Welcome to Episode 86 of my podcasts, the view from the crow's nest It is Sunday the 30th of August 2020 and I bid the very very Hello he welcomed me welcome. In fact, today was day off so I've got pretty much nothing to say to you. Okay, thanks. Bye now. Couple of things. Very, very much. After yesterday's very very relaxing family day where I really was able to rest my brain in always today, it was very hard to get my brain going. So I didn't really do much decided to kind of take the day off as well my basically had a weekend off which was pretty spectacular. And just, just children and watched them film with Graham page with the kids, and particularly Amina, and then finished off watching magnificent two or whatever it's called. with Mina though I'm very much feeling like I want to watch something that's a little bit more charged, let's say, a little bit deeper than those films that maybe I'll watch something tonight. But um, yesterday I, apart from launching the sky experience I also soft launched a new idea, which is the, the daily noodle. And this is where basically just jamming on the guitar for about three or four minutes, two or three minutes, something like that, and recording it, and then putting up every day on Instagram TV igtv, and also YouTube, and it's a real simple idea. I figured that having the pressure of needing to put a video up each day of me playing guitar might be singing as well. Am I not it's totally open might help me to focus on one one it will make me play every day, which currently is very easy for me to slip into weeks where I haven't picked up a guitar. So I want to you know get back to playing guitar every day. So that I'm back to kind of focusing on music every day, more or less, and to hopefully are kind of thing are this is getting a bit dull. People don't want to hear me do the same thing every day depending on what I'm doing. I better increase and, you know, improve my technique. So perhaps it will also force me to, you know, to work on new things and try new things, which goes alongside the study I've been doing on music theory recently and I'm trying to open up my, my brain and therefore open up my skills and understanding and open up my guitar play, so we'll see if that works but if you want to hear just go to Instagram TV igtv guests at Romeo Crow, I'm not very ofay with igtv, or just go to my YouTube channel and you'll be able to watch the first two episodes because I managed the second one today oh and the other thing is, I'm going to try and do them all outside, no matter what the weather, no matter what time of the year. The idea being that, then they kind of fall in with us travelling, even if it's just a day out but as and when we're travelling more, you know we're visiting nice places so it gives me an excuse to basically bring a guitar with me and jam in nice places. So we'll see how that pans out so that's that's that. The other thing is having the day off I'm trying to, you know, open my brain a bit creatively to new ideas or concepts, and one of them which keeps coming back and then I made a connection today which I was quite pleased with is every time I go to look for a film that is basically like India. Jones. The only thing that comes up is the mummy, realistically, and I love the mummy as well so every time I look for film like the mummy, basically nothing new or nothing interesting comes up, and I keep thinking. It can't be that difficult to, to come up with this story you know or a series of adventure stories in the classic kind of adventure style you know the live action films and there's a lot of films that are called Action, Adventure, but they're not really adventurous in the sense of like Indiana Jones was or not you know they really I mean obviously one contrast right Indiana Jones, but I really want a series of adventure films and adventure stories that are really fun to watch fun to watch as a family as well. And I you know they've got certain criteria to the
