Hi Les. Just wanted to drop a note on your e-desk and say thanks for all the encouragment, inspiration and really helpful video lessons you do. You give without thought to yourself and that's a rarity in the world outside these wonderful CBN walls. You're a star and I appreciate you immensely.

Bear.

Thanks for your comment on my latest vid Les. My girlfriend's impromptu recorder playing seemed to work surprisingly well.

Hi Les. Thanks for the link to the Videos. I looked at one and thought that you looked familiar and then realised that one of your videos is on Chickenbone John's page. Let's hope we can use the group to keep to "bridge the distance" between those down here who are a bit spread out. There seems to be a higher concentration of makers/players up north.

All the best. John
