Submitted 4 more albums yesterday, but spent much of the day repairing the TV aerial. The signal had started to fail, and the cable at the connector was clearly frayed and rusted. I unscrewed it and it was very damp, and when I cut the cable, lots of water dripped out! The inner casing is hollow, so it appears that rain water is somehow getting inside. This created a conundrum. We can't really replace the (ancient) cable easily, although a new aerial is always possible. Ideally I'l water-proof it. My first attempt was to inject some resin into the hollow cable with a syringe, but this repeately oozed out as it dried. In the end, I filled the end with blu-tak, which made a water tight plug. Then, bought a new connector and fitted that. It's much better than before.
Spent today painting 'Masochistic Gaia Toying With Humanity'. I seem to be better and faster than ever at painting. The plan hope for this unusual piece is to enter into the Discerning Eye exhibition; chosen not for the idea but for its size as that exhibition has a strict size limit.
