Bredonborough.

Rising at 06.30 & on the street with the Minx & her project shortly afterwards. Now back, morning reading ahead.

10.18    The adventures of Mr. Booby seems to have captured the interest of several Guestbook visitors. I note, visitors hold me accountable for my behaviour in public (this being a public posting) whether witless, clueless, informed, slumbering and/or twitching gently..

A small adventure ahead, with a carpet salesperson visiting town.

19.12    The Minx was scheduled to be interviewed in Birmingham by ITV this afternoon. This has been cancelled: news channels are being cleared for reporting a volcanic dust cloud, erupting in Iceland & moving towards UK airspace.

An afternoon practicing, visiting the Dentist, returning to more practicing.

20.36    E-flurrying. A call to David, addressing the UMG/BMG audit, now without reply for two years. Regrettably, I have had to decline participation in two album projects to make available time to deal with this. From one of the artists…

I have been following your royalty collecting 'adventures' via your diary for years now. From my own small experience with fighting for money, I realise that you only talk about the very tip of the tip of the tip of the iceberg of frustration that you deal with. I am continually staggered at the amount of treacle you have had to slog through and admire your tenacity. I found the letter you wrote to me in 1994 informing me of your intention to fight for your rights against Messrs Alder and Fenwick, BMG and Virgin…  and to find that you are still fighting battles 16 years later is extraordinary... what a tragic waste of your energy and time.

If there is ever anything I can do to help, you know you only have to ask..

To gentle.
