phew
It’s Sunday lunchtime and I’m collapsed in my living room, anticipating a day of sport on telly. A few highlights from the week:
- I am no longer an employee of the Barbican Centre.
- Philip Wilby remembers my mum very well, “I used to like her in physics”.
- Passed driving test with 9 minor faults. Suggest you all avoid the roads around Blackheath and Lee Green for a little while.
- Dublin looks like the sort of city I might like, though having missed my flight I spent less than 2 hours there, so I can’t be certain. It’s certainly a nifty way of putting pressure on yourself, having an audition panel wait an hour and a half for you. They were all very nice about it though.
So I’m determined to use this day off for as much inactivity as possible, as it all starts up again tomorrow.

Congratulations! Both on having left the Barbican and having passed your driving test!

congratulations on passing driving test, just “be careful out there”. Glad you had chance to talk to Philip Wilby. Did you also know his mum was in same nursing home as your grandma.
Any chance of him writing a horn concerto for you?
