28 Nov 12 - 05:09 AM (#3443513) Subject: RE: Joe Brown: ukulele album From: Johnny J I must seek this album out as I've always enjoyed Joe's music and I'm also a late convert to the ukelele.......Just purchased a "real" one. :-) |

Maybe they don't pay tax but they've saved me a few bob which I can now spend on ale brewed here which will be taxed rather highly. So, I'm still doing my bit. :-) I'm pleased that Radio Four is loud and clear in "The Dam", Phil. |
