I totally, utterly empathise with your situation, being in pretty much the same one myself, especially resisting the "rescue me!" phone call. And very much the stairs & the mash & gravy.

Hiya Snaily, thanks for your comments.

The movement which most people regard as being the Moonlight Sonata is indeed rather easy (as piano pieces go). The other movements (it's a whole sonata after all!) are somewhat less so. :-D
