Yesterday afternoon

The birthday party was lovely, and the singalong was a great success. After dinner I asked the birthday boy if he'd like a go on my keyboard. Initially he hesitated, saying that he'd never touched a musical instrument before. I popped out for a fag, and when I came back he was playing a tune with both hands in parallel octaves. What's more, his hands were in the right position and the fingers were used correctly. He enjoys the classical pieces that I play, and I think he's more than capable of it. We'll start lessons on Monday.
