TBH I think its gonna be on the back burner for a while-my 'workshop' is so full of toys, I mean tools; I can hardly move. Having a new large outdoor one built in the spring-cant come soon enough. But hey ho, more time to come up with killer stuff for 'rolling out the barrel.' Eh?
lol, yeah I think the kebab shop did well out of us lot! Ha, no pressure just have fun and then film a bit of it...doesn't have to be perfect to go on here!! Glad you saw a bit of Cambridge, it's a beautiful City : -)
Your photo confused me. I only worked out who you were on the grounds of your wife's fiddle. Did she get a new bow?
I just discovered that there's a fella literally round the corner from me who builds violins, I'm planning to drop round, introduce myself and see his work. Maybe I'll make a cigar box fiddle too!

Good to meet you both yesterday!....expecting to see a video from you soonish : -)
Hi - I really enjoyed the evening - it was nice to see people play CBG live rather than a youtube video.
No-doubt I'll see you at the next event
cheers

Hey Bri,
I like your distressed box, fiddle gits and all your crapola.
Oh dear, I didn't realise it was so valuable! Has she started playing with open tunings on the violin like Ben Prestage?

Hello Brian.
I will give her a ring tonight or tomorrow if that is OK. I hope the insurance company settles up without problems. Mind you, you have many witnesses.
All the best.
John
