I will start ......
MIL rang last night all OK, but FIL had a bit of an incident in a couple of shops .... he really struggles to walk these days, so someone kindly gave him a motorised scooter, anyway he managed to destroy a display table in a book shop and a display in a shoe shop .... funny, but not funny if you get my drift .... I can imagine that the shop assistants weren't too amused ..... I bet he's banned from those stores now![]()
Just tidied around, not doing too much housework today, saving it for tomorrowas we have guests on Friday ... I am making a curry .... anyway todays entertainment will be a series of online guitar lessons ...... someone on PIO sent me a PM a few weeks ago (which I am eternally grateful for) of this guy who does free online lessons and they are great, I watch them through Apple TV, the signal from my iPad .... last night I learn't a Blues shuffle, and have started to learn how to play Hurt by Johnny Cash, also tried to play Polly by Nirvana, but was having trouble with the D bar chord, OH did it really easily, so being quite competitive I can't have him playing better than me
so I shall be practising Polly until my fingers bleed
Also had a guitar lesson last night, I have never really been very good at tuning my guitar by ear, I cheat and use a tuner, but my tutor taught me, so today I shall be practising that too ..... also learning the notes on the fret board which is quite complicated, as long as I remember that there is no B# and E# I should be OK .......
Not yet .... But I will ....
Talking of curry, the rice is ready .... we are having last nights curry warmed up .... It was top class ....
i will do a document (pages) of recipes and how I do mine .... I make my own paste .... Actually I have the curry bible by pat chapman, it was on special from the book depository when I looked the other week ..... The one I posted on PIO today is one i made up myself ... When I have a minute I will do it .... And email it over to you ....
how do you yours?
How long has your daughter been learning? Acoustic or electric ..... Do you play? It's a cool hobby, not good on the fingers though, hard work, but worth it .... My oh said he is noticing improvements in my playing .... Just tell her to practice lots and enjoy ...... If she needs any help just ask, I'm no expert and still sound pretty crap, but I know a lot of chords, just learning different techniques now ...... www.justinguitar.com
Tell her to look at the site above, so much going on from beginners through to expert .... It's great .....
Well I am full of a cold again ...... Oh brought this one home last week ...... Started bothering me Thursday / Friday, worked Saturday actually it wasn't too bad then, but today it is really bad, CBA doing anything, sneezing, coughing, spluttering, banging head ..... Time to do absolutely nothing and try to get rid of it .......
