Worth re-visiting old images (March 2010) and trying different processing? Feel I was a little "safe" back then.

Got checked out today to see how things are healing. Less than a week, but things progressing well.

Photo taken by the canal a few weeks back. Not sure if the fist relates to the text.

SNJO + Peter Erskine + Marcio Doctor, Play the music of Weather Report, QH, 24 Feb 2012

A good concert rather than a great one. Some very talented people involved in re-arranging the work of Zawinul, Shorter and Pastorius for a big band. Some excellent playing as you would expect from SNJO, but overall didn't quite work for me. What makes the originals so great are the three supreme writing and playing talents that were the driving force of Weather Report at their peak.

Recovery continues. Seems a lot better than the last time. Good to have some time to play about and do some photography research. Spending a lot of time looking at Street Photography on Flickr and elsewhere.

First time out today for a short walk. Going to QH tonight (sitting!) to listen to SNJO and their take on the music of Weather Report. Have been looking forward to this for a while. As I have stopped taking the drugs, I may even have some light refreshment.

Three letter word beginning with U.

Laughed my socks off at this one. May be an indication as to why the trams fiasco in Edinburgh is taking so long.

Took them two days to spot and change!
