Getting some new record storage built so I can get some of this stuff off the floor! Much too late in the day I’ve started cataloging my collection…what a joy to stumble across stuff I’d forgotten about. Damn this is satisfying! Organising Chaos! #Vinyl #Collection #MusicSky

Lunch out. Pints with an old pal. A Japanese murder mystery novel. And the new season of Slow Horses. Today is the antidote to a long, tough week. Rarely been so happy to see a weekend.
