just hangin' with Miss T*

still sick, gettin' pretty boring subject being sick.

Day was saved by a call by Missy T*, the cat in the hat in the flat.

Lots of good stuff today, Kenny Wayne Shepherd CD, "10 days out, blues from the backroads",blues harp waking up Lunden with artists including BBking,Clarence"gatemouth" brown,Honeyboy Edwards, reminds me of days gone by and the "Preservation Hall", within earshot of the 1 oclock gun at Edinburgh Castle where "Blues n' Trouble" used to rock the house to the small wee hours, people dancin' on the tables and not a cocktail in site, or slick back hair.
It all ended when they started putting decibel limiters in the pubs in Edinburgh.

(A wee note that Blues N trouble, a local group went on to be support band to BB king on his British tour and he was later said to say they were the best white blues band he had ever heard.)

Day was filled with sushi buffets, pool halls with more rules than a geometry lesson and a lot of good time conversation. Shops filled with new junk, old junk, loud junk, bright junk, skin creams, The Cream, from stonecakes to stone in jewellery, we counted 7 shops for her and 4 for me.

Time doesn't stand still when your having fun, so the day is nearly ended and just to enhance the black n white experience they decided to show a Hitchcock movie.
Nevermind the story line, admire the directors camera angles and lighting effects.

Last but not least, "who is that stoopid girl" whose walking around not knowing. Kinda annoying huh..
Back to blues harp, a weeks worth of dish and a grin a cheshire cat would be jealous of!
