It hasn't yet happened, but my Dad is coming home from a business trip in a few hours. (he has only been away a few days, and only popped across to Dublin) It means he will cook some yummy meal for me later! biggrin.gif

I've just found a photo on facebook from the trip away I had to miss, (because I tripped over something I knew was there and busted my knee,) where they're all lying on the floor holding their knees and laughing laugh.gif
It made me smile that they had thought about me not being there, and nobody had mentioned it to me, they just left it in the folder and waited for me to find it biggrin.gif

It was nice, I was just browsing through the hundreds of photos feeling sorry for myself because I ended up not being able to go, and then had to do a double take on one...it suddenly dawned on me what they'd done and it was really touching, they all look like they're having a fantastic time, and ripping it out of me for tripping over a ramp I've known for years was there, and they're all just lying around it laughing their heads off pretending to be in pain and holding their knees! biggrin.gif hehehe, I did get to be a part of the trip (pun intended laugh.gif) after all biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

An evening at my favourite pub where i've seen my friend who has been seriously ill - he spent a month in intensive care on life support, he is looking and feeling better than when i saw him on Friday... so thats made me happy smile.gif. We asked him if he was taking it easy still, his response was 'i'm more like the conductor of an orchestra, i wave my arms and tell them what to do' tongue.gif

That and plans to have my cousin who is 2 for the day tomorrow, he's been really funny today apparently repeating everything people say so it'll be fun. tongue.gif

Three weeks into the summer holiday and I look round my study. I find that I have at last caught up on almost all the backlog of work so almost anything I do now is for the future and not the past. An enormous relief. Nervous breakdown no longer looming!

I think I've passed my bassoon exam. smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif

The examiner was really friendly. It was only after the exam that I noticed a sheet saying 'your examiner today will be Mr X'. I recognised the name - he examined me for Grade 4 piano 2 years ago! laugh.gif I remember talking to one of my friends about what a nice examiner he was. biggrin.gif

I doubt it, but its generally not considered acceptable to mention the names of specific examiners on the forums. It starts off okay, but sooner or later can decend into a discussion of their meaness in awarding marks, quirks etc.
