Ron Carter has postponed his European tour due to health reasons. As far as I can tell it isn't massively worrying and relates to his back. Hoping he has a speedy recovery.
Stumbled across a really obscure record today still sealed in my local shop. An audiobook of 'Haruki Murakami – First Person Singular' narrated by Kotaro Watanabe, limited to 100 copies. Far too intriguing to pass up.
Phew. In the past 2 weeks I have sold and traded more records than the last 2 years combined! I mean, I have also added a couple of dozen as a result of this...but its the thought that counts....right?
A discogs order arrived damaged and the seller said they will replace it if I send the package back at my cost. It isn't a huge amount of money but I'm conflicted as they were the ones that didn't package it well. Guess I just bite the bullet.
After 8.5 years I have accepted a job offer at a different Architecture practice. Really surreal feeling but I can only see it being a good move. Worrying part is im back in a part of London where all the record shops are based!!!
I was lucky enough to be at Centre Court at Wimbledon yesterday. One hell of a great day. Still refuse to buy strawberries there though when you can just bring your own in.
