Thinking
I might add something different to tonight's Clap I dug out my concertina (not
been out for ages)
"Put
That Back" commanded Ferretfingers
So I took
it out into the garden.
Felix
scarpered.
Teddy
came through the fence from next door, back up, xmas tree tail, and shot out
through the garden gate.
I went up
the garden and had a little twiddle sitting under the bower.
Felix
come up, goes behind the garage and starts mewling and spraying the compost
heap, and then settles down.
Teddy,
consumed by curiosity - "What the hell is she doing now, and where is that
infernal noise coming from?" - slinks back up the garden and settles down
near frogpond 2.
Sadly, as
I can only play Jimmy Allan, Davy Davy Knick Knack and Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau all
slowy and extremely badly, I'm afraid it's just going to be the saucepan and
whistle tonight.
The Squireen
Jeffrey doesn’t like the concertina or the tenor recorder , he is ok
with the descant recorder.
Drummerman
“Little Twiddle under the bower” sounds like George Formby or DylanThomas...
Sandy Borrowing your concertina along with a generous loan from Fat Steve of
his three row G/D was what got me started Ta
Bentonbag Don't blame me!
Paganess Need to spend more time in the bower practicing!
Miss Doozer
I need more of Bentonbag's accordion in my life. The boys are just going
to have to put up.
Miss Doozer
I stand corrected
Tylebach Record yourself I want to see you play xxx
Bentonbag Seeing it is definitely preferable to hearing it.
DM We're ready!
Mrs Quilt I didn't know you played
concertina. Steal time for yourself and play it. Call it musical research,
Practice sounds dispensable.
Bentonbag I have a concertina (inherited from my Granma). 'Play' is a generous
term - I pick out a few tunes badly - practice seems to make things worse and,
to be honest, I'd always rather knit or crochet because then I've something to
show for my time and effort.
