News from the Workshop

Once, before i started my blog, whitch has the same name as the title of this thread, I posted a some threads here with the same tiltle as here. So I thought it would be a good round of by using it again.
I´m happy to denounce that I have closed my business here in Spain. Never again.
I will maybe or hopefully open up again one day in the future in Denmark but it´ll be a completely different concept.
I´m also happy to say that I leave with peace in mind. I´m not angry at anyone or anything. I just need a change in my life. I cannot continue the way things are. Impossible.

I will, one velvet morning when I´m straight, (Lee Hazlewood) come back on foroflamenco. I have no problems with the forum (me thinks

)

2 photos: top, 2 weeks ago when I finished the last guitar (see blog) tripod, sunny day long exposure. Bottom, 20 minuts ago, handhold and flash. Geee its looks ugly.

Enjoy life, play a lot of music and be kind. There´s no need to ask me things right now, I´m to busy packaging to log in.

Hope you find your muse in Denmark, Anders. I stated before and will state it again, you have been one of the voices of reason on the Foro. I have enjoyed your posts and have learned from them.

Adios, Amigo. Buena Suerte!

Cheers,

Bill

Anders,

I know things are almost certain to work out well for you in Denmark. May it be sooner, rather than later.

I, with many others, will miss you calm, reasonable and well informed voice here. Please check in from time to time.

Sad to hear Anders, the guitar you built for me (numero 130) will be treasured the more. I really have appreciated all your inputs and knowledge you have imparted on my humble existence.

Good luck in Denmark.
