blamebramptonI JUST ACCOMPANIED MYSELF!
After a lifetime of being able to sing, I just played an instrument along with my singing for the VERY FIRST TIME!
OK, so it was Hush Little Baby, and in not a great key for, you know, actually singing, and it has two easy chords, but I still feel accomplished!
And Mr Brammers congratulated me. And then laughed when I made my ukuleles kiss each other in excitement.
And I may need to buy a Baritone ukulele, because it would be nicer in that pitch ...
But YAY!
In other important news for the day, HAPPY BIRTHDAY![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=3)
kayoko ! I know you're Glee-ing at the moment, but your cheery posts always make me smile, and I hope that there has been an avalanche of joy in your day!
Andal_hazel , I hope that wherever you are and whatever you're doing, it's a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, too!

Date: 2011-07-10 09:46 pm (UTC)I should really dust off my guitar one of these days. Not today, though. Or tomorrow, for that matter. Or... huh. Maybe October?

Date: 2011-07-12 05:15 pm (UTC)Actually, I probably will be dusting it off, as my brother is coming to stay for a bit while he gets himself set up over here, and he's quite the musician.
Teeny ukelele, player to scale.

Rest assured that Bath will be on my itinerary, whenever my next trip is!

Date: 2011-07-13 08:17 pm (UTC)I am thrilled to have amused Mr B. However, if you repeated it to him, you entirely deserve what you get.
Yay!

Date: 2011-07-10 11:30 pm (UTC)This line made me laugh out loud! I'm loving your ukulele posts! (No, you don't actually know me. I just read all your fic.) lol

Date: 2011-07-12 03:54 pm (UTC)Alas, Mr B laughs out loud at me a lot. I try to tell him that I am a Serious Person, but he points out that every Deep Political Comment is balanced by a possum impersonation or suchlike ...
