Originally East Yorkshire, now North-east Scotland,where it's dreich, to use the local term - grey, wet, melting snow and ice underfoot, mmm, lovely! Came back to singing after 30 years, having finally been told that, contrary to what my school music teacher said, I don't sound like Flamborough Foghorn!! Trying to get to grips with guitar and bodhran but need cast iron fingertips for the first, and a string attached to the beater for the second to stop me bouncing it off my head, the wall, etc. etc. - I guess there are those who will say give up, we don't need ANOTHER bodhran player, but it's fun! (I don't inflict either instrument on my friends!) nice to be here! madwaff
