Little Drummer Boy

Nick went out during the morning to get a box we were anticipating from Ascension, but had gone too early, so went again just before lunch, and was successful. The box was a surprise for us – rather, the contents – Wilson blessed us with snacks again! Nick got his brand new toy, which he’s been looking forward to for months, which is a drum machine. It works fabulously well, and enables him to program any drum rhythm/pattern/solo, as well as a bass line. This means that he can do his own drumming and bass for his music. It sounds as good as the real thing. He spent the rest of the day playing with it, only emerging for lunch and supper. Even his guitar pupils, Andrew and Harry, were subjected to a rather long demo of it! As he doesn’t have to prepare bible studies this week, he has a bit of extra time on his day off to do this. The reason for no bible study prep is that because of last week’s cancellation of the Thursday studies, he’s cancelling this week’s Tuesday ones, so that they won’t be out of sync too far. Instead, tomorrow night, we are just having a fellowship evening, where people bring a plate of eats (as usual) and we’ll have tea and chat.
