Saturday 15th December 2018

Final lesson of the year with one of my regulars - well, two of them, a mother and a son who have 2 hour joint lessons. I've been teaching these guys since January, from scratch, and they're both amazing drummers now, really nailing the tricky stuff. I feel very proud and we have a brilliant working relationship to the extent that I spent an extra half an hour there today just chatting to them and their family. I like this teaching malarkey, I'm getting this right.

The rest of the day was spent preparing our big Christmas party. A gets very stressed about hosting, but she loves it all the same. Everything had to be perfect, the excessive ham, the cheese board, the decorations...but I see why, it's our first party we've hosted together, in 'our' house (as she calls it, she owns it) and it's Christmas. There was a certain amount of pressure, but it was truly a wonderful night with lots of lovely guests, all of whom mingled and got on so well. Bandmates, comedians, old school friends, just perfect. Felt festive, felt like we were good hosts, it was much fun all round. This adulting lark is actually quite nice, as is being all loved up with a girl who has totally changed my world.
