Well, what a glorious day it has been. Sunny and warm - around 11C here in the garden. Perhaps the calm before the storm.

Anyway, lunch was delicious with a very tasty chicken pie with greens and roast tatties. All washed down with a Shiraz and the pudding was a way too small bread and butter pudding. All very scrumptious though.



Now for a bit of a rant.

Second-hand CDs from Amazon marketplace. Sometimes the info given is not enough unlike that on Discogs. For example, I picked up a Michael Nyman Cd on Amazon for £3 plus postage and description was Very Good condition. This usually means CD is in top condition, might have minor surface scratches and booklet in top condition. The latter was not. It had bubble indentations on the booklet due to it not being secured in jewel case properly and an indentation on the back cover. Discogs sellers would mention this and then I could decide to buy or not. I am a stickler for condition overall. I never buy anything less than VG+ and I demand it to be so. So on the feedback, I gave them a poor 3 out of five. This is why I miss going to charity shops and places like MVE in Notting Hill. Please can these shops open up again as soon as possible!!!
