Amsterdam, by Steve Lawson
6 track album
it's not really had much of a fanfare, as I've literally no idea how 'media' works these days, but my latest album Amsterdam feels like a bit of a high water mark in my recent output. Give it a listen if that sounds appealing :)

It's a shame she's stopped using the old Westone Thunder basses, but they still sound great.
My current favourite bit of bass is the fretless on this (the whole album has the bass nicely mixed).

I've only been charged by a cat once, and it went straight for my face.
Luckily it was a kitten so easily fended off, but still made me jump!

My favourite painting story was a couple of friends painting a bedroom, they started with 5l of paint and 24 cans of beer.
By the time they got to the bottom of the paint and the beer they'd covered one and a half walls.
Friend's girlfriend was livid.

I only needed to check with one customer, but anything but an immediate "I'll write off my entire day and risk upsetting customers by not checking first" clearly wasn't acceptable.

Sometimes . . . my ex texts to ask if I can help tomorrow by taking my daughter early - 10:30am instead of 7pm. I text back that I should be able to (self-employed) and I will confirm later.
I immediately get a reply saying "forget it, I'll get someone else to do it".

I recall standing on first girlfriend's doorstep for a good 30 minutes waffling, while my brain went "so do I just go for it?", "I have no idea", "what's the worst that could happen?", "Oh god, somebody do something" etc.
I did, eventually, go for it, but it was touch and go.

A painted bat, with orange body and orange and black striped wings, flying against a dark green background
Kerivoula picta, the painted bat, looks like a figment of Halloween's imagination, but is real. Very sadly they're endangered, but the fact they exist is a pretty magical thing to think about today: www.batcon.org/bat/kerivoul...

There are plenty of stories of cats, dogs and other animals, but last Thursday my recycling bin vanished from the path outside my house (having been emptied) and today was standing in the same spot, looking a little sheepish.
