Hello everyone, it's been intimated that my previous post merely asking if "anyone has a clarinet lying around that they don't want" wasn't interesting enough to capture the imagination of South Bristols finest collection of internet based buying, selling, and swapping people (all 4,230 of you). Far be it for me to contradict the powers that be, the great deciders and gaugers of fascination, or the authorities on writing a quick advert, so I'm taking it upon myself to re-write it in a more exciting and exhilarating fashion which will hopefully draw in the crowds of clarinet-hoarders.
Toot Toot!
It's dawn. A low mist is clinging to the battlefield, rolling gently westward over the sun-starved swamps and barrows. A hundred long years have passed since the giant unicorn explosion had caused the planet to split in to two, spilling molten magma outward in snaking tendrils towards the centre of the universe. A group of swooping matt-black birds curl downward in a tumbling arc, piercing eyes scanning the ground for the mysterious clarinetof Caroombaqualla. "Where is it then?" said Robert the leader of the matt-black swooping birds. "Maybe it doesn't exist after all?" Colin, another of the matt-black birds replied with a squark "Why don't we ask on BS4 instead of searching here? There's 4,230 members on there, maybe one of them's got a clarinet instead that they don't want, and then we can all go home and have a cup of tea and some biscuits?
Charlie Fortune This is too much. I would never sell my clarinet to someone with such a slim grip on reality. I'm going to give it to some children to play rounders with instead.
Alison Bown I may do but it is being tried out by another friend in another city at the moment. It is old but good (B and H). If you need it straight away then can't help but can chase the friend..probs talking a couple of months tho even if she doesn't keep it as it is in Leicester.
Rory Walker Thank you everyone for your comments, I'm overwhelmed by it all and rather looking forward to embellishing future posts with spurious commentary, salacious gossip, and highly decorated and sugar-coated facts. I'm deeply touched to now be the very prou...See More
Dre Puddy Hahaha nicely done! Good reed (oh yes,I went there). Hope you continue to make more toots in the way you fancy. Are you writing some musics or having a blast?
Rory Walker Well, the intention is making some music, but I've got this ghastly 'learning curve' thing in the way that needs knocking down a peg or two first. Currently all I appear to be knocking down is any potential positive relationship I could be developing with the neighbours. Lets hope it's a quick curve.
Dre Puddy Aha I see! My bit of fluff has a clarinet he toots now and again to make some musicings-not professionally, had a few lessons at school (not many) but can definitely make noises in tune with the song he's writing. He says blowing out the noise is half the battle, keep at it!
