Here is a kimono with flowers (one can combine both) and a beautiful woman is wearing it.

I am considering buying it now.


And beautiful it looks t-p! But let me spare your modesty: you don't really NEED it do you?

Baziron, this is indeed too flashy for me. How about you? Would you wear something like that say for Shostakovich room? Or perhaps to help Tommo in musical connection? It is very inspired look.

Most piano teachers are awful. It is something women do to suppliment their husband income while looking after a baby or two. I met a few young and beautiful and a few agly onces.

Our Latin teacher wore the most appalling grey, lose-the-will-to-live cardigans. She was also an organist, which upset me even more than her lessons.  Even as a kid I  lovedthe organ, but she played it with about as much enthusiasm as her near-to-death cardies. I`m sure there is a sad story behind it all.

I feel like a grumpa and a rant. Sorry, I know it's late, but you lot are going to get it anyway.

I have sweated BLOOD trying to get the students I teach to maintain a reasonable level of commitment to their work over the last 6 or so months. Have they? Have they billio. Now, with a mere three wekks to go before they have to hand their work in, they are battering my door down, demanding attention and entirely unreasonable amounts of last-minute help. I spent the last two days dealing with this, in unscheduled time. And, believe me, it will continue for the nest few weeks! Grrr! Aaaaargh! Young people! T'was ever thus?



Martle,

Just seen your grump from last night. You can`t give the little buglers detention but how about .....

May be this will be to Matrle's taste? Or he can change them from day to day.

I was happy all day. But now I am grumpy.
Somebody has a living Certificate tomorrow and the accompanist let them down (got sick). The exam is in 1 hour drive. That will involve driving back for 1 hour (assuming I will not get lost because I passed driving test two months ago.

I was looking forward to cleaning the house and pricticing before students come (I only had two).
But I now I am going to start at 10 in the morning my driving. Then I have to sight read the pieces and try to calm down the poor girl who is playing the flute.

I am was looking forward to trying to relax my wrists, imagine that my hands are made of rubber etc.
Last Wed there was similar story only closer (15 min). One can not plan anything in this life. You think you will be practicing and the house will be clean, but the fate decides differently.

This reminds me Mort of when I first started teaching about 90 years ago, I taught one boy who was third year sixth ( trying for Oxford... remember those days?!) well I taught him in a 'Radio Active stock room' - the physics teacher would remove the 'little box' and we would have an A level music lesson!!

 I am fine apart from the occasional unexpected light that appears when I grin !!!

Grumpy rant of the day.  I'm so disappointed!  Went to give a pint of blood for the first time and they won't have me.  Sad

I wouldn't mind but I'd filled in the questionnaire that I haven't got all the dreadful diseases that kill people, like hepatitis and HIV etc.,  - and the reason they won't take me is because of.....migraines!  I was stunned at first, but nice nursey explained that because migraines are a vascular problem, taking a pint might alter the blood flow to the brain and make me really ill.  She said "Now we don't want to be calling an ambulance do we?  We must first of all keep you safe."  With that I was offered consolation tea and biscuits and that was it.
