July 6th

Hear from the Agency about the Song I have written for the well known Sports wear firm and their new Premiership client. The office love it and can they have the lyrics for the client meeting. Quite frankly they don’t bear close scrutiny. Still it’s all a lottery.
Decided to go and see my pal Paul at Carlin Music. He and Nick run the Library music company and also their own publishing division called Destiny. Following the parting of ways with my former business partner they have agreed to administer my own company, Cynical Songs. I needed to collect some documentation and we go for a quick drink. Always good company and a pleasure to work with.

I feel absolutely exhausted. This is no doubt the culmination of a few very late nights and early mornings, tight deadlines and 2 young children. Driving back from Chalk Farm I stop at a set of traffic lights. I am awoken by angry drivers hooting their horns, screaming at me, and trying to drive round me. I turn the A/C on to full and slap my face continuously till I get home. I abandon my trip to the bank and lie on the bed. I’m awoken by the lovely Amanda at about 5:30 to go pick up the kids.
