It may be a publicity stunt but its a good one.

Was wondering if your 'happy' would be something to do with your lip...

I'm happy improving away on 2nd. Though sometimes I wonder at the logic of keeping two people on first with erratic attendance.
Very occasionally I get to play first when all three are missing at rehearsal.

Got my holiday booked (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) - at a time I can manage and a price we can afford - though we will have to keep searching to find cheap enough travel to get there.

Going to Orkney. Don't want to drive there (not from Cambridge! though we'll probably hire a car in Kirkwall) and OH can't travel long distances by coach for the same reason he can't fly - too prone to DVTs. So it has to be a train. As we're staying in St Margaret's Hope on South Ronaldsay, there's a nice ferry from Gills near Thurso, but the timing means that we have to get on the train the day before and sleep on it.

Still, I have a little over four months to grab a bargain ticket.

(I've been to Orkney before, on my own, and started a cold as soon as I got there. I remember I was absolutely gagging to go to Skara Brae, and when I got there it was a grey miserable day amd I was feeling lousy, and I felt - nothing. So I'll have another chance. I was also told last time that I'd missed the puffins by about two weeks)

I have maybe overstated my achievement - I should have added that this is only the training band and there are at least 5 players on each of 1st, 2nd and 3rd parts!! My aspiration is eventually to make it to the Senior Concert Band, but this is at least a start!

Congratulations (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I've recently moved up to 1st at my training band too, difference is, we only have 2 on 1st, 1 on 2nd and 1 on 3rd (when everyone turns in).

Happy tootling, and good luck with moving into the senior band (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
