I had a wretchedly busy day at work, and am now relaxing with a very nice Islay malt. Rather than regale you with the dull details of my miserable day, here are some musical gems for your enjoyment and edification.

This one reminded me of going to the Top Club in Washington with my grandpa. Champion, like.


And this one featuring some friends of mine, who you might see now and again busking on the Royal Mile:


I've taken up a new hobby: jewellery making. Not that I was lacking jewellery before, you understand. I have boxes and boxes of the stuff, vintage stuff, all my gramdma's old stuff, Top Shop tat, halfway decent stuff. But we have some great bead shops here in Munich and I am hooked. So tonight, I rustled up a necklace and earrings to cheer myself up. I'll post some soon. There's lots of it - I made five necklaces in a night once, plus various matching bits and bobs. The only problem now is storing it all.

Hope your week was better than mine...
