Hey folklings,
So, you want to know about West Of Scotland?
Well, this week, we have been staying at Carberry Tower (which is gorgeous, by the way, even the queen stayed here!), where you get two puddings a day *mmm*; fire alarms at the crack of dawn and toast as black as a burnt penguin (if you have ever had the pleasure of seeing one)!
The music on the course is both challenging and interesting and the sense of achievement on performing the music to a high standard is overpowering! :) and it sounds quite nice too!
We don't want to say Mr James Lowe (conductor) has a temper, but he has a habit of stomping around, pouting and charging into the orchestra during the pieces, but we wouldn't have him any other way, because he is lovely.
The instructors... well that's a completely different story, all that we are going to say is that DJ Johnny Gee is a bit of a character!
The house staff are a bunch of interesting "individuals", to say the least...
In between periods of playing music the members of the orchestra take part in different activities, such as; sing-a-longs; four people chapel raves; WSSSO has talent and the most unaggressive, non-contact, friendly, non-competitive games of rounders...!
Finally, all that is left to say is that we love West Of Scotland orchestra and...
BIG JIMMY LOWE!!!
THAT'S ALL FOLKS
