   When Charlie was about four, he got some boxes and made his own drum set. I have a cute video of him playing. Not quite so loud as the real thing.

       Just saw your PM on BBC news saying he was going to the pub on the 12th. I’m guessing you are going too.

   While i love drums well played, random crashing and banging is a bit much. Fun story!

   I love this post, it brought a smile to my face! I thought briefly of the noise my children make anything they take a musical interest which made me smile even more. Thank you for sharing this fun Letter D post.

   I have had a couple of friends with small children who complained about family members buying them drum sets as gifts… The intentions were not clear 😀

   That’s exactly how I think I sound when I try to play the drums – on the kid’s toy set of course. For some reason they always want me to stop….

    You surely had a lot of fun with that!! My son learns the keyboard, but most of the time he is experimenting with various tunes and notes and beats on the highest volume. It is just as harsh on our senses as a drum would be.
