9:38 pm in Uncategorized by Edd Stonham

Sarah Phone midday to tell me her dad had ended up in Hospital…Jean was in a real panic which is not normal.

We both Left work early so we could make sure he was ok and to give Jean some support as it cannot be nice to get that sort of phone call.

Well when we got to Peterborough hospital he looked as if he had been punched in the eye and looked somewhat bored.

It happens to be that he got up from his desk went to walk across the office only to pass out and come round with Paramedics over him…

Much to say he is alright and managed to get home later with the doctors thinking it was just a normal faint.

It was a long night after driving from Peterborough to Thetford and then back to Histon it was nearly 21.00 so we had a Chinese. UMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Wasn’t much left as I was really starving.

Band Practice…

10:27 pm in Band by Edd Stonham

Band Practice was great this week…

A few movers so we have a new 2nd horn player… and a few less cornets infact the band seemed more of a round sound this week.

We do need to start playing to dynamics but I am sure we can all learn not to BLAST out sections we like playing.

Anyway good practice missed the drums.

1st band practice of the year..

10:23 pm in Uncategorized by Edd Stonham

Well I managed to get to band practice tonight.

This was my 1st practice of the year, it was good to get back and play a few changes in players moving around but that has made the band not so top heavy.

We are not doing any competitions this year as we the committee feel we need a year to regroup and practice and get better.

Anyway I am sure that in the future we will start doing competitions then we can see how good we really are.

10:29 pm in Uncategorized by Edd Stonham

At last the gound was able to he dug so I could bury the rabbit, it had been so cold I had not been able to do it untill today.

I had left the rabbit left in a double bag in the cleaned out hutch so I could the sort him out and kept the hutch closed do nothing could get to him.

Anyway he was exactly as I had left him when I unwrapped him which meant it was easy to deal with.

He is no buried in the garden in the area that my new shed will cover.

Anyway he is now resting in peace.
