MM Links April 2011 [Week 3]
40 Answers
For the third time (only two more to go!) I bid “Good Morning” to all MM Linkers. This is “The Count” (aka middlestump) wondering what records I can set/break this week. I suspect that crofter must have some regrets about my ennoblement.
To follow on from Croquet and Cricket, the theme this week is Music. My father was a multi-instrumentalist semi-professional performer. When I was 7, he left me with no choice – I was going to learn the violin (it’s a long story). How I remember those painful early days and that’s just a recollection of the hurt that I inflicted on myself (and others)! It’s unimaginable just what unearthly sounds can emanate from any decent instrument at the hands of an unskilled young learner. However, I studied the instrument for 11 years and along the way, taught myself how to play the viola and bass guitar. I also developed a decent-enough tenor voice.
