If we are dredging I want to know how the weeks of African drumming lessons went.

Me too, I have little drummer boy going through my head now.

Unsurprisingly the course got cancelled because there was no other interest.
They were going to run another one and let me know but I never heard from them again.
That was a bit of a blessing.
My family got a refund and bought me a bottle of I assume really nice whisky with it. I had given up alcohol a while before so I still have that for guests and emergencies.
It remains unopened as I have had neither.
Still have the drum. I use it as an ornament and conversation piece.
In a strange twist I joined a samba band for a few days in the XR rebellion in April. There I discovered I have absolutely no sense of rhythm or timing.
I won't be doing that again.
This year they got me a pair of Jeans. Terrible things to cycle in though.

For christmas my family got me a drum.
An african drum.
And drumming lessons.
African drumming lessons.
Whenever I am at a festival and I see these groups doing these drumming things I look at them with complete contempt.
My family must have misconstrued my contemptuousness for admiration or envy.
Now I have 8 Thursdays of drumming lessons.
And a fucking drum.
