Just Wondering

Do you talk to inanimate objects?

Did you have an imaginary friend growing up?

Would you rather be the one instigating change or implementing it?

Wednesday Wonderings

Apparently, we might get rain today, so I am hoping we do not. I am planning to do quite a few visits starting with Ashford, then over to Maidstone and finally Tunbridge Wells.

Thanks to IPSOS I an now inundated with work and having to juggle these around with jobs from other companies.

Tomorrow I am in London doing a couple or more that includes UCL again and one in Wimbledon.

Just Wondering

Would you rather explore a new planet or the deepest parts of the ocean? Why?

If you could go back to school, would you choose the same subjects to study?

Would you rather be a Jack of many trades or a master of one?

Tom Cora

I completed the visits that I intended to do. The weather remained dry until late afternoon into the early evening.

On my rounds, I bought some designer socks, had a sandwich, visited a phone shop and a charity shop.

Best bargains were a couple of CDs by Tom Cora.


Thomas Henry Corra (September 14, 1953 – April 9, 1998), better known as Tom Cora, was an American cellist and composer, best known for his improvisational performances in the field of experimental jazz and rock. He recorded with John Zorn, Butch Morris, and The Ex, and was a member of Curlew, Third Person and Skeleton Crew. Tom Cora died of malignant melanoma at the age of 44 in a hospital in the south of France, where he lived with his wife, singer Catherine Jauniaux, and their son, Elia Cora.

Album: It's a Brand New Day - Tom Cora Live at the Knitting Factory (2000)

Catherine Jauniaux: vocals
Hahn Rowe: violin
Tom Cora: cello
Mark Dresser: bass
Pippin Barnett: drums

I found this Cd for a quid today.


Tom Cora - Cruelty Of Memory



From the 1991 CD - Gumption in Limbo - which I found for a quid and is worth £30 to buy online now.

He also did an album with Dutch anarcho-punks The Ex.

The Ex and Tom Cora - Stake Of Shock



From the CD "SCrabbling At The Lock"

I use to have this Cd so I hope to find it again.
