Who? What? When? Where? How?Ex-broadcaster. Now: synth player, web/IT nerd, grammar nazi, gin fiend, occasional stand-up comedian and all-round curmudgeon. Not entirely serious.

FINALLY got my old #Korg #synth workstation back from the repairer. Great to have it back.

Much as I LOVE the very new #Roland Fantom 0 workstation, the Korg has some gorgeous sounds on it.

It’s been relocated to the upper deck though as it’ll be in semi-retirement.

UPDATE: The roast chicken, potatoes, garlic-infused chantenay carrots and white wine gravy were so good, we had to open a second bottle. Step forward, our old friend Faustino VII, with a slight label redesign and reliable taste. #tempranillo #rioja

Cooking a roast chicken dinner, as I’ve not had one for weeks, and it’ll be the only night this weekend when I’ve got time.

Trying a new (to me) wine tonight. I have all the usual preferred wines on standby, just in case it’s no good, or we need a second/third bottle. #bergerac #tempranillo

It’s a story as old as time. Well at least as old as HG Wells…

"The lawgiver, of all beings, most owes the law allegiance. He of all men should behave as though the law compelled him. But it is the universal weakness of mankind that what we are given to administer we presently imagine we own.

– H.G. Wells"

Sigh.

Omg I'm laughing so much 😂😂😂😂

Eating the Cats (Donald Trump Remix)

It’s not that I don’t like Mastodon, it’s more that most mutuals moved to BlueSky, which is more like Twitter.

I did try posting on all the platforms I signed up to, while looking for a Twitter replacement - Twitter, Mastodon, BlueSky, Spoutible and Counter Social - but it was exhausting!

One thing I do like about Mastodon though, is the 500 character limit. Plus it’s a federated approach.

I don't want to let the Cat out of the Bag but I'm currently in alot of trouble with the RSPCA.

— seen on the Twitter, uncredited, but it made me chuckle.

God that was a terribly stressful workday, but I got through it. Post-dinner, I'm now going to tackle figuring out the keyboard parts of some new songs for the band.

In a client meeting with a colleague and two peeps from a client (all over 40yo):

Client1: You guys are the professionals.

Me: Am I Bodie or Doyle? Ugh... I'm probably Cowley by now.

Everyone: <tumbleweed>

Me: Oh come on, I'm not THAT much older than you all.

Having post-badminton pints in my local.

The couple we played (and beat) tonight turned out to be in their mid-twenties not late thirties. I’m in my mid-fifties!

Now having THE sourest sour ever - Vault Dweller.
