In other news, kind of related to the drum exam, I'm growing a beard. The last time I had a shave was the day of the exam. It needs a lot of work. I find myself trying to push hair out so it goes from the stage of looking like you can't be arsed to shave to having a beard. Trouble is that if I get to the stage where I look like I've got a Noel Edmonds Tidy Beard then it's coming off. I've even got an electric 'grooming kit'. Oh dear, that's just a slippery slope towards moisturising territory. I hope that doesn't happen as I'm a man after all. And only tonight while looking at an early photo of Metallica (which I like to do every now and again) I realise I bear an uncanny resemblance to a 20 year-old Lars Ulrich...minus the head hair. Hmmm.
And in some more news, I saw Darren Ferguson in a motorway service station the other week. Just thought I'd tell you that. Have you ever seen the son of anyone famous?
Anyway, have one of my favourite tracks for drums courtesy of the talented man Dave Grohl. Too talented for his own good. The bastard.

Well done! Just goes to show that it's never too late to learn an instrument. Plus, I reckon your new musical prowess easily trumps my entire repertoire, which consists of Smoke on the Water and Whole Lotta Rosie on the guitar, and the opening bars of The Entertainer and Flower of Scotland on the piano. Available for weddings etc
Who would need to play anything else? You've got all bases covered there. I'm sure Flower of Scotland goes down a astorm in Italy.
By the way, Thumps, look out for an entry on No Remorse in the next week or so, might be something you and/or Lost Jimmy would be interested in visiting.
