morning, I hope al is well. All OK here, but I did come back from playing music last night to find my kids had somehow created a mess in the sink worthy of Withnail And I. Yes, a sink full of matter.   

This week I have mostly been getting my sh*t togther and making more tee shirts as the first lot of Get Thy Sh*t together tees sold in about an hour, which may well be some kind of Trunk record. The new ones are all here, in black with white print and also slate green which is like a grey green colour with blue print. By the way I write sh*t like that so my email doesn't get spotted as offensive and sent to spam or trash. 

Very sad and really shocking news yesterday about the passing of the young Steve Mackey, bassists of Pulp and all round creative monster. I had met him many times, Dj'd with him and helped him find some elusive Jean Cocteau spoken word recordings for a project back in 2018. He was also the only person I ever met who could carry off wearing white shoes. The world is a slightly less cool place now he has gone. Also I'm now even more determined to live each short day as best I can.

Great news that Ron's place has been saved - bought for the trust I believe by a groovy benefactor. I was going to post this video about it and link to the go fund me page but it has been saved now. Worth watching the short film about Ron's secret and bizarre outsider art den though.  

I'm now off to the Spitlafields Records Fayre. Today's challenge is to not spend any money. 

Thanks for listening as always

Jonny
