A Strong End to a Volatile Week

It has been a week of ups and downs but it has finished on a positive note.

I was thrown into a bit of a maelstrom today with some work that needed to be finished, immediately followed by a trip to the bank manager, followed by a meet up with a friend, followed by a trip to pick the kids up from school.

The meeting with the friend (the Sound Man) was pre-planned and I have not seen him for quite some time.  When I DJed regularly he used to supply most of my work.  The trip to pick up the kids was unplanned but the snow forced us to go straight to school rather than dropping me off first.

The Sound Man has a festival planned next year for the 28th and 29th May, which should be a lot of fun.  It is 80's themed and so far includes

• Kool and the Gang
• Billy Ocean
• Jocelyn Brown and the Brand New Heavies
• Aswad
• Oddessey
• Heatwave
• Imagination
• Nick Kershaw
• ABC
• Tony Hadley (lead singer of Spandau Ballet)

He wanted me to DJ between acts and I would love to do it (nothing better than a big audience), but I cannot commit to being in shape.  It is a shame, but I still aim to be at the event and have my fair share of fun.

It was good to catch up.  We spent many and evening DJing together and have many tales.

Whilst all this went on Kitten managed to do a bit of Christmas shopping too.

So a busy end to the week and feeling good too.  It may seem just like a normal day but at the moment it is more than a man can ask for!
