Nay, but seriously folks...
Here's a tip for practising. Don't practise playing mistakes, practise getting it right.
Sometimes, when we've made mistakes many times in our practice, we get it right once or twice and then we stop. Okay, think about it, you 'practised' getting it wrong countless times and then you got it right once, so you play it one more time and then you bugger off to write a post, or drink a Cleanskin, or have dinner, or play on your phone.
76 times wrong - 2 times right.
It's not exactly rocket science!
The trick is to practise it more times the right way.
No need for thanks, though a comment can be nice, except when it's from some know all.
Ciao tutti.

This post is crap.
- A well-known know all.
I agree with that first guy.
And there weren't even any devil buses in it.
Sheesh!
Bollocks!
- A critic.
If that's one of the bollocks then the prick must be huge!
- Another critic.
Any sincere Christians would be praying that the weather improves up in Whangarei.
Yeah, sheesh alright!
Great blog. I am aware of the psychology of practicing slowly and correctly as this trains the "subconscious computer"; but it is always good to be reminded of the merit of this technique. Darn! Now I sound like a know all.
Yes, slow practice is very important but not what I was talking about.
Maybe Robert's new friend Jimmy Atkins was talking about it
But I never talked about slow practice. It's like you miming to a ukulele tune and me commenting about miming with a trumpet.
Go and work on that first variation in Caprice 24. Remember not to practise mistakes. Listen carefully at the service in a couple of weeks - I might throw it in as an intro to an Am bossa I intend to play.
I'd ask Jesus on Sunday if I were you - after all, he'll be inside you giving you excitement.
