GAS (Gadget Acquisition Syndrome) and nice trees.

Yesterday, Cath's daughter Emily came for her Christmas visit and blagged my old digital camera off me as a gift, allowing me to buy a nice new Fujifilm S1000fd - it takes REALLY nice snapshots at 10 megapixels and is the last purchase with the last gig money for some time.

Today my hand is pretty sore and I am starting to ponder more and more the impending surgical procedure - it's not so much the procedure that worries me as the NHS cavalier attitude to pain relief. Still, I am adamant that I will have it done under local anaesthetic.

The rest of the Boxing day gig money was spent on a new MP3 player (my old one crapped out) which I am now filling with a mixture of loud rock'n'roll (for those 'bonesaw' moments) and soothing psychedelia (Emily gave me 'Oar' by Skip Spence for Christmas - beauty!)
