Thanks for the picture comments!
I am indeed a lefty; thought I'd be awkward, you know :) That guitar is the second guitar I ever owned, it's knackered but for some reason I've still kept it!

Thankyou!..it does take a rather long time to get to the stage of knowing oneself...especially if one has had a painful past..or a fucked-up childhood,etc

...i dont do much else apart from music...and im addicted to trying to improve it!!

I see you shine when you busk GAM!!...so you must know yourself to!!..to some degree :-)

Keep Pickin'

Great music GAM I'd like to hear more,
even better have a jam with you

You should get a gig at the Woodford Festival.
