sounds good to me, Lord Byron.
A friend sent me this link http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2637635365191428174. I think it is good, though I could feel the pressure in America without seeing this.

Hello Lord Byron, my good fellow. I hope you enjoy Handel tomorrow.

I'll be pottering about in my garden, weather permitting, although I think I might be a bit stressy, as while I was away in London the soon -to- be- ex-husband moved back into the house....curiouser and curiouser.   Huh  Huh  Huh  Huh  Shocked  Shocked  Shocked


Could you all please arrive waffle-mob-handed to evict him, so's I can get on with grieving for my plants...?  Cry Springtime is so magic in the garden, innit?  Smiley

We will mob-handedly evict him. There is no need to greeve too much. Things still can get much better. Spring is a time of celebrating life. Put your mine at ease, Janthefan, and know inside that a good future is in store for you.  Wink

Ho Jan,

I was just thinking about you ... honest! and wondering how you are. I suppose it was looking at the dffodils and just starting bluebells that made me think about you and your garden.
Is all ok... apart from soon-to-be-ex coming back?

Well, if he was a sensible and nice chap he would not be the 'soon to be ex' would he ?

Thanks everyone for your good wishes and your thoughts.
This week has turned into a major nightmare...I should probably be in the grumpy old rant room, but never mind.

The poor soon-to-be-ex is, sadly so mentally all over the place that he doesn't know what he wants, and it seems to be changing almost hourly....so I dont know if I'm on my @ss or my elbow.

I just wish I felt I had some power over the situation....and that the psychiatrist would stop being charmed by him, and stick him somewhere safe , not tell him to come home to me !!
(This is the same psych who told him he wouldn't be happy until he got away from me).

Luckily I do have the love of an honourable, darling man, who is there for me whatever twist the plot takes...  Kiss

Unluckily my solicitor, who is sweet, and doesn't mind me weeping all over her, is a complete wimp !  I may need a bully instead.

indeed, strong legal eagle

I find not getting married has made the divorces easier.

Ho Jan.  Change solicitors and go for the hardest one you can find.  That's in case it comes down near to a case of survival.  Sorry to sound a bit grim.
Cheers

Anyone hear him on Feedback today? He could at least have mentioned the name of this board instead of telling people to google for Choral Evensong.

He actually said "maybe there have been some mistakes made"!  Wink

click here to download Roger Rabbit on Feedback part2.mp3

Update 17/3: I've corrected this link, so if you tried it before and found it didn't work, it should be OK now.

 am accompanying a viola player at the moment. She has her exam in Cork soon (22 March). It is MA degree she is doing. The programme is difficult (Bach sonata G minor, Schuber Arpeggione, Enescu Concert piece). Viola player is very good. She plays fast movements much better than slow. She took a few master classes with really good viola players, but now she has doubts how to play pieces and does not play with the same commitment.
She also is trying to avoid putting all her eggs in one basket and is doing Teaching dip (or something like that), taking too many classes, works in school. As a result she doesn't practise at least 3 hours everyday. She is really a good viola player and could be better. Her teacher is planning to come from Cork to listen to us.

This project occupies me now. I don't play publically often. I hope it will go well enough and viola player will not kill me.

Tell me about yourself, MabelJane. How is your daughter? Are you doing anything with music?

tp,

Have you ever accompanied the Brahms sonatas for viola (the ones that were originally written for clarinet)? I was reading about a new recording of them in The Guardian today. I knew someone who played the viola once and he said they were difficult, what with the extra notes put in from the original version to exploits the viola's four strings.
