…is that obviously the camouflage didn’t work. Why it was there is of course a different question. It involved a birthday surprise party for Frances, some very thick long-stemmed sunflowers, a short vase and a carving knife. Luckily the carving knife wasn’t that sharp as I feel my bass playing days may have been over. The party was a big success though and I was decidedly more careful when carving the ribs later.
Personally I thought the Ferguson show was quite successful, a little rough at the start as I got used to the sound change from no audience (during sound check) to audience, but from about halfway through the first verse I thought it was a good performance. For those who asked, that was indeed Wendy Page providing backing vocals, and it was she who sang on the acoustic version of "Seven of Sundays" on the album. The sound mix could have certainly been improved upon, but you get what you get on TV (and you try not to get upset).
F everybody’s I – I’m off on holiday in a few days, so don’t be surprised if I disappear for a couple of weeks. This newfangled internet thing has not caught on so much in deepest darkest Wales or rural Tuscany but I’ll do my best, and please do chat here amongst yourselves in the meantime (as if I could stop you). I leave on Thursday and return on August 18th with brief stops in London, Bath, Wales and Tuscany as per usual. I’ll be taking a few snaps for you to enjoy upon my return.
The Kindle is going to get it’s first major workout and it’s fantastic not to have to be packing a whole bunch of books.
I’m still working on the HP Delxue Set set which I hope will be done and ready for release in the fall, along with some new products (posters, signed photos, and by popular demand, a 2009 calendar). And be on the lookout for the launch of the long-delayed Fans section of this site, which may even happen while I’m away. I know you’ll find it worth the wait.
I have three specific thoughts from today to share (a little abstract I know):
1) Best headline of the week: Step Brothers: Better Than Citizen Kane? You Bet Your Ball Sack!
2) I love the color of my kid’s laundry.
3) Whilst watching the Sunday morning news shows – see links below – I was wondering how anyone could vote for John McCain (just my opinion of course).
I feel a further blog about "family values" coming on.
Happy (summer) holidays,
Papa S.
