Haven't you also lost something else Craigy??? Your memory!! :tongue:
Maybe you should try regression therapy & have a vast amount of Brandy. This will help you to get back to the "place" where you were when you lost your voice!! ;)

Hehehe, theres always one isnt there? ;)
Still, atleast it was an ok place for the first ever SPAS committee meeting :p
Getting the principles established was very important, obviously :p
So, If youre reading this, and are:
*A soprano player
*A little thick
*Look good dressed as a Woman
*Want a laser target to go on your soprano, to make sure you really do get that awkward person on the front row.....
(*Rubbish at keeping secrets?)
Youre just what we want :p

At least they had a bar/restuarant and more than one toilet! which is more than the Town Hall has got.

Didnt know you ever had it to lose Craig...
Half the band - well actually nearly all of the band got lost on the way to Belvedere - I was there before them as I had to attend the draw and as they arrived there were various stories of getting lost, confused, bandsmen passing each other and blamed the maps that were provided! At least there was plenty of time and we didn't get the number one draw!!!

Ha ha ha! :-)
The same thing happened to me at Butlins this year! It is apparantly a curse borne by the most joyous members of a band! ;-)
I found resting my voice the best cure. Some suggested gargling with salt water, but I couldn't face it. Adding to insult I was also got a cold just after that slowed my recovery.
Truth is, it will come back in time - this will be quicker if you rest your voice. Sadly, I couldn't that much due to work and it took a full two weeks to come back fully, but 3 days for me to make myself heard.
My sympathies go to you - just make sure you rest your voice prior to the finals as I think it might happen again there!

Hi Diane, thanks for the advice!
i've tried to rest it, but its just not possible (all those that know me will know how true that is!!).
It has started to come back though, but with a youth band rehearsal tomorrow, I'm dont envisage having much left by the time the senior band arive!
Guess Roger will have a quiet practice for once!!!!
Oh boy do i hope to be losing it after Harrogate!!!!!
Take care.

If your throat is sore as well, try a tube of salt and vinegar pringles to numb it. Lemon and honey in hot water, rest and lots of sign language or writing notes. Patience is hard but necessary I'm afraid.

lol I like the pringles idea!!!!!
I dont ave any here, but i am munching on pickled onions with hopefully the same resolution!!!
as for the silent bit, you should know me by now!!!!
not so silent craigy!
P.S
it was really good to see you again, sorry i didn't get to say goodby.
six pints

sorry, I'm afraid that whiskey is the best remedy! I lost mine at national lifesaving champs last week and still a bit croaky, but it doesnt hurt anymore!!

Craig if it helps mate;
i did not get my voice back properly till thursday 15th after our win in the 1st section last saturday
Even though you beat my band at the areas, I might be able to help you - kind soul that I am.
Try the following - it works for me!
Take some fresh ginger and a couple of cinammon sticks and boil them in a saucepan of water for about 15 minutes. Strain the liquid into a big mug and add a good dollop of honey. Stir it in then add a glug or two of whiskey (or brandy. Whatever floats your boat!)
Drink this for about two days and you should find that it eases your throat. It might even help you talk again...
