Where the hell have I been?

It's been a while since my last confession, well blog post anyway, but I have been very busy of late, cleaning out my old studio, buying more tools, and getting ready for easter so I can start really getting into my luthiering, plus so many other things that I can't keep up with them all.

So, Brexit once again has reared it's head and hopefully the government can get on with it and get us out of the shit club that is the EU, I have never met so many bad losers, i.e. those that voted remain and who seem hell bent on trying to put obstacles in the way, all I can say is "GET OVER IT", were leaving, move on or even better move out to somewhere in the EU if you love it so much, and stay there.

As a part of Brexit, Nicola Sturgeon 'The Septic Dwarf' is looking for another referendum on leaving the UK, what she has failed to see is the EU has already said that the chances of scotland as an individual getting in to the EU are zero, so if the Scots decide to leave us they will not benefit from any any deal we do, or with other countries outside the EU, and we will not give them anymore money, so if they vote leave on this they will lose big time, however I think we should have a vote to kick them out anyway.

​Although people would not know it to look at me, I have been rather unwell of late, not feeling like doing much or interacting with people which is a bit of an issue considering my job, however like I said they would never know, but sometimes because of my health issues I find it really hard to even get out of bed some mornings, the pain at time is just unbearable, but I will not give into it, but now I am over 60 I wonder if I will ever get better or is it downhill from here on in?  Only time will tell, and this is one of the reasons I have not been active in my posting, I just haven't felt up to it.
On a more positive note, I have now received all my tools for my workshop and really need to get on with setting it up, however, I do need help, so will be asking my son to join me over easter to get it cleaned and ready to go.

I also went to the Birmingham guitar show at the end of March, hoping to spend a fortune, but there was nothing there that ticked my fancy, no new guitar, or pedals, however I did leave with a very fine little amp from Backstair, links below, amazing little amp with all sorts of tech for me to play with in the future, however, not sure thats going to work as I can't play anymore? anyway, one of the main reasons I went was to hopefully meet Ben Crowe of Crimson Guitars, link below, but his stand was over run with people hoping to meet him also, never mind, maybe next time.

Anyway enough for now.
