Grey hairs say otherwise!
I just reminded Hel it was ten years to which she said I begged you not to, to which I replied good thing I didnât listen to you then!

^ upon consideration, this image does a remarkably poor job of conveying quite how much single malt has been consumed this eveningâŠ
It is, however, now twenty-past 5 in the AM, and I am fucked in ways that are set to cause pain for at least two more days I suspectâŠ
Nite nite John-Boy⊠zzzzzzzzzâŠ
Off to river cottage today to do a fish and shellfish cookery course my wife bought for my birthday, Iâve done a few there and it is always a delight to be there

Theyâd met before when Sam and I had a hol in Jackfield just up the road from Mick and Jan, which helped. We also have a soft cloth muzzle for Max which goes on so he can get his introductory growling and snapping out of his system without getting nippy: once he feels heâs established his dominance he settles right down⊠Basil and Bandit DGAF either way, they just give him space and wait him out
And now theyâve all gone, heâs sulking, cos he misses them, the daft sod.
Missing them a bit myself TBH, lovely dogs

Killing several hours at BER. Nobody does desolate hellspaces quite like an airport.
The gardens at SchloĂ Charlottenburg were nice this morning anyway. And free.

Tempelhof was nice, although of course its designers/builders were not.
Glad I manage to fly into there when we visited Berlin years ago from LCY.
Tegel was a dump 
Wife not currently laughing at the emergency kit (battery pack, 2 * USB A â C cables) that I carry on trips like this.

Itâs open 10-2 as a sneak preview for Open House London.
Got there ~11.30 to find a massive queue around the block that then turned back on itself
Anyway Iâm pleased for the organisers that they didnât have a âwhat if I threw a party but nobody came?â.
Well it was yesterday if we are going to be pedantic, but a big thanks to @crimsondonkey for hosting, and lugging a metric F*ton of amplifiers up the 10 storeys from the garage to the listening room
It was great to hear the Avantgarde speakers, and even better to talk music, and Wayneâs Doors LA Woman pressings obsession
