It's the march of time. You are slowing down. Bit by bit you are finding reasons to spend ever more time at home. It's going to rain, it's too hot or cold, it's stupidly expensive, it's too much hassle.

You like music, why not utilise your increasing home time by learning to play a musical instrument to reproduce anything from Bach's Minuet in G Major to Benny Hill's The Fastest Milkman in the West and everything in between that you care to?
