Two of our most popular forumites take Diplomas during next week, KatyJay , FLCM in singing and Barry, a DipABRSM on the clarinet.
Whilst they have been running their own threads on preparation for these, I think it's appropriate to start a separate thread so we can wish them both
So please join me and add your good wishes for both of them.
KatyJay is at 1pm Thursday, and Barry's 9.30 on Friday morning.

(if there re any other Diploma takers this week, good luck to you also)

Thank you very much, fsharpminor.

One slight amendment to your first post, though. Barry's exam is ATCL, not DipABRSM.

But in any case I wish him, and any other diploma-takers this season, the very best of luck.

Good luck to you both, hope you get the success you deserve!

Oops yes I did know that, must have been a senior moment !

Ooh yes. Good luck to you both.

Good luck, you both! My fingers are crossed for you.

All the very best to both of you.

Wishing you both every success for your exams next week

The very best of luck to both of you for next week, I'm sure you will both wow your respective examiners xx

Thanks everyone, and katyjay, all the best

All the very best to you both.Come on KJ,YOU CAN DO IT!

The very best of luck to you both!

I'm sure neither of you needs luck, as you've been preparing for the diplomas so well for so long. I hope you both achieve the fine marks you so deserve.

Relax and enjoy! (How often do you have a captive audience for 40 minutes? )

Very best wishes to you both

I know how hard you've both worked for these, best of luck katyjay and barry-clari

Good luck!

Best wishes and good luck to you both in your recitals.

Go for it, guys! I'm rather envious - I wouldn't have the nerve to do it myself.

Thank you everyone

Good luck both of you

Yes - good luck - hope they go well

Good luck to both of you!!! The work you put in deserves a good result.

Good luck to both of you, hope it goes really well.

Lots of luck to you both!

Best of luck to you both.

And remember, when it's over, eat LOTS of chocolate...

Thanks C. Am beginning to think that this 'chocolate' people speak so highly of has healing properties...

Oh, it DOES, Baz, it DOES!!

Good luck to both of you!

Hope you both do fabulously!

Good luck to you both! Glad to hear the room issue is sorted for Katyjay. Hope you both enjoy it!

Very VERY Good Luck to you both

Good Luck Katyjay and Barry Clari. I am sending you my very best wishes and I know that both of you will be fabulous.

Definitely all the best to both of you and hope everything goes smoothly.

Good luck to you both on Friday.

Good luck again, plus the same to at least one other forumite diplomaring today.

Thanks to everyone for the good luck wishes.


My own good luck wishes are to all the other diploma-takers this term - including mel2, sioni and anyone else

Oops I hadn't realised mel2 had one his week, please remind me what it was
So we have KaytJay on Thursday, Barry on Friday, Sione on Saturday , + mel2 (?).
Any others I've missed?

Many thanks katyjay and fsm; I'm relieved to say my LTCL recital was last week, on Friday, so I can relax a bit now.

I have been very cowardly keeping a low profile in case it all goes/went horribly wrong. Should know in 2-3 weeks, according to the administrator in Leeds.

Good wishes still flowing in the direction of other diploma- takers.

Well done Mel.. Was it on the organ?

Good luck to all diploma takers!

I wish! No - it was piano; next challenge should be grade 8 organ (bet the dratted syllabus has changed).

Best of luck to all diploma takers - hope the weather behaves itself!

Good luck to all.

I did my ATCL on Wednesday - so glad it's over!!

Good luck for the result : and thank you for all your support, too : very pleased to have made your acquaintance this year

I am not looking forward to the results!
See you at the Jan concert

Will do!
