Robert Fripp's Diary

World HQ Bredonborough A morning

World HQ, Bredonborough.

A morning continuing-to-catch-up with time away. Time away = 12 days, catching up =  6 to 12 days, mainly governed by the preparatory period (6 to 12 days). That is, 12 days away = 24 days of attention diverted.

Time away is often intensive time, which gives something that mere duration does not. But, intensity comes with a price.

Off to King’s Heath to deal with malfunction in the left arm.

20.56    The outbreak of extreme pins & needles in my arm is, apparently, triggered by the C8 neck vertebra. The problem has been with me for several weeks, and not helpful playing guitar.

Our Enemy is Our Friend
:: Posted by TheMarkedMan on October 11, 2010
… "Our enemy is our friend". I recall Robert claiming within the past year that he could not fully invest in Christianity because of one particular tenet; one must love one’s enemies.

Actually this is not a comment on the Christian injunction, rather the poverty of my nature.

Air Iberia
:: Posted by mac8104 on October 08, 2010
Am I reading Fripp’s diary correctly? Did he subject himself again to Air Iberia? IS that the only option to Argentina?

There are other options, but now that Air Iberia is in different hands to those that held the controls 20 years ago the airline has entered the 21st. century; eg no-smoking means no-smoking. AI even has a few good deals for twitchy fliers of a post-mature status, is generally a more relaxed air-event than BA, does not go via the US (as with United) and has some newish ‘planes & equipage. So, an option.
