Hi all you folks/folkie's from around the world. I guess I fit the description of near 50 with grown up and not so grown up kids.Nicknamed "Viking". Lived in SE London 'til '72, moved to York. Trained as a teacher in Ripon.Have done lots of other jobs.Moved to Huddersfield in '82(Teach in a special school in Cleckheaton-I'm a bit fick,so excuse the poor spellings!Got a good sense of humour-need it in teaching now-a-days!!!!) Try to play the guitar!! Can't read them funny dots on paper but can pick things up reasonably well.Got a 12,a 6-both acoustics.Also a couple of electro acoustics and electric "strat clone" etc. Play a bit of Bodhran, mouth harp and banjo. Very occasionally get to sing- Looking for some one to work with possibly or just jam with - voice and fingers going! Male or female. Used to "do a bit" in London late 60's.Dylan, Donovan,Al Stewart,Simon and Garfunkel, MacColl,Rembourne, Paxton etc. Also into more modern stuff like Robb Johnson, Ian Bruce, Viki Clayton.Wide range of influences especially Irish.I Like Metal (Can't play it) and motorbikes. Still got the long hair and get to folk and other gig's. Blackstone Edge and Al stewart last month.(Rock bitch-next week-Please don't ask!)Cleckheaton has a great folk festival each year. I've got "hooked" onto Mudcat since I discovered it a few weeks back.Well I guess that sums me up sort of or else you'be asleep. Cheers-Viking.
