Loving the new series of The Diplomat, which I keep wrongly referring to as The Ambassador.

I seem to have angered local squirrels

The view out of my back door, across the patio. There is a squirrel, standing on the back step, his front paws up on the door frame, looking through the window with an air of ‘You wot mate?’

Crikey. I've got more CDs that I can handle right now but thanks for the offer.

Sometimes see entire sets of these on FB. Is that where you got them?

I haven't seen him anywhere. At all. But I have bought the book. 😄

Looks like it! Really glad I picked it up. Will look out for more Earthworks in the future. 👍

Charity shop jazz: a thing I haven't seen before. The owner has (I'm presuming) meticulously recorded each time he played the CD. Looks like he (and surely it's a 'he') got his money's worth.
