is cold. The first of snow has fallen in the swirling of gusty winds. A forecast of sub-zero temperatures for the next 48 hours. Winter has arrived.

I played a gig tonight. It was for the homeless at St. Mungo’s in Covent Garden. It was fantastic. I really enjoyed it. The audience very receptive and appreciative. I declared my love for my mum and dedicated a song to her; “The Queen of Everything” of course!

The Dash kicked up a storm too. As did a favorite of mine, Charlie of “The Coolness“.

The bubble of water in my eye has not receded and I will visit the Western Eye Hospital again tomorrow morning, weather permitting, for a second opinion. I’ve been there before and in reality, this is the fourth diagnosis I am seeking as first I had was in Malaysia, then another from my GP when I arrived back in London, then the Western Eye Hospital. I have tried to research this online and feel it might be some diagnosis other than “water retention”.

Some other things on my list for tomorrow is a visit to the Levi’s store in Regent Street. I seem to have grown out of my desire to have my jeans hanging on my hips that give an illusion of a longer body, to having it slightly higher. I have been wearing this new pair of high waisted jeans this for the last 3 weeks (yes, I have washed them every week) as I can’t bring myself to don my old 507′s.

Another thing on my list is a visit to the Apple Store also in Regent Street to configure my laptop and possibly bring it home tomorrow. I was a bit hesitant as it will cost me around £1500, software included. I do however feel the urge to start remixing, recording, producing, writing and generally being artistically creative.

Today has been a good day. I am grateful.

I must profess my love for “The Cardigans“!
