A knock at the door…
Corona virus lockdown day 11 Sunday, it was Sunday. I have to keep reminding myself what day it is. We stacked more wood, I did some work. A bit of garden and work outside. A shared lunch, chat with a neighbour or passer by from a distance. Later, after getting the Multitrack input working yesterday,…

Friyay!
Coronavirus lockdown day 9 We still haven’t had to venture out – we’ve had nearly everything we need delivered to us. Groceries, a computer, and today, a large pile of wood. Four cubic metres, and some kindling. So that’s what were doing this weekend. Stacking and piling into the woodshed and building some cover so…

Can we turn the world off, then on again?
Coronavirus lockdown day 8 Hmm, it might be time to kick it in the guts Trev – everything’s busy and backward and slow and fast. When in doubt, reboot! A busy work day, but a bit late as the files came in around 5pm. Re-cut one piece, moved things around a bit, and oh, finesse…

Week one feels like a month
Coronavirus lockdown day 7 The dog was up early, barking at us. I slept a little late after a couple of beers last night. The first beers in a while, to be fair. So after annoying us, the dog went and sat in front of the teenager’s face. (Remember everything was taken out of the…

Quarasurf, or Jamkazam
Coronavirus lockdown day 6 It was just like the old days at Sawyers Arms Road. Well, it would have been if I was in the garage. Two of the three of us were. We used to jam and write and never, ever drink in a tin triple garage out the back of a flat where…

We won’t go back to normal because ‘the normal’ is the problem
Coronavirus lockdown day 3 "We won't go back to normal, because 'the normal' was the problem." pic.twitter.com/Lu7mkydR6p — Giorgos Kallis (@g_kallis) March 27, 2020 I saw this on twitter and it struck a chord. There’s massive social and economic change ahead; the carnage will be painful but it also gives us a chance to rebuild…

Why women kill
Coronavirus lockdown day 2 So by the end of day 2, it was suggested we watch Why Women Kill as the Friday night entertainment! Jokes aside, it’s a good watch, the continuity is well done between the three stories. We’re not getting on badly at all! I’m doing three or four hours of online meetings…

The end of the world as we know it
Coronavirus lockdown day 1 I’ve been through emergencies before – earthquakes, fires, floods, tsunami alerts – pretty much the works. But never anything like this. One-third of the world is in lockdown. One-third! It’s frightening, and the speed and severity of the spread is still dawning on some people, and some countries, around the world.…
