Letters to the Editors
Dear Editors,
A Funeral dirge for frustrated Archers listeners, to the Tune of Elton John's Your Song
(- well, why not? He re-did, and massacred, Candle in the wind for Princess Di, didn't he? )
It's a little bit funny (It could be more if they tried)
If only Nigel
The knot had untied
His family had money
He was an upper class kid
And a very big house where
they used to live
And you can tell everybody
This is the Pargeter song
He always meant well but
Often did it wrong
We knew he wasn't much
but it was the best they could do
He went out with Shula
And had an ice-cream van too
He sat on the roof
And kicked off some moss
Then just as we expected
Nigel fell off
Some people think that was unkind
so I wrote this song
He was a well worn-out character
He'd gone on much too long
So we won't be forgetting
At the next anniversary too
please kill off Jill Archer
Who's too nice to be true
But anyway, the thing is, what we really mean
This storyline's much weaker than it
should have been
Grade-one-a-thon
Dear Editors,
Along with 130 other musicians, professional and amateur, from Cambridgeshire, I am taking part in a Grade-one-a-thon to raise money for the Spinal Injuries Association. This Association has provided amazing support for a friend and local horn player following a fall which has left him in a wheelchair for the foreseeable future.
On Monday 3st January we all had one lesson on an instrument chosen from another family of instruments. We gather to take our Grade One exams just eight weeks later. That evening, we perform together on our new instruments in a concert.
I am going to learn the oboe!!
