Thinking about the fact I have a piano lesson this week (YAY) got me wondering -
How far do you travel? How did you pick your teacher? |

I suppose another question we could ask is how much it costs you to get your lesson, especially with people flying from Scotland and travelling such long distances.

QUOTE(PianoNotes @ Feb 11 2012, 05:19 PM)  I suppose another question we could ask is how much it costs you to get your lesson, especially with people flying from Scotland and travelling such long distances. About 120 calories (1 mile there, 1 mile back, at about 60 calories a mile). And apparently this is what 120 calories looks like: http://www.fitsugar.com/What-120-Calories-Looks-Like-454335 |
