Do you ever get the urge to do something strange? I've been thinking about buying a xylophone for a while. There's something about the noise that really gets me. It's kind of soft 'cause it's wooden, it's rounded like a tree and it feels like it pats your shoulder instead of chilling your spine like metal instruments do. There are only two people I know of who play it, Patrick Moore and Evelyn Glennie. He's an inspirational cultural icon and she's deaf but still bangs out a cracking tune. Name one instrument that could compete with that dynamic duo? Imagine going home tonight and not switching on the telly for a change but sitting down and trying to play a little tune on your xylophone. Who cares what happens on Albert Square or in the Big Brother house? You're sitting, concentrating and smiling. ''Get up to much last night?'' ''Yes, actually, I wrote a wee song on my xylophone''. Watch their faces as they pass from speechlessness to ridicule to open contempt in a bitter attempt to hide their jealousy and resentment. You've broken free, you've got a life, you've got a brain, you're a character, you desire-embracer you. Go for it, go home, do something strange and smile.
