Yes Alexi, I checked also and can now lie with impunity about my age.

So I'm 29 and have had 40 yrs of clarinet playing ! Starting off as a classical geek, I've had to bend in the last 15 years to accommodate most of the band scores I'm getting. In 3 weeks my "Chorus Line" books (2+4) are for eefer, beefer, ceefer, woofer and alto sax so my learning curve has been steep.
Basically self taught, but my introduction to Lawrence Gill of Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama opened up my narrow world to exciting musical possibilites incl jazz recently.

1st clarinet in a very happy Tayside Symphony Orchestra here in Scotland, and guest for sax, clar and bass clt in other orchestras around.

Regular recitalist at University lunchtime concerts (mixed trios) and had a reg clar 4tet for years in Aberdeen. Having a super wind section we recently formed a wind octet from TSO and are exploring the repertoire, doing gigs for the National Trust etc also.

Just teamed up with pros on cello and piano to again explore the rep for this combo - Fruhling, Brahms, Glinka etc.

Some of this is paid - but it's not my day job - I'm a dental GP - nice to be able to steep myself in something I really enjoy away from work.

I've a golf h/c of 5 and have been know to dabble in a little competitive photography. The advent of a digital slr and Adope Photoshop is, I have to say, a distraction. My staff occasionally have to remind me that I have a day job.

Merry Christmas everyone !

Bob Thomson
