Piano World Home Page Forums Our Most Popular Forums Adult Beginners Forum Rostoskys serious thread. (by request)

Same chap as last time won, with a bid at the 59th second. Groan.
He apparently has 8 or 9 harpsichords.

The other one turned out to be a 'project' rather than a playable instrument.

Bug still in full flow. Yesterday's visit to Norfolk has knocked me back (waiting for buses in freezing winds coming off the North Sea), but I'm just going to snuggle up at home for the rest of the week.

Just realised no one has posted this.... tut tut tut tutting.


Eglantine I hope you get better soon, I can offer you advice on last min ebay sniping should you wish, dont go to norfolk in the windywet again, its not good for you .
stay as home and keep warm. Also, dont go to Aberystwyth, because its super windy and wet there.

Anyways here is todays most marvellous posting....

Rossy, yes, last-min tactics advice welcome. It was down to ZERO seconds and no other bid... He clearly waited until I had no time at all to counter-bid... but he can't have known what my max bid was (and that wouldn't be revealed until he reached it).

Loving the Requiem, Recaredo.

Yes, there are some, ahem, 'familiar' bits in there!

Evening guys, just popping in to say "Hi"

Better luck next time Eglantine, got some ebaying to do myself now, before doin' supper, just straight forward buy now stuff for me though!

I'm suprised no one has posted this yet, actually I'm not, but I'm posting it anyway, not really a fan of Lilly Allen, but the melody to this can sound quite nice, (to me anyway lol, been playing this using G, Bm, C, Cm - not the correct chords to this song, but I prefer 'em!)

Will be nippin' back later, see you guys in a bit

see you in a bit wayne, Dont do too much BIN ing !!

Glad to see the Requiem by M. Haydn was loved. I also enjoyed all your posts, folks.

Later!

Hello

I still lurk around here from time to time.

Lookity look:

Good morning everyone! I enjoyed all of the postings. I have some offerings to share before I head for work. Here is Jackson Browne with "Running on Empty."

I've been listening to a lot of Tracy Chapman lately. I love her music. Here is "Another Sun."

I've long been a fan of James Taylor. Here is "Fire and Rain."

My friend Louis turned me on to this performance by Al Green, "Simply Beautiful."

Here's more from Tracy Chapman, "Mountains O'Things."

That's all for now. I'm off to work. I will check in later. Have a wonderful day!

Evening guy's

Your'e on a roll with the musical posts, as always Griffin,

Didn't return lastnigh as ended up messing on our new Epad, (A cheap version of the Ipad) and I must say, I'm impressed! It's great for surfing the net, youtubing, games etc, I even logged in PW with it and could view the music posts no probs. An excellent buy @ £60. A great xmas pressy if anyone struggling for ideas

Wonder if Rossy is working on his next compo?

Anyway, gonna get half hour on the old piano, before it gets too late in the evening, bk later

Griffin cannot fail with good postings!! I think he has got the posting magic in him!!
Wayne, mrs R says "how do you type on the epad?" and wonders if it is a touchscreen typeing thing..
I think she prefers a keypad like on the laptop....
She doenst like the Ipad, beacuse it sounds like a feminine Hygiene product... ( I need to change my Ipad)

Anyways, yes you are totally correct I have been working on composition no.2 which is just about as different as one can get from composition no.1

I thought for the christmas piano thing I would do " I wish you a merry gaga christmas" instead of a merry little christmas. And put some pics of gaga looking festive in the video.Maybe photo shop the meat outfit for a turkey one?

I changed my mind, because someone else will be bound to do it, not the gaga version though, i invented that.

So, I hunted down the sheet music for something else entirely for christmas.

If you had £60 to spare wayne, why didnt you add another forty and get me to sing in drag?

I could use the money because it is getting very cold in wales, and I have to boil the kettle a lot for our hot water bottles to keep us warm.

Walse has got the highest incidence of fuel poverty in the whole country running at 32% of folk living in fuel poverty.

Our house was built by muppets, only muppets would build a house in wales with no chimneys, that means no open fires which is stupid and really bad, have the central heating on, and you may as well just set fire to ten pound notes and keep warm round them. Under the extractor fan in the kitchen though because of the lack of fireplaces.

Ah well it will be christmas before we know it, I sincerly hope i can avoid michael buble.

What i wont avoid though is the tremendous Ballet that is being shown..the russian state ballet company as well, most excellent.

Evening Rossy,

It is touch screen, just like a huge Iphone, my other half has an Iphone 4, and it's usability isn't far off! (yeah, touch-screen keyboard, but works well) Rossy in drag £100, epad £60, epad won lol!

Gaga xmas compo is a great idea, but I'm putting my efforts into (you guessed it) Hallelujah, gonna ask my neice to come and sing it, gotta do a xmas piece for YT, everyone on my YT are uploading their xmas offerings and I'm getting jelous!

oh yes it's cold lol, it is here also, us got heating on full, a toasty 23 degrees in here lool!

I'll spare you from a Bubble post, not a fan either...........instead....

Hi everyone! Thanks for the compliments on my postings! I figured you were working on Composition #2 Rossy.

Wayne, I'm writing this posting on my IPad. I'm interested in the Epad. Especially if it's cheaper. If you're just getting started I think you'll really enjoy it. There are some limitations, however. I sometimes find I can't view certain YouTube postings with My IPad. You may not encounter the problem. This never happens with my desktop computer.

Rossy, my other half had the same comment as Mrs R. did about the sound of the name, iPad. It does sound like a feminine product.

Well, I'm at work on my break. I going to make my way to the hot water dispenser for my cup of tea. I'll check in a little later before I head home.

Oh Rossy meant to ask, did you get the sheet music you wanted, is that what you meant "So, I hunted down the sheet music for something else entirely for christmas."

I see we posted at the same time Wayne. I hope practice went well. I'll be back in a bit.

Going ok, cheers Griffin, see you next time you need to change your Ipad, pmsl
