World HQ.

Another cold day, although the freezing mist of three has lifted.

Morning stuff at World HQ: moving the working base from one room to another. Actually, from two rooms to a third. The front downstairs office, with a fabbo view of Bredonborough Abbey’s spire & a bow window onto the Market Place, is a good place to read, e-mail & diarise. It is not ideal for hardware activities: printing, scanning, dual computers, music work. The key encourager for changing space is the arrival of builders & upcoming building work.

Office No. 2 is to be organised…

…with hardware brought up from the Kitchen…

Office No. 4 is waiting for bookshelves, but does have exactly the radiator I asked not to be installed…

…and the Bathroom is also waiting for, among other items, a bath…


11.25    Office No. 2 is underway!

Biff’s pix from the recent US Soundscapes tour are moving from one hard-drive to another on the Powerbook 15”, diarising is underway on the 17”, printer & snanner are nestling on the worktable next to me; and all surrounded by mess. But, a good mess.  

The major item today is the launch of the new DGM Website. This has
been delayed, firstly, by the size of technical challenge; secondly, hacking; thirdly, getting the credit card fulfilment in place; fourthly, by the size of the challenge. Congratulations & thanks to Eric, Sid, Hugh, Toby, Amy & David.

Online downloading of the DGM archive is now available.

16.25    Mark the Builder is putting paint samples on walls. He has been working outside today and Mark is a very cold builder.

Chris Stein called from London: I am invited to the Blondie show at the Royal Albert Hall this Wednesday, and even welcome to sit-in. I’d love to do this, but we agree it would be problematic: the band use in-ear monitors, so the guest guitarist wouldn’t hear much of anything. In honour of the call & old friends…
