        What's on the agenda this week?

        Cloughie seems to have excellent knowledge of pop music. Suspect there could be a Ken Dodd album or two among the ASDs and SXLs!

        I take a greater interest the whole of football when Leicester win, know what I mean?

        Awaiting delivery of the Arnold Cooke disc recommended by Rob.

            Cloughers also seems to have a detailed knowledge of steam locomotives which has led me to discover that Edmund Rubbra's brother was a famous designer of aero engines .....

              all eyes on the sales figures down here. Need everything to stay on track over the next 10 days so that we turn in a profit...and my boss decided to go on his hols till the new year .

              So, I'm thinking positive, and assuming that everything will go swimmingly , and it'll be plaudits and pay rises all round........

              And if it doesn't, I should have some Rach and Chopin to cheer me up at the RFH weds night, Jurowski and the LPO doing their thing.

              Wish I could have organised some work round that Tchaik 1 at Maida Vale tomorrow, but wasn't to be.
              I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

                  Cheers, ER. one of those fancy new boilers you can set from your smartphone while you lie on the beach ?

                  Thanks for flagging up that concert, I'm keen to hear that.Daughter did some work with Kenneth Hesketh at Uni. She was very impressed with him, and said he was a lovely bloke too. Hope you enjoy the concert.

                    Sorry to disappoint - no Dodd LPs - My reference to his tracks comes from his annoying habit of cluttering the No 1 spot for weeks back in the mid 60s.

                      That is disappointing! I took the trouble to sample his hits on I tunes. Not much of a voice really.

                        No but not offensive and in tune!

                          Re Ken Dodd - we watched the last episode of the latest Attenborough series earlier this evening and I remarked that delivering his closing address perched windswept atop the London shard with ample hair waving free David A looked a bit like Ken Dodd.

                            Nice programmes for Sainty and Rob.

                            Fantastic pianist at the RFH, one of the best of the young generation. Hope Jurowski not too intellectual in the symphony.

                              It's like 2017 never happened.

                              Day off for me tomorrow, and also Friday.

                              Bit of gardening in the morning, and might take a trip to a NT place in the afternoon. Took out membership last month as I am on the verge of cutting back my working hours ( a bit) so should have a bit more time for self improvement.

                              Shouldn't be difficult......

                                Good bit of resurrecting Sainty.

                                Gives me the chance to ask The Edge how he enjoyed the Antheil concert last Wednesday?
