Scared but bored

A new distraction while locked down:

Watching my cactus grow.

Bored but scared

Stuck indoors forever. Scared stupid about going out. 

This is the new normal they tell us.

I decide to re-arrange the garden.

Lockdown emergency

Forget the toilet roll. I just used my last set of strings!

Stuck indoors

Stuck indoors on virus lockdown. Working from home.

In between times I have stripped and refurbished this Fender Squier stratocaster and customised the switching*.

And then I made this odds and ends guitar from odds and ends, also with customised switching*

*In both cases they got the Gilmour Mod - if you know about these things :)

Short Days

Once again Phoebus has finished his journey south. We're in a dark place at the moment...

Importuning gravel

I am mighty impressed the sea can lift this gravel two meters and dump it all against the beach huts. After all it's only salty water. It doesn't have a mind or anything.

I'm just as impressed that the council will come and put all the gravel back eventually.
