OK, it’s not quite summer, but it is very warm out today – has been for the past week. Maybe it’ll be like this, through summer, until autumn – that would be nice. Although, knowing the British weather, it’ll probably get cold in July and rain until September. Who knows…
Yesterday, due to the rather clement weather, I ventured out into Osterley Park which isn’t far from my house, and it was beautiful. The sun was shining, the grass had just been cut, the flowers were in bloom and everyone was out enjoying the sun. Needless to say I took my camera with me and maybe I’ll upload some snaps when I get a spare moment. In contrast, after my wander, I spent a couple of hours in the dark confines of the local snooker hall in an attempt to improve my game – It took a while for the body to adjust! Not bad though, finished with two frames each. The day didn’t finish there though! I went along to a church in Twickenham, where young(ish) people from churches around London were invited for an evening of games and socialising. A good time was had by all, and I went home a happy, but very tired, bunny.
Alas, can’t spend all day out there. Need to practice for an upcoming concert. Some of the pieces aren’t difficult – Gershwin’s Summertime for example. However, I’m not entirely au fait with Beethoven’s Violin Sonata. A little more careful listening and piano bashing required I think…
