Last week I dusted off the old piano I've been housing since my last feeble attempt to learn to play and began taking lessons with Yolanda, a teaching colleague from back in the 80s. I've made a deal with myself that if I learn to make sounds that other people can recognise I will shout myself a new piano. I think my money is fairly safe. Last time I tried to learn I asked two friends to 'name that tune' as I was playing 'House of the rising sun'. They argued about whether it was Happy Birthday or the Titanic song. Fail! Luckily I take failure well and am back on the 'piano bike'. Maybe having more time to practise will make a difference. Stay patient Yolanda :)
