Just seen my 3rd ever badger on the N11. Still never seen a live one. Actually, that's not entirely true, the one I hit was live moments before I hit it and I did see it just before impact.

The Bray Concert Band has just had the last rehearsal before St Patricks Day. It's sounding very good although outside gigs can be weird and sound strange on the day. I sounded rubbish for the first half of the rehearsal as it took me that long to warm up and be able to play it. Was sounding like a hamster had got stuck inside the trombone. Maybe I should clean it before Thursday... 2nd half was spot on though!

It's Ss 30th this year so it's my turn to do something impressive. Given the trip I had it had better be damn impressive! I have decided where and booked the flights. Just got to work out which over priced hotel now.

I was hoping (and had planned) for tomorrow off work as I was meant to be doing an over night shift tonight. After hassling and asking if it was _really_ 100% sorted and going ahead several times I wasn't surprised when they stuffed it up at the last minute. Normal nights sleep, pants day in the office tomorrow. Oh well.
