Today is a good day - got both my boys for once

[profile] exalted_mugwump is back from university and [profile] micavity is round for the day.  We've been playing board games, singing songs and trying to manage tunes on mouth organs.  Kelvin and I have pretty much equal skills here.  I think he probably won by one tune as his rendition of  'Good King Wenceslas' was just about recognisable, and Henry worked out he was playing 'Wild Rover' even if I failed to recognise it.  However, although my stab at 'The Keel Row' was recognised eventually, 'Dirty Old Town' failed to make it to the recognition level.

Methinks we both have a fair way to go with the harmonica!  (Recorders, bowed psaltry and concertina I can manage - mouth organs are a new venture and very different to play...)

Well, I'm sure that what you lost in the musical rendition you more than made up for with the enjoyment and enthusiasm, which is by far the main thing. And that you could actually do something is awe inspiring for me, since I am a musical illiterate. Bravo to you! :)
