Soup for one

Last night was the 8th edition of Grooveline on XStream East. When I got there, it was the busiest I think I've seen it. For the first time, there was a show before me which starred one of the girls that was at the same induction as I was. Also in the computer room was Katie, who is a girl I used to work with, and the person who persuaded me to join the station. As it happens, right now she'll be on a flight back home to Australia, to where she is relocating for a job at a radio station in Sydney.

The show itself went really well, although it was the most quiet so far, as far as listener response is concerned. Still, I really enjoyed it and thought the music was excellent. And it's always a pleasure to play something from the live session Kaldera did for the show in Reading a few years back.

Elle was out last night, and didn't appear by the time I went to bed. I spent the hour or so before bed watching some more of The Good Shepherd. Anyone that knows me knows I generally don't watch films, but I do have quite a few DVDs, including some that I got from colleagues when I worked at the BBC, so I've decided to start going through them. Although I wouldn't be able to sit through a whole film from start to finish - just too much effort. But I'm quite enjoying this one, and don't have much left to watch.

Tonight I'm having a bath (I'm only mentioning it as it's something I do once a month, showers every day for the rest of the month), tomorrow I'm cooking after work, and I'm off until Monday. Elle is going to her dad's this coming weekend, so I'll be left to my own devices. Sunday is the big, massively important Celtic game. It's also the editorial weekend for Communicaton, and I've yet to make a start on it.
