    We have been recommended the John Thompson series of piano books, have you used them? What's the long term plan for AF? DH has informed me we are not having wine on Friday. I'm willing to give it a go, will need something fizzy though!

    Amazing with the AF. I'm doing 4 days in a row every week. I'm pleased with myself that I can manage that, so I live in awe of your achievements.

    Actually, I live in awe of you most days!

    Who's the John Thompson for? Personally, I think you have to fit the tutor book(s) to the pupil and you can't just buy on recommendation as what will suit one pupil will not suit another.

  • AF has many meanings depending on the forum...on flylady its meaning is entirely different!

    DD1 is doing grade 2. I just bought the associated board books as instructed!

    Earthie I would like to go AF until half term, but DH is wriggling so prob back to Fridays and Saturdays after September.

    I am guessing its not John Thompson comedian?
  • Aww just saw that on re reading, Earthie.x

    It's for my dd who has just turned 7 Alex. It was recommended by the tutor and seems to compliment her first lesson well. I wa surprised by how much got done in a half hour lesson!
