...I'm off for an interview/chat at another local school this afternoon, our fellow Dolbearian pizza85 was teaching drums there but he can't do it next term and he's put my name forward as a replacement. It's just a couple of hours a week but it's another tiny foothold in the education system.
It's a slow business, this "becoming a multi-millionaire through teaching drums to kids" lark. 
Carry on.

Well, it's steady for a couple of hours a week during term, so it's not exactly Bob Diamond territory.
It's a secondary school, ages from 11 to seventeen or so.
