Rugby

Spent most of the afternoon dog sitting/walking and snoozing on the sofa?? How can I be tired after a lay in?? Actually I think I would be better hibernating until Winter is over.
Tonight's Concert was superb. Our Tenor player took to the mic like a duck to water ( I always said he would) and had the audience in the palm of his hand. It's a strange thing human emotion as some would feel sad relinquishing the mic after so long, but I actually feel relieved as it is in very safe hands.
I watched a film this afternoon that reminded me of my childhood. Morcambe and Wise in 'The Riviera Touch' Such simple but gentle humour and a very complicated music score by Ron Goodwin. If you listen carefully you can hear just how technical it is and must have been a b**ger to write? never mind play.
I have to admit to being in a grump tonight as not firing on 4 valves (a bit like Roy the Wallets car) and when I arrived the dep Trombone player said he was full of cold. So I threw a minor hissy fit and sat in a different place. I don't know if it is selfish or not, not wanting to catch a cold? Anyway back to Roy the W's car. I noticed tonight that at the end of the Concert he was shouldering his way past us other musicians tutting and mumbling that we were in the way.Ten minutes later as we were packing kit down, I noticed him still trying to get his car out of the car park. In fact I think most of us were in bed before he got his motor out!!! You se it's the early bird that catches the worm, but the second mouse that gets the cheese????
