There were people tonight, in orange jackets, going around the wee road in front of the flat, shining torches backwards and forwards across the ground. What else were they looking for but frogs? There are plenty around just now, with ponds nearby. And are they, like, municipal workers, collecting the frogs to put them helpfully by a pond? Or are they operating for a firm that supplies to a restaurant in the French Concession? I really need to learn Chinese, so I can ask about this stuff.
LTPTP XXV: We Shall Overcome
We shall indeed. It's a lovely wee tune to learn. I've almost memorized it this morning, the idea being, when I encounter a piano, I want something to sit down and play on the bugger. I've a feeling that my keyboard's keys are lighter than a proper piano's, and there'll be a bit of effort transferring the skills I've gotten so far. Probably, at some point this year, I'll be in workplace with a piano. I'll print off some simple music and scales, and work at it, but it's likely to be in a public place so I want something to avoid making a twat of myself initially. It feels right that this should be the first tune I learn by heart.
Are you not fluent yet?? Come on Nix.. pull your finger out..!
