In New Quay Wales, went Dolphin watching with Son’s family ( Grandchildren 3 and 5 ) and daughter. Most enjoyable. Good weather and Wales is greener than home. Wonder why that is.

I’ve never been to New Quay, but it’s supposed to be nice. Closest I got was about 60 miles away when I spent 18 months in hospital with TB, as a child near St Brides
Playing music sounds good John. I think we like seeing your videos.

Here’s an instrumental I wrote in 2014. It was meant to be a song and eventually did write some lyrics.
I just like the US scenery l used for the video. Quite peaceful

That’s so lovely. How gifted are you.?
The scenery is beautiful…
John n I were meant to motor in America at some point this year. He’d been many times and loved it and wanted to show me places off the beaten track…Sadly that’s not happening now…
Onwards n upwards though even though today is not a great day up to now.
It’s one full of memories and usually they make me happy n smile but for some reason I feel sad just now but at least I know it will pass.
Out now to water n feed the plants…
Have a good time later playing your music

Thanks Mitzi. Not sure if I’m gifted, I have just been playing a long time.
Such a shame 
that you weren’t able to experience America together, but you are still young enough to see some of that great country.
I’ve been a few times to places like Boston, Baltimore, Washington, Vail, San Francisco and New York, but would’ve loved to see the Grand Canyon and Arizona. I am too old now.
You reminded me, must water the plants. I am not going out tonight now. The chap I go with can’t make it and I don’t fancy driving, so will catch up on sleep.
Take care

Love it John, and the video. Back in the day, Hank Marvin was my hero. I think he would have been impressed by your Tomahawk.

That is lovely John! My husband was a musician and loved the US. We took a train from Chicago to San Francisco once. We had some adventures!
I also need to water my plants. It’s already very hot today

Beautiful music it speaks for itself without lyrics.

Nope cried again today. Made myself go for a coffee, just to sit in some company, then a couple about mine and Sue’s age. They looked so happy. Just hit home.

I did write some lyrics because I was involved in the tragic Harry Dunn campaign to get the justice they deserved.
My two oldest grandchildren went to school with Harry and lived in the same village.
I only had a small part doing some videos and a BBC interview but was furious how that American woman evaded proper justice.
Anyway my voice didn’t do this any good and I prefer the instrumental

Not bad for 59 
, but to be honest I would have loved her no matter what she looked like.
It was her first and only trip to the North America. I wish we could go back again
Hi Nightwish1. I am currently sitting in our local M and S coffee shop watching the world go by as I couldn’t bear to be in the house without my husband. But it’s as you say happy couples and I am on my own so I know how you feel.

Well tomorrow is my 69th birthday, will be the second birthday i haven’t woke up to a gorgeous card & gift on my bedside table. Miss Peter so much, last year as he had died in the April, i told family & friends i didnt want to celebrate my birthday.If im honest i dont feel like celebrating anymore, but my daughter said Dad would not want you not to celebrate it. So at the weekend i am going to their house for family lunch, possibility a barbecue if weather nice. But wont be the same without Peter.
