    Fewer entries this time comparatively, I'm guilty too. Your lessons scared them away, Olly.

    Wow congrats everyone on all the brilliant entries - made voting really tough this month.


    I ended up going with:


    Gumby's String Theory - I love the flow and the message within, reminds me of my mum.

    obi_have's Screetching and Stomping Lessons - this had me giggling all the way through. My man is a guitarist and I listen to him playing the most beautiful tunes, but I can only imagine what it once sounded like when he was starting out

    Fuhrer's Doctor - just too funny. It brought back memories of when I did actually attend my lectures. I never really made it through them, sleep and I were close friends during those times


    Congrats again to everyone!
