(Also, can just anyone start a Bunbury thread or do you have to be a Weighty Feminist? Apologies if so, I will retreat tugging my forelock.)

Someone mentioned the cornet. Can I bagsy the kettle drum?

When we're all in the gulags, we'll need to resort to body percussion because we probably won't be allowed instruments until we're educated.

I’m in.

It is amazing the difference that blind auditions make in increasing the numbers of women in orchestras. Caroline Criado Perez mentioned it in her excellent book Invisible Women

I can half heartedly kick the drums too until the proper drummer shows up.

I'm pretty jazzy on the recorder.

Ah good thinking.

I'll play the triangle.
