5th January – A Quiet Moment
Yay a HE. Felt good, job was a good ‘un and a phone sale out of it too which I’ve not coded. Brief dusting of snow, the weather is best described as brass monkey’s. Driving continues to be OK, getting a wee bit more confident. Home via Aldi to pick up bread products.
Am back on the sertraline full time right now, struggling a bit mentally right now. Feel a bit more level as a result.
Other than that it’s a quiz night on TV. Just chill with herself.
Review #5 – The Mike Bell Cartel – The Cartel and I
Fuzzy psych, with organ accents. Bits remind me of 13th Floor Elevators and any number of Texas Punk bands of the 60’s. or maybe The Electric Prunes are a better comparison. Think it’s the vocals that are vaguely Ericksonesque. Some nice Byrdsy 12 string too. Well worth a listen and fab to drive to.

Simple – bee and honeysuckle.
Something in my junk drawer… well the cable ties will come in useful. Last day in for a couple of days and it’s another stinker.
Trip to the ‘pool today. Start of with a Snack, sausage sarnie. Then on to The Walker Art Gallery. Bit of nice Paul Nash, bit of Johnny Vegas. Thoroughly enjoyed it. They’re advertising a Holly Johnson exhibition down at The Museum of Liverpool Life.
A bit of a lazy start to the day, showered and then away to Sainsbury’s whereupon I find glimmer 5. Home for lunch and then off shopping again. Coffee and a wee pint in the Tom & Gerry. Am cooking the 
3rd shift of lates, uninspiring am knackered. Nipped to Lidl with a list and cook the most uninspiring meal. C not happy at the dishes in the sink, in my defence nothing to do with me, S and R dishes.
3rd late of the week. Shattered.


Been a bit of a bizarre day tbh. Up and out early, off to Wigan to capture some images. Still playing catch up with this place. New Long Ryder’s album on the way in. Vaguely thought a coffee might be welcome but cancelled out on the idea, got into work to no chair, Liam next to me had used it, grabbed it back, no headphones, he’d had those too I later dicovered. Have been allocated a locker which is useful because I’ll stash my stuff when we go away to keep thieving mitts off!
