Oh Joe, you are too kind. Thank you for coming out! My music is personal, and I have held it close for so long... I did not expect the emotions that come along with amazing friends going out of their way to support me. It was so fulfilling to have you all there. thank you.
Great to cross Scrabble paths, kudos to a world class musician. I will continue to play these tunes! And will you please arrange the next triple word score? Cheers from the hinterland - Pauline/Sleeps Six
