I'm starting the day by looking at some CD booklet design drafts ... later on I'm going to crawl out of my hermit hole here and go to a concert: that will be radical. Yesterday morning I picked Pamela up from the station, so that before her rehearsal she could come over and play impossible stunt recorder overdubs on the tracks I've been putting together. She laid about 15 recorders out on the sofa and asked me which one to use: and I had absolutely no idea.

The RSAMD foyer is a very useful place for bumping into musicians, which I guess is partly what it was designed for. So after hearing Peter Whelan and Pamela do amazing things with their respective concertos by Antonin Reichenauer (a new discovery) and Vivaldi, I could catch up with a few people before getting back on my bike.

Dull task of the day was trawling through the tapes of our Edinburgh concerts in search of clean room atmos. I found some eventually.
