In the words of the great Flanders and Swann.....
I found my horn...

From age 11 - 18 I played the French horn. This is an understatement as it was something of an obsession. when not in school i would practice for at least three hours a day. I reached grade 6 standard and played in orchestras and things all over the place. then after that the drama took over and the horn languished in its for nearly twenty four years.

AND NOW IT IS BACK!!!!! inspired by a book that Mum bought me for my birthday I have it all fixed up and have started playing again!!! I am in good company. amongst the other lapsed horn players in the book is Ewan McGregor. I have been listening to Dennis Brain practising out of my Tune a Day, which apparently Mr McGregor also used!

So there yare now. What do yiz think of that?

You'll no longer be feeling sad and so forlorn, then?
