Staying in! I'll do some practice, a bit of work (for the day job, and on the Northern Ireland finale, and the Leeds clari piece), and a bit of rest...
The last 1000 words of my English coursework.
The weather isn't too bad here for once.

Going to a recital at 3pm - before that I need to get some more ink cartridges for the printer so that I can print out some 'thank you' cards. And - of course - that dreaded talk
Good thing about my profession is that I can dull the senses by sticking in lots of facts and figures - and they still won't know what I'm on about!
Well done on Oliver!
Thanks Looney..enjoy your recital! I'm sure your talk will be ...er...rivetting!
Are you feeling any better, Floss?
Can I have a grade zero part for these finales, please Barry?
Have a good day everyone. I'm off to do some work now. (After I've made a cup of tea of course!)
See you all later.

You just got drawn back because the forum has been particularly clarinetty this weekend!
It has I know! And I've had computer problems, and of course forums are the first thing that comes up whenever I go onto the internet to find solutions....
Is anyone around?
Please excuse the selfishness of this post but after almost a month of forgetting what 'having a life' is... I have finished the first draft my English dissertation!

Sounds good. I think I'm going to have a (very!) early night. Enjoy the rest of the evening.

Any advice on how to get rid of a sore throat/chesty cough? I have been quite ill over the last couple of days and though I can keep doing everyday things, my voice has almost gone... and I have a singing exam on Wednesday! I don't know how to help get my voice back in time. I am not singing and trying to avoid talking as it hurts. Heavy lifting hurts too!
I would be very grateful if anyone had any wonderful suggestions.

Hi Sarah! How are things?
Sorry Randommoose, no miracle cures for sore throats I'm afraid - though a colleague of mine swears by gargling with salt water (sounds more like a recipe for making you sick to me!) if you fancy trying it. I think they just go away when they're ready. Don't try singing on it, whatever you do! Personally I find Vic rubbed on my chest at night helps coughs, but not everyone likes it.

Hi berkshiremum,
Things aren't too bad, except i just remembered its the chemistry mock tomorrow
So some speedy revision is needed!
Hoe are you?
How about hot honey and lemon? there's something along those lines anyway

Good luck for tomorrow, Sarah! Do you like Chemistry? My son started A-levels expecting to enjoy Physics more, but has ended up really enjoying the Salters Chemistry course. Still, no-one really likes mocks, do they?!
Chemistry's my second favourite subject, although it was the one i was thinking 'now why did i choose this?' at the beginning of september. I also thought i'd prefer physics, because its meant to be a lot more mathsy, but then i found out that our course was chosen because it was particularly unmathsy

Very hard!
How are you?
Fine thanks. You? Have you had a good w/e?
I've had a very good weekend. Have somehow managed to do about 13 hours of piano over the two days so i'm not feeling quite as doomed any more.
Only drawback of that is i completely forgot about revision

So, what else is coming up this week?
as you've probably gathered, there's a chemistry mock tomorrow, then chemistry practical competition on weds afternoon. I think that's all thats out of the ordinary. I also have what's probably the last piano lesson before my exam

Yep, I managed to work that out, thank you!
We had a funny chemistry teacher for GCSE (I didn't do A level chemistry; chemistry was probably my least favourite subject at GCSE). He was rather elderly, and was the sort of typical absent-minded professor, who taught totally above our level and didn't seem really aware of where he was, nor of what he was doing. The lab technician - also rather elderly - (I'll call her Mrs. W) and he loathed each other. She used to say to us before lessons (as he was always invariably late, and would sometimes forget that he was meant to be teaching us) "You've got to remind the old fool he's teaching GCSE and not A level".
Without fail, every experiment he demonstrated went wrong. We'd end up with acid everywhere, broken glass everywhere, an explosion or a fire. Sometimes a combination. And whenever it went wrong, he'd blame Mrs W. for setting it up incorrectly. Of course, it wasn't her fault. He'd sit there at his desk shouting like a child until she appeared from out of the store room to clean things up, or to get a fire extinguisher. I remember one occasion he set fire to a desk, and he shouted out "Mrs. W! Mrs. W! I say! I say! Mrs. W! Mrs. W! Will you or will you not extinguish this fire, Mrs. W?"
A couple of years later, after we'd finished A levels, I understand that he managed to set fire to a classroom which spread and caused damage to several rooms. I believe it was then suggested to him that he retire.
he sounds somewhere in between awful and hilarious.
He was both!
What are your teachers like?

Our maths teacher is crazy lol. He spends half his time waving his arms around madly
Apart from that they'r pretty bog standard normal.

Is it the effect your class has on him, I wonder?
quite possibly
he also says things like 'if you do elephant to the power of giraffe, then you get...?'

its so tempting to shout out TIGER!! You dont happen to know how to cure a double jointed thumb, do you?
I can't believe i've gone for 17 years and not realised there was something wrong with it
That's interesting about your thumb.
I was told years ago that I'm double-jointed, but I don't know what it means!
My thumbs lock straight from time to time, and I have to click them quite hard sometimes to get them to bend. All of a sudden the joint will bend with a loud clicking sound.
What symptoms do you get?

I've always had one double jointed (locking up like your thumbs) finger. Since playing the piano more (especially octaves), the other 3 left hand fingers have started doing this too, but thats not really too much of a problem - its actually quite helpful to have a little finger that locks to the right shape for octaves
I've only just noticed my thumb in the last couple of days. The joint at the base of my left thumb bends inwards (pretty hard to explain exactly) . This is a bit of a pain as it keeps collapsing inwards when i'm trying to play pinched notes on the recorder.

Well, don't play pinched notes on your recorder, then!
I'm off to bed now. Sleep well Sarah, and don't go to bed too late!
Night night xx
