So today was bank holiday Monday, the
August Bank Holiday Monday the last few days when we traditionally run off to
the sea making sand castles eating ice cream wearing shorts and sunglasses and
smiling. In reality that was not the case as the weather was predicted to be
not nice, and this morning it was less not nice than we had anticipated making
us all think ooooooooo maybe it will be OK and we can do things outside. Maybe
like run off to the sea making sand castles eating ice cream wearing shorts and
sunglasses and smiling. But before we could seriously consider the options it
started to rain get very grey and become cold and horrible.
It meant I retreated to
the Orange room again to clear some space as my drumming colleague was due to
turn up (he turned up) to drum this evening
As it turned out when we
did start drumming the acoustics were rather interesting. You would think rooms
in a house would generally be the same acoustically but no they differ
immensely. So it appears the orange room will be perfect for guitars but I will
need to experiment with the drums a bit.
We also decided that we would play an African drum version of the
classic song ‘Fanfare to the Common Man in Space’ as our final hooray to Mr
Neil Armstrong…..Although we are not sure what his views on African Drumming
were…
I noticed also on the news
on the wireless that the polar ice sheet has now shrunk to the smallest in
recorded history, although that is only thirty years. But rather than think o
dear poor old polar bear everyone is sending oil expiration vessels, and you
can’t help but wonder if it will all end in tears.
Oooooo and I notice the
Lion running wild in the south of England might be a ginger tom cat, no look I
am sorry but are they all wimps down there how do you mistake a ginger cat and a
lion….
I think in short I am
saying not much happened today…… Maybe I should retire I am running out of
creative stream…….
