May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
It’s in! My final assignment for this first module of my uni diploma has just been handed in. Photo showing a completed study bar… The clicking of that “submit” button never gets any less scary, I tell ya! Anyway…now for a little bit of downtime for a few weeks in the hope that I get…

And, I really won’t bring it up any further now, BUT….I made this…because I feel a bit giddy. I got my latest assignment result. And, seriously….I’m much more happy about the feedback that has come with it. It’s just wonderful. I cried. But, the mark is reflective of how wonderful the feedback is. So, I…
I won’t be doing any more of these posts. Not for a while anyway. And by “these posts” – I mean discussing my study – here. What I *will* be posting here, I don’t know. I’ll ponder further in a moment. Yesterday I submitted assignment number five for the year. The dreaded ‘reflective student progress’…
Well, it was a great year in music… ‘72. I wanted it to be something that took away some of the sting from missing the Tao gig, but it’s just added to it. I was ssooo proud if this piece. But there we go. “Pride comes before a fall” – that’s what they say, right?…
I’ve had a breakthrough today. A ‘Eureka’ moment, so I’m thinking about this (pic below) right now….just for now. I’ll have to erase it from my mind shortly and get on with the task at hand. I feel ssoooo driven today now. And soooo capable! I can actually feel it. Almost a CONFIDENCE that I…

What a difference a week can make, eh? I tried to shield the blog from it as much as possible, although it didn’t escape unscathed as my mood last weekend was probably at the worst it had been all year – culminating in a complete anxiety attack and me considering chucking in the whole uni…
Not much will be happening here on the blog for the next week as I have to knuckle down for my next uni assignment. Demotivation is starting to rear its ugly head and I need to try and deal with that. So here’s an apt Minds Music Monday choice. I chose this clip because Jim…

Today’s study involved familiarising ourselves in using the OED as an online reference source (student access to it opens up more than you get by going to the site without student/teacher access). We were asked to look up certain words that had been used in poems we’ve been studying this week. One of the poems…
Good news from His Nibs today in his latest post. A number of good news pieces, for him – Villa Angela has once again opened its doors (just in case that whole “being the frontman for the best live band in the world” suddenly starts to go all pear-shaped after 40+ years, like). Whilst it…
