About Me

Hi, thanks for visiting my page. When I uploaded my first song 'when the wind blows' I felt nervewracked but excited about it. Since then I have been overwhelmed by the support and encouragement I have received from all you lovely myspacers...thank you. I have also a guitar improvisation track which was intended to form the basis for a NEW SONG!!! Well, I have finished that song now titled 'fields of blue' .... I still feel nervous but also determined. It's about time I wrote something different here so I'll just say that I intend to write some blogs soon and put more photos up, got to do one about the Skye Festival, Bob Dylan concert, barge (ok canalboat!) holiday, and of course the fabulous trip to Kinvara, Galway to see the amazing John Conneely and Jon Redfern. Wish I could write another song too...............
