Thank you J. It's my pleasure to do these and it improves me as a musician to do collabs like this. 

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Also, I'm determined to do collabs with more CBN folks in the upcoming year. A J.Rob Jim M duet would be fun!

Ah Jamie, in my mind you were a roundly dashing figure as you pranced the mazurka. Now tho' I believe you may have been the jester rather than King Henry!

Well, as have always said, if the tudor cap fits, wear it :) btw, did ah "fill out" the tights OK?! Well, its not MY imagination, Jim lad, so had to ask ;)

Thanks Jamie. I told Paul this reminded me of a Hobbitt love song song but now I've got a mental picture of you dressed as Henry the VIII dancing in his castle. Thanks for that!

Jack ( or Jim) of all trades, Mr Morris  :)  Enjoyed it, and made me want to get up and dance a quadrille, (4 times!)  But  if you joined in, Jim, we could call it a "Morris Dance" ;)

Comment by Jim Morris on December 18, 2015 at 6:13am

Thanks Paul! Now I have to make one!

Comment by Jim Morris on December 18, 2015 at 1:05am

Thanks RTZ. Your right about the holes, it's as critical as fret placement. I used Flutomat to get measurements for the holes but it still took some adjusting to get it near to being in tune. 

Cool picture! I need to find out what that long skinny bowed instrument is.
