Poor you, Kitty. Hope you can repair the damage to piano and house. But please do enlighten me - why oh why would you have a piano in the kitchen in the first place?  Baffled of Cheshire I can't answer that one Mabeljane, but I did have a flat ( I use the term loosely!!) with a bath in the kitchen! My flat mate and I often took it in turns to have a bath while the other made the meal... very friendly!! Well, that's Camden Town for you !!!  A |

Baffled of Cheshire If you saw the layout of the place you would understand. The kitchen is the most accessible room from outside and whoever designed the place clearly didn't imagine that large items of furniture like pianos or double beds would be wanted. |

Sound advice, A! But the longer it is, the longer it takes and the grass-box fills up more quickly... The sun's finally appeared, for the first time today but the lawn's far too soggy. I've still got a mountain of dirty washing to wash, and overflowing baskets of clean washing to sort, not to mention the ironing which never gets done, and work to prepare for tomorrow...grump grump grumpity grump... Actually, posting here about it has made me even grumpier than I was!!!!! |

You are working very hard. I know it is hard and boring, but if you get a little rests then happiness returns.

Hi t-p! I wouldn't have such a back-log of work if I didn't spend time posting here!!!  Are you grumpy too or just keeping me company here? I'll pop in later - but I'll try not to be so grumpy!  There should be a Mrs Grumpy. |

Bryn, Is there Mrs Grumpy?
I am grumpy because I missed CD review yesterday morning. There was a pianist Curzon's CD there.
I am going to listen now.
I am grumpy because I did not have time to listen to many interesting programs on radio 3 lately.
But there is listen again feature and I am going to use it.

 She doesn't look so happy t-p, but I don't think that Hargreaves wrote about a Mrs Grumpy! Hope you are feeling happier ! A |

This weather bodes ill for school sports day on Friday. And on this subject I wish I was younger, fitter and more sports-inclined like the rest of my family. Come the mother's race I wouldn't stand a chance and there isn't a grandma's race because of the obvious risk of fatalities! He wanted me to go in for the mother's race last year but I declined because they're all leggy and young and 6 stones dripping wet...I suppose I could do it and be guaranteed to come last.....? Which would be worse for him do you think? My not doing it or going in for it and coming last? Oh bugler.  |

Millie,
Do they give a handicap, ten yards for every ten years, say? If so, then maybe (but only if you really want to)...on the other hand, ask him whether he'd take part in a sprint against Olympic champions: if he says obviously not, because they're older and fitter, then you might just have a way in, though sadly (like all of us) you'll have to substitute 'younger' for 'older'....
Or else, with all this bad weather, even if the race is on, your knee's going to playing up anyway, isn't it?

Ron Dough has a good solution of giving extra yards for every ten years.
Or may be they need judges and Millie could be used as an expert on photo finishes.
TP's mother was 42 when he was born and he never missed a younger person for his mother. He is well adjusted (mush better than myself who had a young mother).
My theory is that it is much better with more mature parents, but I will agree that it is not true in all cases.
xxxx tp
