I think Boy was a little bewildered to have a 'second' birhtday today after the party last week, so we may have to try and avoid spreading it out like this next year.
Good day though of course, and he had fun opening all the family presents. Blo-pens, Magnetix Construction, Transformers and a Cycle Helmet. Real boys stuff which is just what he needs.
Pizza Hut for lunch and then out on his bike most of the afternoon while everyone else bickered and fought over the blo-pens. He is developing quite a skill at keeping out of the way when his sisters start arguing.

Almost too hot in the garden this afternoon. The weather's gone all crap again.
really s a bizarre year.

I've had a good session writing this evening, concentrating on making a thorough archive of all my Foxx interview recordings. Something i started a year ago now, and it's quite embarassing the mess they were all in. Sorted now, and I'm inspired to keep on with more transcripts. I've actually done shamefully few of them - only 13 out of 35 as it turns out!
That's because most of the work I have done has been on the published media from the music papers.
But I fancy a change now and then…

I need to find copies of the Riverside TV show from September 1983 and the VH-1 interview from November 2001. So far these are the only two that I know exist but I don't have copies of.
