Well been away from this space for a while, where have i been? friggin around on facebook, wasting my life away, working, more work and so on.

My son moved out into his own place and at the moment i'm making plans for what to do with his room, its looking favorite that i'll be moving my study in there the attic is great just too cold in winter too hot in summer, at the moment i'm stipping the walls, dismantling the computer desk i built for him all those years ago. Plans include rewire for the sockets and lighting i want split lighting, coloured down lighters but i also want a light/fan for the centre of the room. after which patch up the plaster and decorate and lay new flooring. Question is what i move into there? Computer, guitars, amp, 4 track recording unit, Hi-Fi, massive CD collection, its only a small back bedroom. I have the blockhouse at the side of my house, i built this myself many years ago from 300 breeze block, i've since fitted double glazed windows and a uPVC door (courtesy of Camerons, well whatever contract we where working on at the time) anyway in here i plan to have my drum kit set up, well the electronic kit but via a small amplifer and then i can use my real cynbals. This is for when i get my new 4 track recorder to replace my old faithful Fostex cassette unit i can get back to working on my songs flesh them out a bit more.

I need to find materials for my new computer desk i have some good ideas for building as opposed to buying one and adjusting everything to suit. Theres a unit near our office that cuts granite to size, but as i sit here and look at this desk granite would be a waste as u can't see my desk top for the stuff stacked on here, monitor, speaker system, printers etc. etc. smoked glass? reclaimed oak? i want something different, typical me i can never go the easy route.

My guitaring, well i'm enjoying playing as i have a beautiful 12 string that makes my simple ditties sound so rich, i need as new 6 string acoustic as my old "Encore bowl back" sounds rather poor compared to my Epiphone 12 string, i had a beauty of a guitar "Aria Elecord AE-100" i say had while i was still in the band the guitarist pestered the life out of me to sell it too him and i eventually gave in, i since found out he went and traded it in shortly after prying from my hands, i'm so pissed off about this i never wanted to part with it in the 1st place, and for all my searching i have never spotted another like it.

Right enough of my ramblings i can't wait for my new recording unit gimme something to do apart from sitting here typing and gaming.
