OMG OMG OMG OMG.... he has let me know it's ready to be uplifted!! I'm seriously fizzing, eh; he reckons its a good 'un! He won't send me pictures and he wants to see my reaction on first sight....

You know, he's one of those blokes one feels honoured knowing; a real gentleman, and a gentleman, what's more, who is charging me about a third of what the job is worth...

... the Aussies have a phrase to describe a bloke like this, but I won't use it in polite company; perhaps Don could tell y'all, as he's an Aussie and therefore uncouth enough to say such things!! :D

Tuesday, my urchins..... till Tuesday! :hyper:

quartet of 4 old men + 1 young lady

Don't know if I've posted this before. It's a cellphone-recording of a Joss Stone song, performed by the "Boogie Blokes", a fun project for gigging and jamming occasionally. The young girl was asking to sing a song or two with us and we been rehearsing this song at the soundcheck only. Turned out pretty well... :)

I'm here! Occasionally! Sometimes!

Loving the color, looking forward to the reveal, and anxious to actually get MY 325 finished!
