Caroline,
Go on tell us all why SHE doesn't like you............hehehehehehehhe!!
For the same reasons that she's not too fond of Sue Milan or Jenny
Stinton!
Well it is always good to learn a new piece.....as long as you do not
use it to gain more technique..............??
No, I'm a good girl these days, I do my finger waggling elsewhere. Got
that from when a previous teacher decided it would be a good idea for me
to develop my technique by playing Tulou and Boehm. It was a depressing
experience, whereas if I'd had the technique nearly there it would have
been much more musical!
Do your practical tech vocab learning away from pieces.
Practise the odd little quirks and turns as tech "cells" but ALWAYS have
an idea of how you want it to sound in your head. I mean to say..(the cook
writes again<<GG>>.).when I am putting together Pollo Cacciatora..well
I am thinking of the eventual taste...not chopping garlic and onions etc.
I tend to do the strange experimental cooking bit these days. The other
night I fancied something on toast and ended up with butter, garlic,
mince, onion and melted cheese over the top. It was surprisingly nice.
Howsabout me coming down to Cambridge and us Lot<<gg>> having a fun
weekend..and a few free lessons...nearer to the exam.........sounds like
FUN!!!!
Ummmm well, I was actually going to email you nearer the time and ask if
I could come up to you for some lessons, so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK
YOU!! <very big hug> We live right opposite a pub, you'll love it!
Although I may have moved again by then as I saw a cracking job in the
Times today - Anderson Consulting are creating a "Flying Corps" of
secretaries to travel round London providing admin support to whichever
team of consultants need them. The qualifications required are 5 GCSEs
including English & Maths and a recognised secretarial qualification,
both of which I have. Starting salary between 16,000 and 25,000,
depending on experience. Tempting.......
Womble on speed.......HUH!!
You liked it when Paul first thought it up, I still have the post
somewhere if you don't believe me!

When were you thinking of retiring? <GGG>
Seriously, if they turn out as good as I think they might, it will be
worth
waiting for, but I wouldn't count on any specific date. I can't imagine
Nick would abandon all his side lines.
I think I'm going to go for it then, I just can't afford to pay for one
in the next two years, but I think I should be fairly safe!!! I'm going
to try and get the one before WIBB, which will also give Nick a practise
run at open G#. (Someone's already down for the one after WIBB!) Are
you going to be doing the padding?
Our next door neighbour has gone to France for a week and has lent Paul
"Everybodys' Golf" for the Playstation. I was awake until 3am this
morning because all I could hear coming from the downstairs room was
"Sod, bogeyed it again!!!!!" (OK, I was up until 1:30 myself playing
it, it's incredibly addictive!)
I smell supper.....
