Have fun boys, but...

 

I slept in this morning, until nearly 6.40am! I woke to find that, at least in Feilding, I'm a male Karen. Well, it's best to know these things. At least, unlike Ben Sunny, I'm not known for my wind problems.

It is good to see TC being so kind to Ben by celebrating his
success with his wind problems. Don't forget though, TC,
capitals for proper names.

I'll get into some violin practice soon. I have an ex-student (now in his twenties) who wants to play the Bach double violin concerto and he has asked me to play the second violin part. This is not for a concert, he just wants to be able to play it. So he's coming around next weekend. I thought I'd better do some practice on it. This takes me away from what I want to practise (obviously the habits will still get done), but there is probably some benefit in doing it. Anyway, I have nothing else on my performance calendar.

You know what? I think I might have a second coffee this morning! I can, because I am a Richard! Back in a tick. -->

Back.

I don't think I have anything else to tell you but, because I'm a Richard, I'll go on a bit longer.

I saw my grandsons yesterday. Shelley came too and it was especially nice to have Aunty Steph there. Harrison was very pleased to see us all. Henry was a bit rude and slept through our visit. Well, to be fair, he is only coming up to three weeks old. Both boys are doing well, though Harrison is showing signs of going through the 'terrible twos'. He's a lovely little chap and is very at home with his aunty and his grandparents. It is fun and interesting watching him develop. His grammar is already as good as Robert's and Peter's - we're watching him carefully to make sure that he shows improvement and is careful to proofread.

Okay, that's it for this morning.

Ciao tutti.
