the crispest, cleanest lager experience :guiness;

I had to change a wall socket and remove an old burglar alarm to fit the bugger in. There's nowt worth nicking in my garage apart from two boxes of San Miguel.

Got up very early to catch the spring tide I require to fish a local venue. Caught nowt, but nice to be out and safe in these sad times. Set up some rigs this afternoon. Feeling tired after getting up over four hours before I normarly do. A couple of beers tonight and a lay in tomorrow.

What I am currently doing is being annoyed with someone I don't know, whose name I have never heard - nor will I ever hear it - who I have never met, and never will meet, but who is the b*stard who obviously pressed his "Buy Now" button on eBay milliseconds before I bloody well did, thereby depriving me of a guitar I didn't need but wanted, and that's what counts.
