About Me

My Interests

Everyone I've already met again. I am the world's worst at keeping in touch ... :-)

I've always been a creative sort  of a bloke. I remember building my first drumkit out of boxes and buckets in our garage, a computer out of cereal packets and a barbeque out of bricks. You may t...

Once more from the top ....

These boots weren't made for walking ...

What are the odds .....

Well, I've got my half-a-guitar and I've just bought a neck off some bloke on Ebay. By rights, I now have everything I need to build the perfect instrument, except I have sneaking suspicion that it's ...
