I tried and failed to visit the donkey sanctuary many times. It’s only open on Sundays. We did go to the beach, and visit friends. I got a ton of stuff. I received (at the end of June) and painted (1 main box only) of Tablescapes terrain by Secret Weapon Miniatures.
I also received
Children of the Field folk horror minis
I got books…
I renewed my Undertow (paperback) subscription and got a few books same week
Shadows and Tall Trees 7 (which won a Shirley Jackson!)
Priya Sharma – All the Fabulous Beasts
Margaret Murray – Witchcraft Through the Ages used a gift card at the Monkey’s Paw
Alexander Roob – Alchemy & Mysticism for 5$!
Jayaprakash Satyamurthy – Weird Tales of a Bangalorean (a replacement copy)
Gemma Files – Spectral Evidence
And some DVDs cheap
Twin Peaks s3 and Get Out.
With Sarah’s 6-CD changer, I decided to burn a few CDs to listen to (to avoid damaging all my precious music). I’ve since discovered that the MP3s have some serious volume differences that wouldn’t be an issue if I had just burned a regular CD. Things you forget when you aren’t burning a CD all the time.
In case you’re curious here’s the current rotation (which will change when my wife gets around to her collection:
1: ? & the Mysterians, Bombino, Emily Milling – Impossible Horror Soundtrack, France Gall, Holly Golightly & the Brokeoffs, Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats – Vol 1, Hailu Mergia & his Classical Instrument, Dodge Fiasco, Omar Khorshid and his Guitar
2: Bo Diddley, Hedgehog, Hank Ballard & the Midnighters, John Cale
3:Deadly Snakes, Sunday Sinners, Johnny Cash, JOMF, Inspiral Carpets
4:Sky Records compilation, The Bats, The Raincoats, Eric’s Trip, Ex Hex, Serge Gainsbourg
I am loving Killing Eve.
There was also a matinee concert/brunch seeing Dodge Fiasco
We also had a little weekend get-away to Georgina, ON. I’ll post a million sunset pics in a separate post, because it was really that spectacular.
