So, it appears I am now in a band. I did this audition and they were really happy with the way I sang and everything, which I am a bit suprised at because I didn't think I did that well. I suppose it helps that I know the drummer (he is a guitarist friend of mine) and that none of the rest of the band think they have good enough voices or want to sing, but hey I'm not knocking the fact that I seem to be a singer once again (if I ever was one before that is). So I sang some good classic rock songs, and a couple of Def Leppard numbers, and really enjoyed myself. They have some of their own songs that they've been working on as well which don't sound bad but need a bit of polishing up, so all in all it could be good fun. The band are called MLC, at the moment (it stands for Mid Life Crisis) but I don't know if that will be the final name or not. Anyway I'll try to keep anyone who's interested posted as to our progression.
On the home front, we are all gradually getting better but we still have sore throats, coughing and stuff going on within the house, although nowhere near as bad as it has been.
I'm going to finish with a little comment on something I heard earlier tonight on Newsnight. They were asking if this country still has a 'Rolls Royce' Civil Service. I think that firstly it really depends if you thought we ever had one to start with, but the thing that I thought straight away was 'Why do we need one when we've got a Ford Cortina Government and a Reliant Robin society?'
See ya!

And it is something to look forward to especially if you enjoy it
