In other blogmeet news

It was nice to 'meet' Mig although I'm not sure she realised that we were meeting. I was the guy part exchanging a cello this afternoon and chatting about cello cases for my (professional cellist) OH!

Sorry Mig, I meant to say hi, but you popped in and out of your office so fast I didn't have time to say anything. And maybe I'm wrong and it wasn't you, but I think it was. The new hair looks great!

No!!! really? How excellent:) I kept meaning to ask if you ever got cello stuff from us. But didn't want to sound as though I was touting fro custom!
What a shame I was in a rush. (Late as usual)

We're very loyal - we bought the first 1/2 size from Philip and now we've come back for a 7/8 (although we're not the people on the invoice: I don't know who they are, he must have muddled me with someone else!)
I'm hoping to get my OH to buy one of those styrofoam cases too. He'll be able to retire off us soon!
I promise to say hello properly next time.

Operator error on the computer I expect. Hope the cello is nice. I can't remember which one it was..usually I only know people by the instruments they bought and it can be quite a surprise to meet the player!

Oh, blog/real life overlap - how weird!

(Being uncovered myself remains one of my ultimate nightmares though)

the Why was to Spinny - don;t knwo why it came out before her comment. Blognessabounds, i suppose.

Anyway Mig, the cello is a Chinese one and a resounding success. He got a distinction in a compeition on Monday. So tra la la. grade 5 at 12. Very proud Dad.

She's quite nice really, isn't she? Did you say hello, I'm the beep? Cos if not, how would she know? I'm guessing you don't look EXACTLY like your picture...

yeah, she's alright I suppose!
We didn't 'meet' in any traditonal sense: Mig flew into the room as I was in mid conversation, grabbed her bit of paper and flew out again. I had a second to smile at her and continue to loook interested in whatever PB was saying. She didn't appear again, and I had to dash to listen to the new cello performing at skule.
But the new hair is great!

And most days I look at least as cheerful as my photo

PB might have been a bit taken aback if you'd suddenly announced that you were a Beep!
He apologises about the invoice error btw :)
