Hi Guys
My reasons for living are: (in no particular order), playing guitar, tending my family (wife, two children, two dogs and two cats)and indigenous gardening (two acres of land - keeps me fit). Started playing in the early 70's. when I did my teething on Hendrix, Led Zep, Budgie, Robin Trower, Pink Floyed etc. I presently have three guitars: A Morris classical, Fender Strat and a Yamaha F400 folk. The Fender and Yamaha have been locked away.I am now concentrating on Flamenco and Classical styles - hard work when you are used to playing through an amp. There is a long story behind this.

Personal Details.
Have been a vegetarian " since Pa fell off the bus". I am self-employed. (I have never earned a cent from playing music). Born flower child - some things never change. Sponge for learning - I am like a kid in a candy store, anything will do if it makes sense. Sport - naaa! I did martial arts for about three years, got my brown belt but forced to give up due to an injury. O.k at long distance running because I am built like a racing snake - there is more fat on a butcher's pencil. So you see I am a lazy sod. T.V. is out - only watch National Geographic, History and Animal channels - the rest , take a guess. Politcs and Religion - believe in God - I see his workings in my environment. Politics - you have seen how the world is run - go figure it out yourself. My maxim - do the best you can and then set the standard one notch higher and so on. Isnt that what music is all about.
