Aww what a beauty! I know two female cats who are both white with ginger patches. Apparently, you can get all-ginger female cats, but it is uncommon. Similarly, tortoiseshell cats are usually female - males with that colouring are less common that females. Though neither is rare, just less common. And these have grown in to the myths that ginger cats can only be boys, and torties can only be girls.

I went to the new Tesco's that's just opened on the Market Place where Woolworths used to be. It is so huge. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) I felt a bit like a child in a sweet shop and have bought lots of lovely food that I haven't had for ages (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) - things like Rye bread, salami, flavoured couscous and frozen potato croquets. The kind of stuff which Iceland (which has been our 'main' supermarket for ages) and the greengrocer's and butcher's don't sell. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
I'll probably still get veg from the grocers on N Road, and will use the butcher's in the indoor market when possible, but it is so nice to have a supermarket again (even if it is a tescos). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/party1.gif) Don't know how well the supermarket will do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (we went through Safeway's, Morrisons and Waitrose in just under 4 years and then ended up with no-one apart from the little Iceland and Spar on N Road and a very small and expensive tesco express) but it will be nice not to spend half a day going round different shops to fet food each week.

I managed to play the low notes that I can't normally play on the saxophone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I normally can't get anything lower than D, but I managed down to B. I think I'm improving. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

An organist friend who was at my church this morning: "You played beautifully and made that organ sound better than it is." (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif)
It meant a lot to me because this friend certainly does_not give praise away lavishly, and it's quite a while since another organist heard me play and had anything positive to say! |

Playing moosic with Alpha Male Jazz Cat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) HORRORS I was FORCED (well, coerced) into playing piano duets (FEAR) but didn't do a bad job muddling through some Bach (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) and Handel flute stuff. I also massaged his paws with some super-duper Molton Brown potion....simple things....

I am happy becuase my violin teacher has returned to london so he is able to teach me. He has been away for a month so I am glad to actually get a lesson soon.
