Dull dull dull

Flute and harp, tuna and sweetcorn: Combinations that are guaranteed to
flatten the happiest of moods. The flute and harp concerto tonight was
livened only by the fistfuls of wrong notes from the harp.

Silly thing.

I know it's late but I found this funny.

Multibabel translated 'My living room will look better once it is painted, I presume.' as 'My alive section looks like that it improves a time, of that one the one that it estimates paints him.'

We should all talk like this.

Bush is a moron

Well, it's not news, but it's true. Here's a great article about Bush attempting to defy the facts and generally being a moron.

Round the corner, not far away, Jamie's had a lovely day.

Blimey! The day I have been dreading for a couple of months turned out to be one of the most enjoyable for ages. Two days of potential hell recording Elgar's Music Makers and Sea Pictures has turned out to be one of the few recordings that I am proud to have been part of, and will certainly buy when it comes out. The soloist, Sarah Connelly has got a fantastic voice and was amazingly easy going for a singer. She had the obligatory scarf and bottle of water, but lacked the traditional superior attitude that singers generally have.
I've also managed to bunk off the last two New Years concerts so I can go to Lisbon to have a coporate jolly with the Opera Babes. Marvellous.
