Hi from Paul

Hello all

Just a quick note to let you all know I am doing well up here in Jolly Newcastle. It is hard work particularly keeping up with the youngsters and they like to keep you busy the whole time but am learning lots. There is lots and lots of music up here with sessions most nights somewhere the only problem is you do need to stay in sometimes to do the work. So do not believe it when they say students have it easy ITS NOT TRUE. All the tutors are really nice its great when you are have a lecture about something and you know the lecturer was there at the time although it can be tricky if you disagree, I described a piece of music as 'Irish Muzak' which didn't go down at all well.

The plan is to go back to Northampton on Fri 21st Dec and return here after New years day I am afraid it isn't long but hope to catch up then if Sam is having his pre-christmas session in the artisan I will try to get to that and also the boat on New Years day

Love to all
