“Ye Gods No!” I cried when first i heard.
“How could they be so cruel?” I followed with as the realisation sank in.
Then…
“Well it isn’t all that bad, really, at least it is electronic,” as more information was forthcoming.
The reason for all this, well Linda and Steph have bought Ben a drum. I know, I wanted him to be a musician and they buy him a drum to thwart my dreams of a son who is a Rock-Star-Movie-Scientist-Author-Poet-Model-Samaritan-Hero, if he turns out a drummer it’ll totally Ringo him is my big worry “Peace and Love,” Ringo, “Peace and Love.”
Anyway, he seems to really like it, well it makes a noise and it lights up when he hits it, what’s not to like. And at least it isn’t a tin drum, I believe my brother once got one of those for Christmas and it had disappeared by Boxing Day, something about “loud noise” and “attic” is what my mum said.
Anyway, here is an obligatory video to amuse you.
