Undiscovered chocolate found in the fridge behind the tomtato puree. I quickly moved it to the fruit basket, as you do. A morning without slipping into tiresome rant mode. A verbal shopping list of things and issues that probably don't bother me that much but I feel like they should. So I bite. At my time of life I should know better etc. 

Anyway I enjoyed a nice haircut yesterday. As I live close to the shop I can carry out a recce quite easily. Too many people waiting and I retire homewards to wait. Maybe one person and I'd risk it. The sweet spot is of course nobody else being there and I can pick a chair. Have a quick chat with their pet budgies and then get down to business. If you're over 70 they charge even less, so you can leave a decent tip and feel good about yourself.

It was one of my better impulses. My Jellycat (direct) parcels arrived. Almost quicker than Amazon and including some custom printing, all in 32 hours. Whatever your JC opinions, I can only say "expensive but shit hot". I like it. Grandchildren deserve this stuff.

Kill switch. I have one on a Fender lead but I want to install one proper. I'm doing research. It's a guitar thing that I can't quite put to rest. Easy job but a small pain in the arse to drill into a guitar body. Hmm.

I've reached the point in life where murder mystery TV shows have some limited appeal. I never thought it would happen to me. I could stop anytime and I probably will. The whole detective drama exercise is over rated. Real life murder is the worst thing, too many ripples, no controls. TV degrades and distorts. It (murder mystery) belongs in books.
