jazzy_daveNo more scatalogical references for the time being. Having bemoaned the fact about the lack of work recently,and shitty companies (you said no scatalogical remarks!!),suddenly work has picked up again,fistly all week mostly from Sutton Research on cat food and a day down the Marina at David Lloyds.The the following week some on the train jobs from Oxford Research,all airport runs.The last day of this lot is July 22nd,and its one day on gatwick Express,one day on heathrow express,one day on Stanstead express and a new one,heathrow connect going from Liverpool Street station. Interesting to see what route that takes.
Finally received my cheque from Consumer Bubble (hoorah!!) but without no apologies. Still waiting for the one from IFC though,and it looks like Carmel who is meant to be responsible for such matters,will get the sack for not doing her job properly, and arriving late and going off early,as there has been mounting complaints about her to the director. All i can say it is about time.
On Saturday i did an exit survey in deepest Kemp Town in St.Georges Road. it was a camelot lottery exit survey - just one page - no more than 2 mins long. Ruth came down to visit for the usual 6 months accompianment. She is so much more laid back and fiendly than the awful strictly-by-the-book Annette Tibble.She only stayed for an hour in which half of that we had long cool drinks at a nearby bar.God bles her.
Bloody hot day though.However,completed the full quota of 27 without a problem.
I succumbed to buying a new CD as it was the chaepest in town from Essential Records.Thge latest by Sonic Youth "Rather Ripped". Only £8! Most other places were selling it for more than ten pounds. Sonic Youth are still going on strong and making excellent music,and still creating fascinating sonic immersions into avant-garde strategies.
Other bargains purchased are from Borderline,the reissued "Nuggets" 27 tracks of sonic garage pysch-rock from the sixties originally released on Lp in 1972,from Oxfam ,Comus "Song to Comus", a double CD of stuff from two albums by these early seventies acid-folkies,and a Savoy CD for £2 at the Saturday North laines market of wild and rare big swing bands.
I have put by a double Cd of two reissued albums by another folkie,Sheila McDonald at Across The Tracks for a possible exchange.
