I just did a quick mental calculation and to my surprise found that I have actually been bangin around for forty six years and not the youthful forty five mentioned on my profile

did I lose a year or gain some mathematical skill?

answers on a post card

where does all the time go?

It drives me nuts

I've taken the week off work and its tuesday already.

there is so much to do and learn and every time I look at the clock another day has sliped by.

I feel like I'm going to explode.

I was listening to this

 

 

and realised that my violin may be a little out of tune.

Couple of years ago Marie bought me a violin (Marie's always buying me noisy things so she can complain about the noise).

a gave it a bit of a go but whenever I got it out of the case it needed tuning which takes forever.

anyway its been sat in the corner of the room for ages (couple of years) so I got it out of the case, tuned it, learnt a few slick moves with my elbow and then............breakthrough,   I left it out.

next day I didn't have to tune it, picked it up, banged out a blazing rendition of "home boys home" and left it out again.

Marie said it makes your ears bleed.

Marie has a tongue as sharp as a razor.

bless her

So I'm going to learn the violin now, sometimes through the screeching it will make a pleasant sound.

I'm off to have a practice.

I know that this is old hat now but I just watched this to remind myself of what a bunch of selfish bastards are in charge of our world

 

   

 

I'm not going to leave this here long because it annoys me
