I don’t think I’ve joined in with this challenge before, but the photoprompt took me back a bit so I thought I’d have a go.

It was very much a family affair with Alfred at the piano and Grace turning the sheeted music for him.
Gladys stood in what she hoped was a relaxed and confident pose as she began her first solo performance.
All went exceptionally well, no warbled notes or wrong chords, and at the end Gladys breathed a sigh of relief.
Her audience snorted and resumed sniffing their hind quarters.
Their afghan hound was such a lousy critic, but tomorrow it would be for real.

About pensitivity101
I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes!
In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too.
On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts.
From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives.
We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

Ha, well i the dog is happy with it, hopefully she’ll be okay! Good fun 🙂
Cute story! I loved it! She was singing for the dog who then returned to his usual “doggy” sniffing. Hahaha! Great story. Welcome to The FFfAW challenge! We are happy you have joined us.
Thank you so much!
Woof! What a great take. Love it.
My tale is called ‘One beautiful day’
Most entertaining Di, I hope the ‘real’ thing does go well.
lol cute story. Hope the others are more appreciative than the dog.
Maybe afghan’s don’t have such a good ear as collies……… Maggie loves classical music!
That is a tough audience. I think she’ll be ready.
