If it's a GCSE in Speed-posting, you'll waltz it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Russian in the morning or Music-listening in the afternoon? No, it's not a dance exam (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) yes, it's music in the afternoon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Earlier this afternoon I was invited to invigilate this one tomorrow, but I declined the offer. Firstly, because if they include Heavy-Metal/Garage/ .... actually anything other than Classical and I have to sit/stand through a performance " ... now for the fifth time ..." I'll blow a gasket. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) Secondly, I was advised last year to put my hands in my pockets (which I did) for fear of giving away answers unintentionally - afterwards I calculated that I could have given away nearly 10 marks, had students witnessed me tapping out rhythms, playing air-keyboard or 'conducting', as I'm wont to do! Thirdly, with the date of my Diploma exam received today, suddenly it has become all the more real, so I'm valuing practice-time all the more - after all, I'm invigilating every day next week as it is! Good luck by the way! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Good luck by the way! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) If it's the same exam I'm going, there's four areas of study-the classical/baroque/romantic section, a section on serialism/minimalism/experimental, a third section on Brit Pop and popular music, and then "world music"-so not just classical! And that sounds rather intriguing-I'm sure the students would have regarded that with much hilarity! Thank you, and good luck with your diploma! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Sadly singing at a funeral of a friend :-(
The chaplain of the church of our choir, received an MBE for services to music, and 2 days later sadly had a heartattack, the excitement was too much for him. We have managed to get 30 of the choir at lunch time, so I'm looking forward to it, and then I'm not.... |

Sort out some sewing kit and plant up a pot if the plants have recovered from wilting in the sun.
