So many things, so little time!

One of my 5-string Stewart banjos but which one.

One of my two cats but is it Tejitu or Tilahun but neither is very still unless they are sleeping?

One of my draft songbooks, either Pity the Downtrodden Landlord: The Housing and Neighborhood Organizing Songbook or the Ciceley Fox Smith Anthology?

A Shipyard amber ale or a Newcastle brown ale?

The F/C Anglo concertina or the G/D Anglo concertina?

Dried apricots or pistachio nuts?

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

All set out with the view from the family cabin in the background

1. A picture of my family

2. My Fiddle,

3. My big blue and white bread bowl, symbol of bread broken with friends, and the kindness of strangers (the hardware store I bought it from 25 years ago gave me a deal on it because I was poor and unemployed)

4. Hendrix the cat (oops, he probably just ran off to chase mice)

5. A hand knit shawl (I make them for a couple of local craft stores now)

6. A nice bottle of Cabernet.

1. Photo of family, including granddaughter to be born in June.
2. Hummingbird,(guitar) gift from my mother, St. Louise, Cook and Martyr.
3. Colt .45 automatic, because a .22 isn't loud enough.
4. Beat-up pennywhistle.
5. Micrometer, one inch or 25mm.
6. Program from " Land Of The Dragon", the first play I was in.
And I'd like Petunia The Wonder Dog in the family photo too.
I was going to include a Guinness, but I'll drink it instead.
Fair winds,
SKP
