Hi Richard, thanks for adding me I liked On Georgian Bay best. My GF is from Georgia she sings and I play guitar and piano. I'm not as good as you are at guitar, those compositions are lovely. Take care, maybe we will see you in Glasgow one of these days?

Such beautiful music, Rich; a welcome, refreshing alternative to the norm!

I hope you're enjoying your weekend; although you'd be better off in Spain than

England at the moment...thank you for the friendship. Best wishes, Julia x
Menk!

Hi Rich
Thanks for the request, I believe you were previously on my friends list, but had problems with my profile and lost a few people along the way.
Glad to renew our acquaintance.  I can't make it on 13 December, but wish you a great successful night.
Best Wishes
