I'm out today recording lots of stuff at a conference/trade fair. I've got my recording rucksack full of various recording gear.

On my portable recorder I'll be using the windguard, or 'Peter' as I like to call it.

I've never done Caturday before, but we got two gorgeous rescue cats on Thursday, after spending over a year with no cats at all. Here's one of them. She's currently snoring. Yes those are my Sesame Street socks.
