Well, what can I say...I love singing, always have. I started playing guitar and songs popped into my head so I wrote them down and decided to start gigging with them. I have been lucky enough to play in various lovely venues in Edinburgh, Glasgow, I've done wee tours up north, played in Italy. I've shared the stage with many talented folk. I've played Leith Festival, The Wickerman Festival, I've sung in ma hoose, my friends hooses, in the park - wherever you can take a guitar. I've done backing vocals, duets. I take any opportunity to open my mouth and let the notes flow. Thanks to all who appreciate and support x
I'm playing at The Wickerman Festival 2008

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
