I did another of the workbooks ( this time volume III ) and spent quite a bit messing around with new ideas for the new songs and stuff. This is the fun bit, just messing around with music ideas, getting together a set of funky things that work together! One strange thing is that when I finished the Phonics CD last week, I tidied up the room I’d been working in. But when I came to record the quizzes for the Workbook, the room is far too echoey!! I guess tidying up is not the way to go.

I also bought a DVD player so I could copy the Genki English DVD onto VHS to demo in the bookstores. Isn’t DVD so cool!! Just the whole remote control navigating thing is fantastic, it’s like having a massive high quality internet at your fingertips!
