We all get up around the same time each day and as there is only one toilet and shower room combined it takes a while for us all to shower and congregate downstairs for a hearty English Breakfast and a hot cup of coffee/tea or two.

It is a good way to start the day and then we will start to do a vocal with Bernie on another Phil & Mick track.  We broke for lunch and then we hit some technical problems that needed to be sorted out. These things happen and on the main thus far we have been lucky. Christos has restrung my guitars so I am itching to get in and do some solos but patience seems to be the order of the day.

Russell and Carly arrived just before dinner so there were big hello’s all around as we had not seen Russell since Finland and Carly since the last recording session.  Bernie did a great vocal and after dinner he did a little more vocalizing to strengthen some of the parts and then Mike, Chris and Will did some work on the computer. So that looks like it for tonight.

There is not enough room for Russell and Carly in the actual studio accommodation so we had to book them a room up at the pub which is 100 yards from the front door of the studio which could be potentially a dangerous move I feel.  Christos has his lady Annie up for a couple of days but they are staying in the caravan outside in the garden. (The song Gypsy springs to mind.) 

I still have not had my walk yet so when I do it will be a long one for sure. I am definitely getting a studio tan. Trevor arrives tomorrow and then it will be harmonies all day long. So it is time for a little glass of vino and off to bed.
