Milly, could it have been this film you were thinking of? Brrr.
Indeed it was Mort. The Chain Saw Massacre. Thanks  |

 Here he is, Millie, and he doesn't look grumpy. I am sure he has nice glass of wine and will have more. T-p, he looks quite benevolent on your picture I have to admit, but he can so easily turn from that to demented - I think he's a genius. One of my favourite films is called "As Good As It Gets". There's something wrong with all the characters and put all together it is both poignant and absolutely hilarious. He has OCD in the film and whilst looking after someone's dog, he makes it the same and it's pictured hopping over all the cracks in the pavement like him. |

 Shirley Maclaine and Jack Nicholson are two very neurotic personalities that can change quickly. Does anybody like Shirley? |

I like Shirley. Multi-talented lady, if a little eccentric.

I am investigating smaller record labels. So far I though that Naxos was small, but my information is outdated.
I want to investigate really small labels and what kind of music they offer. Therefore I am busy and not grumpy. Try this, one, t-p! One of the best.  http://www.delphianrecords.co.uk/ |

What a horrible wet grim day.
I've got to teach some beginners how to play the gamelan so that we can play for HRH the Duke of Gloucester for about 5 minutes tomorrow.
Hopefully the department and the gamelan group will see some benefit from this, but I'll be long gone by then (not as in dead, but in a different place).

I'm officially grumpy. I was supposed to have submitted a 2500-word article on Robin Holloway yesterday. It's late, which is normal for me, to be honest, and wouldn't exactly make me grumpy, though maybe a bit stressed. But after writing about 1100 words on Sunday morning and then wasting most of the afternoon, I thought I should at least refresh my mind with some listening on Sunday evening. And I can't find any of my Holloway CDs, except the Fourth Concerto for Orchestra, which is the one I'm writing about. But I want to compare it with the Symphony and the Third Concerto, and they're not where they were 2 or 3 weeks ago, and I obviously must have picked them up and put them "somewhere" ready for listening. I spent another hour looking last night and I still can't find them. If I actually had some shelves for my CDs in the first place instead of keeping them in piles on the floor then I wouldn't have to rely on things finding their way to the top of the pile at the right moment.  |

I've been looking for the score for my realisation of Paragraph 5 from Cardew's The Great Learning which I ut down somewhere a week ago because it's got some annotations that I want to turn into a new piece (called Aubergine) but it seems to have disappeared. Haven't quite turned the house upside-down yet but I will probably have to.
The threatened Big Tidy that's been looming for the last two years looks frighteningly inevitable now.

Look in the fridge t_is_now, that is where everything ends up eventually!!
As for shelves for cds , years ago before I could afford shelving, I used planks and bricks( at each end) they worked well and it was possible to organise cds cheaply!!
Hope you have found the ones you need.

When you find it HH, you should write your Aubergine, and make it one movement contained within a larger work called Thai Curry. Baz |

A, there's an elephant in the fridge but no CDs, I'm afraid.  hh, fantastic title! Another composer friend of mine wrote a piece called Tiramisu, and has been promising me for years to follow it up with a series of pieces named after recipes, in which each piece will last the same length of time that the recipe takes to cook. I must remind him about that. |

Your realization of the whole thing, hh? I'd love to see your notation of the dumb-show. And how about "Tube Train Stopped betweem Stations"? ;-)
