    Butti, braver than me

    Thanks for the music suggestion Bun - very funny but it's in my head now. Can't find the appointment card now.

    Have had a 3/4 hour chat with the man which has calmed me down somewhat, so things are good.

    Will catch up with you all tomorrow when I'm back.
    Thanks for all the kind wishes

    I'm back from my drum lesson, which went well. I tried playing along to a song, didn't do too well, but it's something to work towards. He keeps mentioning his other students and it suddenly occurred to me that I've been seriously into music longer than most of them have been alive... but there are good points to learning as an adult.

    Buttering up of sister went well, she's going to let me buy her muters. I have to take care of them though because they were her 21st birthday present. I need to call round for a chat and scout round to see what else she's getting rid of. Had a nice meal but I threw half of it back up. I really need to get out of the mindset of 'you shouldn't leave food on your plate'.

    Elfen, enjoy Ikea. You do realise it's almost impossible to come out of there without candles!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
