Because of my commitment to my work I played with small village bands Littleborough and Summerbridge & Dacre,it was great fun.
I like writing silly things like,

No one had noticed the quartet in the corner but F had sussed the four of them out.
C started rooting in his pocket and pulled out a small note from his wife Grace,reminding him to call and see D at no 9 to and to congratulate his son on coming second in the school harmony race before G7 got there.
Crotchet was trying to sell Quaver a timepiece but he was only willing to offer half the value.
Dot made her point saying he should increase the offer or give it a rest.The bartering turned into an augment when G sharp intervened and Crotchet held Quaver with the tie. Formada separated them insisting on a Pause but it wasn't long before they continued.
Forte the landlady said she didn't mind all the noise but decrescendo said it was to much for her and she was going to sit over by the piano.
Staff looked great and in form apart from a few ledger lines caused by a recent illness, her recovery was all down to a super tonic prescribed by the M.D.
The old major was commenting on the new pub sign when he was rudely interrupted by DS & DC.He had to repeat himself for a second time which annoyed him as it was his first time in the bar.
Hornpipe an old sea salt,and his wife concertina had purchases a new boat not realising it was to big for their present moorings and complaining bitterly about the need to change Quay.
Finale the landlord put an end to the evening by calling last orders and reminding Hornpipe of the severe weather forecast and the need to baton down.

Embouchure the local gossip, also known as the village mouthpiece informed the Bandmaster of the sad news regarding one of his Bass players who had been ill for sometime,apparently he had received the results of his test piece and had been diagnosed with a Tuba on the brain.
Several member of his band had been ill lately,the lady solo horn player had visited the Doctor who told her she had acute angina she said that she had come to be examined not admired.
The second Euphonium was in hospital being circumcised but this was no skin of the bandmasters nose has he had someone to replace him knowing that he wouldn't be able to stand up to the task for sometime.
On hearing the bad news the trombone player had to slide out of the door.
Valve who had been down at rock bottom had sprung back up again after getting himself out of a sticky situation,somehow the pressure had pushed him to far and now wanted to stay in the middle.
