Saturday 17th October

Saturday was an OK day. Sue's sister Pat called in and they went out to lunch. Then we went to the garden centre to get some plants and some compost before getting some shopping done. The my friend Colin rang and we chatted for almost an hour. Before I knew it it was F1 qualifying and that overran by almost two hours. We then waited until Strictly Come Dancing had finished and then watched it from the start. It was about midnight and I should have gone to bed but no, I stayed up and watched a film. Hence this post at 4.15.

I've started writing lyrics to a tune I've been carrying around. Only one verse so far but I'm hopeful that it'll come together. I need to sit still to write. I'm a lazy songwriter in that I only write when I have something to say, but I'm not lazy once I do start writing. I work hard to make the lyrics scan and rhyme, with a regular and consistent metre. Call me old fashioned, but that's what I like, and I take pride in my craft. I don't know if my work is any good- that's for others to decide.

By the way, if you read this, please please please add your comment. Friends are telling me that they are reading my posts. Just say hello when you drop by.
