The start of the month and the colors of autumn  are still rich on many of the trees, Its cold but with blue skies. Today I have been watching the US presidential elections weird dysfunctional drama unfold.  At the time of writing we have also moved in to a 4 week period of restrictions in the UK intended to limit the spread of Covid-19.  So not exactly a fun time.  I am trying to keep my mind engaged as much as possible, so I am now revising my French language among other things. <\/p>\n

Musical doings continue in a similar manner with a couple of projects and also some work on weak points in technique and other matters related to it. Its a bit hard keeping up motivation now though frankly.  Some days are better than others.  Today was a bit hard going as I had not been at all today.  The walls do start  to  close in a bit after  a while.  <\/p>\n
