Unlike many if not all similar events in The Family household, this was
a highly respectable event, in which everyone seemed on their very best
behaviour.
The jamming session seemed to be warming up when disaster
struck. The piano - a fairly new addition to the household - clearly felt
inadequately briefed on its role and perhaps a little ignored, or
impressed by Suzy who could put Liberace to shame on a good night,
maybe not the crying all the way to the bank though!. This resulted in
immature and irritating behaviour which involved the consumption of too
much red wine. Unfortunately unable to hold its drink it began to have
delusions. It decided that it was in fact an out of tune and rusty
doorbell, it sulked and decided that it did not want to play anymore,
it took its ball and went home.
In search of insobriety and insanity the proceedings came to an untimely
end. Needless to say all's well that ends well. Unable to hold its
drink the piano finally recovered on Monday morning with the aid of
hairdriers, tissues and cotton buds. Much to her satisfaction Gill
recovered much earlier with the aid of tea, nurofen and peppermint oil.
Damn the ketones and tannin in the red wine. Remember just because your
paraniod, it does not mean everyone is not out to get you!
