Brief



Please allow me to give you my interpretation of Ironic.





A couple of weeks ago, I was asked to play with a Band I had never played with before, who were doing a Concert for the charity Help for Heroes.


I was told I would receive expenses of £20. Being ex forces, I turned this down asking instead for it to be donated to the charity.


As you may remember, on the night, not one single person supported the Concert and after an hour we packed up and went home (separately, not together).


Last night I received a n e mail from the organiser, thanking me for my time and donation.


He also enclosed a total fund donated to the charity,


£20!!!!!!


I could have sent it in an envelope and stayed at home!


Have done an Horse Drawn Funeral today. One of the stable lads was saving hard to watch the Grand Prix live in Abu Dabi (or somewhere) and it would cost a couple of grand?


I suddenly thought, that depending how many laps the cars took, lets say 48, then he would only see the cars 48 times and only for a couple of seconds as they whizzed round past him.


He probably would not even be near the finishing line? Expensive couple of minutes that!



Very shocked last night to hear of a fellow musicians marriage breakdown. You could not meet a nicer bloke and on this occasion I am being biased.



Went out for a meal before playing last night.


I like to try new foods and have eaten Shark and Horse etc.


Last night I tried pelican.

It was ok, but when I went to pay, the bill was huge!
