Believe it or not I used to play Classical Organ and Trumpet in my youth. Mainly Bach on the organ and I played trumpet with big bands when I was 16 up until around 21.
Once was invited to play with Woody Herman at Newcastle City Hall which was a fantastic experience for a 16 year old.
The Glenn Miller Orchestra, recorded me playing the trumpet solos for the Matt Monroe song "Till"
Played on the Sunderland Empire for the Doxford Shipyard Disaster, your Husband may recall that, backing for Susan Maughan's vocals.
Played in the Albert Hall at 14. Brass Band Harton and Westoe Colliery.
Nearly got kicked out of South Shields Grammar School for moonlighting and making a few bob on the side but they still wanted me to front the school and town orchestras lol
I always got the job of split lead trumpet playing the high notes
Ah a mispent youth, I learned to drink, smoke, chase skirt with the best lol That is partly why I had to get married at 18 , I am 67 my Son is 48 so work that out lol
Alas was all put paid to at a venue in Edinburgh, Scotland one Friday night when a fight started and I was "bashed in the gob" which loosened my front teeth and hence I lost my ability to wail out high notes.
I still love big bands and I am an ardent fan of Nelson Riddle and Billy May and the arrangements they wrote for Mr Sinatra.
Thinking back I have had a widely interesting and varied life and ah isn't dun yit.
BUT I still cannae type.

We bought some dry cured black bacon for Christmas from our butchers. It was outstanding. Apparently it is soaked in molasses.

I had had my normal meals all day yesterday ,but last night watching the football and enjoying a (or 2) glasses of pinotage I suddenly said to my husband that I could eat a whole box of Pringles I really was craving something savoury.I found some popadoms smeared one with Marmite and zapped it in the microwave It was delicious and only 5 carbs ___Then I made another one !!!
No self control

How many carbs in a whole box of Pringles ?

Confessions of an idiot diabetic!

Yesterday I foolishly had mince, a very large dumpling with a few chips and vegetables whilst out. The dumpling was large and ‘doughy’ but delicious with lots of gravy.

Soon after I felt very lethargic and unusually agitated. I slept all the way home in the car. I tested nearly 3 hrs later and was 11.2! I can’t recall hitting that level before and was horrified. It took a few hours to feel better.

A lesson learned! 🙄
 
Lesson learned but you enjoyed it and it didn't do you any harm Amigo. You cannot live like a nun all your life so once in a while a small indiscretion is not a capital offence. I would blame the chips.

Chips rarely affect me much to be honest Vince but I should know by now that pastry and dumplings do. Not being on any meds means I’ve got to try harder. I just wish cafes could think beyond carbs! 🙄
