Clare_Bear's smiley happy thread

Today, having just got back from sailing on the solent, I am getting ready to move to London town next week (OH MY FUCKING GOD it's in a week)

This is a good thing, because it will be fun. As long as I don't die of malnutrition. Or of getting shot in Kilburn.

I've just accepted a job offer and resigned from my present job, always find resigning strangely liberating. New package is a good 50% increase. Well pleased.

Excellent! I think that makes it GAS o'clock

In fiddle-land, I'm picking up the new car tomorrow, then flying home for a wedding on Friday. Can't wait to see some rain again!!

Yes, I think I do need a new-job-purchase, you are a wise man. As for rain, we've changed things around a bit since you've been away, hope you don't mind, but we now go for extended periods of sunshine with the occasion tropical downpour. It's working quite well.

@Bigjon is borrowing my Strat for a jam night tomorrow. It'll be nice to hear it played by a proper guitarist/musician

We're going to be in Edinburgh, so I have high hopes. Anythign less than 25 degrees would be wonderful..!

Bigjon played my Strat, Sarah, this evening. I will say it was awesomes to hear what my guitar sounds like as a listener, rather than concentrating on what's being played.:D

 

 

It was also great to hear it being played properly, for a change 

>:D<

viz

Lol - and how was the evening in general? Did you play?

mike_l

@Viz ; T'was a good evening all round. Yep I played, less badly than last week too. I was happy with the second solo I played. It was certainly better than the first one, well less jazz notes anyway....

Having Jon on guitar and Kev on bass definitly helped

>:D<

viz

Nice one!

mike_l

You were right about having a good bassist, although having a good other guitarist helps too

viz

It most certainly does!

I had a very lovely birthday, yesterday. We went to watch a free polo event.... think horses not mints ;-) They also had an awesome medieval jousting display.

In volkswagens??

That would have been ace :-)

Just back from taking the dogs for a run in the back garden *...

 

 

* Technically, it's the farmer's field the other side of the back garden fence, but we don't mind sharing as long as he keeps it mown nicely.
