    The Wisdom of Children

    Hi Guys

    Felt like I'd dropped off the face of the earth for a while there Wanted to check in with you all, so I'm being very bad and using the work PC as we STILL don't have t'Internet at home - it's taking forever to get sorted!

    Anyway - we are getting really settled in now, and are almost done with the unpacking (it's taking ages too!). We are still fighting about where we want to hang the guitars, but I think that's almost decided

    I wanted to introduce you all to our neighbours:



    These nutters immediately start chasing after you whenever they see a bag because they think there's bread inside it for them! They've got much bigger since this pic was taken - however aren't anywhere near as scary as the full-size geese when they start chasing after you

    My sister, her husband and their daughter came round last night, and we'd broken the guitars out for a bit. After playing on the both the Sterling and the Albert Lee, my niece was watching her dad play the Sterling himself and proceeded to have a paddy because SHE wanted it back to play. When asked if she wanted the guitar instead of the bass because daddy was playing with it, she shook her head quite violently and insisted on the bass

    Don't she look cute?



    The kid clearly has taste

    However I think Paul now has the bug and wants to figure out how get a bass or guitar without my sister breaking both his legs!!!!

    Promise to keep in touch better until we get broadband back - I can't believe everything I've missed in teh last few weeks! I've missed this place, and I know Trev says he's missed me telling him about everything that's going on

    Hope you're all ok - we do miss you heaps!

    Azzy and Trev x

    Heyo Azzy! You're still alive.

    When I was playing for my church's youth group praise team, most of the kids that wanted to join the team were interested in playing bass. hmmmmmm

    lol rob thats the most wonderful cushion....mmm fuzzy.

    glad to know your niece has taste. all the cool kids play bass.

    i love the cute little goslings!! glad you are loving your place. the internet doesnt surprise me... one of the most important things ive learnt about england is that everything here takes twice as long to get done and costs three times as much.
    lets get together and make the grass grow.

    Good to hear from you Azzy and look at all the wild game in your yard, they're a little greasy, but a little salt and wine and they taste just fine!

    Azzy!

    Nice to see you are getting settled in!

    And also very nice to see the balls are safe and sound!
