One of my co-workers is going away on his honeymoon in less than a month, so my new boss "strongly urged" me to spend the next two weekends on a QA team to make sure I'm up to speed on the system by the time he leaves. This means I'll miss Coronation.
Normally this wouldn't bother me, but I was expecting to have the time to rehearse with the Calais Consort for our upcoming gig. And to share some vin blanc cassis. (I wonder if that stuff goes bad.)
