While Chris was entertaining our beans at my parents, I was putting violin practice to good use. 20 years ago [my god that long ago - i must have been about 4 LOL] with my mum and some of her friends and colleagues we set up a small chamber orchestra, which grew into a symphony orchestra [Wycombe Sinfonia]. This weekend was its birthday concert, so i went back to play again. Mum and sister also playing with dad proud in audience!! It was great fun, I wasn’t as crap as feared, and I will def join an amateur orchestra when we move.
I had no mothers day this year. reading sarahs blog though, i asked SB what she loved about me – my voice and my happy cheeks apparently. On pushing for something else, she decided I was a good tickler!
Lots of socialising and on-the-hoof ed. Some leap pad and jump ahead maths. Fri was a lot of painting, our friday treat of popcorn making and domestic skills [LOL]
Manic week ahead, and may try and sort out a viking type costume for wed home ed group.
Aawww to the what SB loves best about you. xx
Didn’t realise you were a local gal. Well localish. I was brought up in Windsor.
Well done you for getting back into the orchestra. Your Dad must have been beaming ;0)
