Home alone

[plastic penguin]

Mrs. P is going for respite tomorrow for two weeks, next Tuesday my daughter is going on holiday in Devon for a fortnight.

Given my scary couple of days in hospital last Friday, any suggestions to keep me busy and keep my spirits up?

Leema into Dali at twice your usual listening level 👍

Blast away the clouds.

Stevie Wonder, 'Another Star' to start you off.

Painting and decorating? Gardening? Give yer car a thorough clean? Enjoy the peace and quiet? Start lots of threads here

 

[Friesiansam]

Or, go nuts, then hire a cleaner to come in on the last day, so Mrs P will be none the wiser...

Was thinking about going to Unilet hi-fi in New Malden to listen to some Leema gear. But New Malden is a part of the extended Congestion & ULEZ charge. What a bummer.

Week in Thailand; that will keep you busy and keep it up!

You must be kidding! That's enough to dampen my ardour.

I don’t think that’s the case till 23 August having just checked the TfL site. CC is very central only, Current ULEZ comes down to Wandsworth but areas like Wimbledon and Richmond Park aren’t currently in it. You’d have to approach from the South West, M25 J10 gets you on the A3 which takes you very close to New Malden.

On a side note did you see the latest Leema Quantum announcement? See ‘the ear’s’ website. Apparently it will be at ‘the North West audio show in Cranage’, no idea where that is, this weekend, also see ‘the ear’.

Any friends you haven't seen for a while?

If it's August this year that's fine.

I actually live 4 miles from J10 M25. But I normally cut through Chessington which brings you to A3 at Hook. This is just junctions along the A3.

Thanks

No. My school mates all live in London. Anyone in our village I'll see on Saturday as it's our village carnival.

Anywhere else you’d recommend in that general area as I’m not that far away? At some point I’ve used most of the Richer Sounds from Weybridge into the centre of London and similarly for SSV. Thanks.

Bummer indeed, I used to stay in New Malden many moons ago when I was at Kingston Poly.
Can you not take a bus?

I know the Poly well. Used to deal with their printing dept.

No, several buses to get to Kingston.

Bummer.....what do they charge to enter that zone as a matter of interest?
Not that I am likely to return to my old haunts anytime soon.

Not too expensive, think for both around £20 or so. But if I'm not buying that £20 could go towards a fishing permit at a local lake.

I once had a week and a bit off. I drove from York to visit friends in Nottingham, Leicester, London, Chester and Liverpool. Was great to meet several old friends in one trip. Driving round NC500 is on my agenda, hopefully later this summer.

I’ve wanted to do the NC500 for a few years. Even just getting to the start could potentially be a really good trip.
