My tone is improving! I got a really nice clear tone out of my flute today. I found the flute is an excellent method of relaxation when my nerves are starting to play up, so I've just put in about half an hour of practice in my break. One of my flute books has lots of technical stuff in it (how to breath, posture, etc. etc.), which annoyed me when I started and I sort of ignored those bits, but actually they are quite helpful.
I just wish there was someone else in the house who enjoyed playing an instrument, as I have quite few duets (though rather basic ones), which I would really like to try playing with someone else. May be I can get my mummy to get her recorder back out when I'm at home ^_^ or possibly even my dad to accompany me on the guitar!
