Day Two – less miles more hill.
Managed another trip. This time up hill out of town and managed to get into the refuse station with my recycled rubbish for free! Whooh! I saved €3 and got fit pulling the bike trailer up the hill.
Not sure if they would charge me but they seemed to just ignore me as dumped my stuff in the bins. Can they really count me as a vehicle? Will I ask them the next time if they have an official policy on bike trailers?
In other news: i spoke to a musician friend and we are getting together to talk about doing a show together. Crazy huh? Remember you heard it here first…..

The Joy of Internet Radio

I’m listening to internet radio on the computer. Stephen Kent who was the original Ra-Ra Zoo Musician has a radio show in San Francisco where he plays exotic music from around the world every week. I really like his choices and it’s great that they have an archive of the last few weeks shows so you can listen later.
He just plays the music with no chat which is great though sometimes I would like to hear his voice too. Oh his voice just came on, about 20 minutes in, how nice.
