Back to Blog Written on 02-Jun-2009 by RichardMichaelBack home in Kirkcaldy now after a day in Lochpots (Friday) and St Andrews Primary (yesterday).
From the "Buttery Blues" in Port Errol, I had the "Smachery Song" in Lochpots.
'Smachery" is a NEast word for all things sweet that are bad for you and I was temptedto come off my healthy eating ways by the good ladies of the staff as Fridays are designated "Fancy Piece" days - how virtuous to sit there with an apple!
Once again the kids were so interesting to work with as they were yesterday where I found the most promising drummer called Alex. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, Alex saw no reason why he couldn't play the drums like his pals. So...... we shoved the drum stool out of the way, someone held down the hi-hat and Alex let rip like wow!
And....I asked him who was his teacher? And it transpires no-one. This young lad in P7 has the most beatiful fast hands I've seen for playing drums and I really hope the school can find him a teacher because he made my day!
In between w'shops birthday boy Jamie (1 year old) blew in for a sand party on Sunday afternoon before I left for the sunny North and what an afternoon that was. Great to have the family together in the sun!
