22nd March -Musical spoons

Topic of the Day - Music/Rhythm 81/365

I searched my house for something musical and there was nothing. It got me thinking about my parents and how they would make their own music and have a party at the drop of a hat!! My Mum played the piano (self taught and couldn't read music) but she was always there at family gatherings "tinkling the ivories". Our next door neighbours would come round and Mr Brown would "play" the spoons. He thought it was very musical!! So here is my attempt at the "spoons" - I don't think it will catch on!! LOL!!
Smashing Pam. There was always at least one avid spoon or knuckle bone layer at any family gathering!
