BBC Northern Dance Orchestra

Wilson is in the conservatory playing his Kathryn Tickell CD, and wondering whether it would be suitable as Birthing Music for his friend Ms Rowena's baby. Some of the tracks are mournful and haunting, while others are quite foot-tappy, and he's not sure whether either would be appropriate.

I asked him what his Mum, Mrs Vermilingua, used to listen to when she was giving birth, and he said, 'The BBC Northern Dance Orchestra mostly. Oh and Metallica!'

'She had very catholic taste!' I observed.

'They were the only two records we had when I was little,' he explained, 'the Dance Band and the Thrash Metal.'

I just nodded, but reflected that being born to the sounds of Anthrax probably explained quite a lot about Wilson's family.

    1. Thanks a lot for reading it! Please tell your friends, as it is Wilson's dream to become "As popular as Hallowe'en — but less scary!"
      Of course, it's also his dream to become a millionaire, but let's start small and work our way up...
