Piano finally moved off to be repaired

The Scottish piano specialist MacLarens arrived today and took away our beloved baby grand to be fully refurbished.  It'll arrive back in six weeks sporting its new glossy ebony guise! And hopefully sounding a whole load better.  Very exciting!

And blimey - we're SO tired!  Our noisy wee alarm raised us from our slumbers this morning in readiness for a very early start.  We presented a few live reports for BBC Breakfast News with the subject being Samantha Cameron and her reluctance to move into Number 10 Downing Street.  Before the kitchen is refurbished, that is.  As long as she doesn't plan public spending to bring it up to scratch she can do precisely what she likes!  Guess she simply doesn't like Brown.  Funny how the nation is already calling her Sam Cam...

After filming was complete we trawled many of Glasgow's various antique stores, still in search of the holy grail ebony credenza for our bathroom.  It's starting to freak us out -  we really need it to finish our Chanel grey spa at home.  Hopefully we'll track something down in London when we head there tomorrow.  Then of course there'll be the drama of getting it back to Scotland...

Yup, London is calling.  We've been booked by Ideal Standard to preside over 25 radio station interviews extolling the virtues of the famous bathroom brand.  That'll certainly be fun as we know their product inside out and we really like it all.  In fact we've used much of their interesting collection in our own places over the last few years.  It's great quality kit and it really lasts and lasts...

And in other news!  We're really getting into True Blood Season II.  Even better, dare we say, than Season 1!  Meanwhile... Jason Stackhouse.  Just saying!  We wonder who else sees the appeal of this mighty man?  Anyone remember him from Neighbours?  Hey - that's going back a bit.  Let us know in our forums? 

Colin is off out on family business but he should be back in half an hour with dinner and hopefully some beers.  We'll probably only manage one ep' of True Blood tonight as we're tired after our early rise.

Trust this finds all you guys well,

More later... xx
