Blog ≫ 2020 ≫ Thinking of getting another record deck

Thing one was saying how out of date his French text book is, it has examples including "the tape recorder" and other archaic terms. This reminded me, I must have a picture of a tape recorder for him, and I found this one. It looks like him.

Then at the same time I found this picture of me with my record player. This picture is really fading fast so best digitise it before it disappears completely, Back To The Future style. I think it's just fading because pictures do fade, rather than someone messing with the time lines.

I would definitely use a new record deck, I would play my records all the time, it would not be a waste of money...

Did a good 10k run, to the Harbour Arm and back, and went to the Inn Doors yesterday and started making plans for a day out next week, another Jolly Boys Outing 1. It can only happen if we don't go away as a family I think, or maybe I can fit in both. I see today that there was a vegan market in Folkestone yesterday too, completely missed that.

Back to my DIY this morning, still painting the study. I do want to put in a new socket in there, not sure if I can do it myself, I just want to spur off one that is on the other side of the wall in the utility room. I have frittered away an hour of good painting time looking at new backpacks. I can't decide. I have already made tonight's penne arrabiata though so not completely wasting the morning.

Last week of half term for the boys, and one of them has a bonus day off on Friday. Will we get to do anything or go anywhere in half term?

10k: Ten kilometres, about six miles to you. Sometimes talking about 10,000 steps though, an arbitrary daily step-count target.
