...and I've just cut my lip. I'll be playing the Last Post and Rouse at a bonfire event but mouthpiece now covered in blood 😦

Got a few hours for it to heal but I imagine it'll open up again.

I was trying to swallow a pill from a foil packet without having to touch it with my hands, which were dirty. Feel like a bloody fool (unsurprisingly).

Oh well, these things happen

Edit: it went pretty well. I fluffed a couple of notes but doubt many people noticed. Got a round of applause which was unexpected but very welcome. Honour to do it
