Playing Ma Geetar

Having mildly hurt my wrist at the weekend playing guitar I was somewhat pessimistic, notably on account of an impending gig and the need for practice. Praise the good Lord I managed to play the guitar for half hour this evening without being in too much pain! Huzzah. We see how a full on rock n roll sesh on Saturday.

Now watching a bit of QI on Dave, tres amusing. It does make me smile, the odd mix of silliness and cleverness.

Getting my groove on

So 2013 has been somewhat haphazard and quite underwhelming. It has however had some good things going for it.

I feel like I am getting into my groove on le novel. This is exciting and particularly satisfying. Seeing something take shape, having been working on it for five years I guess it now falls under the category of 'labour of love'. It still makes me smile, occasionally laugh and as each new page takes shape I get a sense of growing satisfaction.

The band has a gig in a couple of weeks, The Comedy near Piccadilly Circus on Weds 23rd January. Am looking forward to tearing it up on stage with my bros. We also have some new songs in the pipeline which is great. I do love getting to play live. Now just hoping that my wrist recovers quickly before band practice this weekend.

In other news I just had my first shave of 2013, yes back to underwhelming!

Ooh What's This?

Today is notable in my eyes for one thing. I used my new keyboard for my Google Nexus7. Infact I am currently sitting on the sofa and typing away with it now. Not only am I using this rather fabulous keyboard (big thanks to my gorgeous wife) I wrote another chapter of le novel! Granted it wasn't the longest of chapters, okay it was a short chapter, but it's another chapter. Get in.

Now for some chocolate!
