Music To My Ears

Now I am getting to feel a bit left out.

All my friends with Bluebelle are playing instruments - there's James playing drums and cornet, Grace plays piano and violin and recorder and cornet (wow that's a lot) Lucy told me she is starting to play the recorder and the squeeze-box. Even my old two legs has got a guitar that he plays and my personal shopper has got an electronic organ she tinkers with sometimes.

I tell you I felt rather left out. Max has got a little mouse he puts his paw on every so often and it squeaks at him. It's not a real mouse - just a plastic one but Max doesn't know that and Sebastian and me said we wouldn't tell him. Don't want to spoil his fun.

Anyway I was over the field the other day and I popped into this church. It's where the Brass Band plays and they must have been practicing and left their instruments out while they went and had a cup of tea in the interval. Have you noticed how two legs always manage to break things into little sessions which they cn punctuate with a cup of tea. I think it is a weird habit. I tried a bit of old two legs' tea the other day while he was writing something on the computer. It tasted foul - the tea that is - I haven't tasted the computer - yet he is always saying "I wouldn't mind a cup of tea if anyone is making one." Now how he thinks me or Max or Sebastian are going top get up their fill up that tin thing with water, plug it in, switch it on, wait til it steams and then pour it into another pot with a couple of bags in it, then wait a while then pour it into anouther pot with some cow juice in it and then drink it. What's the matter with the tap?

Anyway I was in the church and I saw this thing standing there with a long slider and a big horn. I thought I'd have a try. Well I tried to reach up to it to blow down the tube and the thing toppled over. It toppled into a set of cornets and then into the drums. What a clatter.

The band came running out and chased me out of the church

Think I am better without an instrument.
