Off walkabout
Time to go , so you won't here from me for a few weeks at least , I will be back to see family in Portugal (Coimbra) and I have a wedding to go to , as every Portuguese knows that means about 3 days of food and drink. No guitar for me , I don't have anything to do with the guitar on holiday , hence holiday. Although I know My brother has one at his place over there, and a Portuguese guitarra (double stringed bandurria type thing ) for some Fado if I need. I will also be up in the north (Guarda) and a few other places as well, not forgetting godparents who own a vineyard and wine label, .. I mean you have to go just to taste end be nice ( and spend a few days ) right ? If I have time , but i suspect I wont , I may try to get over to Spain to see friends in Montilla, Cordoba where I lived for so long . So I hope you all keep on picadoing ,Rasgueadoing, tremoloing, and golping, y bueno , me voy para viajar, la comida, el vino, arena, sol y esa tipo de cositas, espero que no engorda tanto así que puedo coger la guitarra cuando vuelvo
Anyway if anyone needs me I will be in a bar in the middle of this lot ...............Hasta la proxima

And Im back ... I forgot how hot and humid it is up is the mountains,,,. I will get my guitar out again soon, as i havent played for weeks now and I cut off all my nails before I left , which are just about back now , When I do this kind of thing I am always surprised at how the guitar sounds again , like as if it was new , and fresh , So i will have a look around and see what you guys have been up to in my absence ....
