Drum

 

I really like to beat the drum. The very big drum you carry with you when marching in a band. Great banging sound!

I sang Christmas Carols with the church choir last year. They didn’t like my rendition of “Silent Night” on the big drum.

I also find the big drum helps me tell the time.

When I wake up in the middle of the night and I can’t find my watch I just open the window and bang on my big drum.

Someone is sure to shout “Who’s the idiot banging a drum at three in the morning?” 

Here's a recording of me practicing playing the drum.

    1. The priest suggested I mime in the choir to avoid upsetting the local wild-life.

      God bless, Martha.

  5. I often say everyone should take up a music instrument, but I wonder if there should be exceptions.

  7. It seems to me that every male I've ever met always wanted to play the drums but very few actually succeeded in convincing their parents to let them.

    1. The drum is such a wonderful instrument. Easy to learn and it goes very well with the bagpipes.

      God bless always, Barbara.
