Listening to some hi-res audio. Recordings are from 1964. Stereo recording became commercially available in 1958, but there was a ten-year overlap, and quite a number of mono recordings until 1968. Clarity is excellent, but mono is very noticeable on headphones, and some early stereo poorly mixed.
I was awake around six. I saw my wife off to work, and then made coffee and checked emails. I then did some hoeing and weeding in the vegetable patch, and watered everything that needed a drop. Now I’m cooking some sausages to make a sandwich for breakfast, with more coffee, of course.
The weather app on my computer (and phone) said 0% chance of rain for the next ten days. So, I come out in just t-shirt and shorts. I’m sitting in a coffee shop, and… it’s raining outside. No, I don’t carry an umbrella, they are a total pain in the backside, and I always leave them somewhere anyway.
First of ten days off.Got a bunch of stuff lined up. Today, I’m off to Wembley later for a London Underground reunion.
That’s half the year gone already! Apparently, there’s another hastened coming here this weekend. We shall see.
Personal grooming day today. Haircut, shave, facial massage and the brutal waxing. Guys can do the pampering thing too!
