Private Notes
The weekly brass band rehearsal is an enjoyable, light-hearted occasion. Then Mathew, the conductor, introduces James, a newcomer to the village, who is an enthusiastic bandsman from the north, where they do these things properly.
Julie, a young woman seeking an escape from the encroaching drudgery of domestic life, and Maureen, her frumpish friend, prepare for a talent show at a seedy club.
Maureen has been faithfully attending the slimmers’ club for months. Now the weeks of endless crispbreads have paid off – but is her optimism misplaced?
Frances is 28, single and happy, despite ritual interrogations from her family as to why she’s not married. Then she meets Jim, and finds she has decisions to make.
