I was boring yesterday, but I am interesting today

It's been all go.
Rentokil have been round, and found that rats are coming in the cat-flap, helping themselves to cat food, running round the back of the fridge and storing it under the kitchen units to feast on at their leisure. Cheeky blighters! (the rats, not the men from Rentokil). They covered the kitchen floor with sticky things to make the rats feet stick if they ran out, but they didn't. One of the cats walked over it and didn't stick. Maybe it was specialist rat adhesive.
The men told me about rats helping themselves to bread rolls and storing them in a false ceiling in a KFC in Wood Green or somewhere, and others nicking bags of crisps from a bar and piling them up behind a wall for later.
Maybe we should be training them to do useful things for us, dress them in little nappies so they don't make a mess, and give them a little respect for their intelligence.
Maybe not.

Apart from that I've just send three tracks to the Mad Professor who has probably forgotten me by now and won't like them anyway, but I gotta try. And I've begun a new song which will probably be another rockabilly one. I'm going to the guitar shop in a minute to see if they have a Danelectro footpedal to put a bit o' reverb on my guitar. I can't afford one at the moment but I can afford to daydream about one, and that's what I'll do. I'm also gonna drop off a CD to the blokes who fix my guitars (and those of the Chet Atkins Society and Chas from Chas and Dave- or was Dave from Dave and Chas? Do you think they argue because Chas's name comes first? Did they do it alphabetically? How did they decide to be Chas and Dave and not Charles and David? Shall we form a tribute band singing posh London songs and call ourselves that? Am I boring? No! Am I bored? Yes!!!)

The CD by the Young Marble Giants turned up yesterday. It's perfect for a sunny day, acually. I saw them in Hammersmith years ago and thought they were fantastic. At the time I was still a bass player and I loved the Moxham brother's bass sound. Up there with Andy Warren's. What a band!
