Just a bit of fun...
In detail (what else?), what do you have on your desk - or wherever it is you sit to do your work?
Here goes for me:
* Pot of pens and pencils (seashore design on the pot)
* 'Wine-glass' tealight holder
* Tall carved wooden candle stick with candle, standing on crocheted doily
* Mini teddy bear wearing a jumper with a snowman design
* LED desk lamp
* Phones - landline and mobile (Sony Xperia)
* Photo of mum, aged about 20
* VW Campervan mug of coffee, on a rose-design coaster
* Headphones (JVC)
* Asus 27" monitor
* Microsoft mouse on recycled tyre mouse-mat (from the Alternative Technology Centre in Wales)
* TalkTalk internet router
* HP Envy 5540 all-in-one printer
* 2 memory sticks
* Gas lighter for candles
* Day-glo yellow highlighter pen
* Packet of salmon Dreamies treats for Daisy
* Microsoft keyboard (photo of Daisy on-screen)
* Shadows
...and here it is, minus the mobile - which I needed to take the photo!
This is a much better view of my lair. I'm learning to play my beautiful bass guitar, only been a few months so I'm pretty hopeless, but getting better. Not expecting miracles.
Do not give up learning the bass. I wish I could play an instrument
A long time ago I tried to learn the guitar but gave up as I was truly useless.
Later I tried to learn the penny whistle but had to stop because every time I started practising my cats began crying and howling.
Later still I tried to learn the harmonica and managed to get as far as a recognisable (but not very good) Jingle Bells. I am considering trying again with the harmonica.
Can I hire your services and that of your penny whistle this xmas....
the journey has to start somewhere....
I know....I was just being silly...
Yes yes of course I remember Lino we had some down .. I did wonder if that's what you meant but taking things literally! The piano thing was a pianola I think. But the linoleum just sounded like it should be an instrument! And it sounds like harmonium!!
