Monday 9th September 2024

Woke around 0930 feeling weary...rather a disturbed night's sleep for some reason. I dreamt Eileen Davidson had an album in the LP chart; bizarrely, her husband Steve also had one. The cover of the former showed Eileen pulling away from an unknown gentleman; Steve's album covered featured his face beside a blown up image of a violin! The notion that Ste "The Policeman" plays the violin is very amusing! Got up and porridged. Rehearsed a couple of "Witch" numbers in the back bedroom. Lunched early on fried tomatoes and cheese on toast, then set off for the bus stop opposite the Sobell Sports Centre. Hopped on a No.29 bus to Camden Town, and descended into the station to take a Northern Line train to Golders Green. Walked up the Finchley Road for an appointment for a scan on my left inguinal hernia at the Health Centre. The scan operator said nothing untoward showed up; still await the results of Friday's testicular scan. Walked back down to the tube station; got out at Chalk Farm and walked down into Camden Town, though Camden Market. Turned right up Parkway to take a look at the Dolsot Korean restaurant, which I thought we had previously visited with Katrina, but I don't recall the BBQ tables, so not sure. Ended up at Guitar Guitar to seek advice on how to dirty up the sound of my electric guitar, given that I'm putting it through an acoustic amp. The guy sold me a Woodrow pre-amp pedal (for £325!). Took the No.253 bus home. Aki had returned from Waitrose with some supplies. Read some Dickens and listened to some Naima Bock. Aki cooked a carbonara for dinner. Watched Jamie Oliver do some cooking in his garden shed.
