How do you eliminate stress at a time like that?

You have been in my prayers and you will continue to be. I mentioned you to my kids they other day, so they are probably praying too.

Take care and hope fully you will be on the mend soon.

There you go David.

Uh, I sound like Mondale with that "There you go" statement.

Computers can be quite the pain. I just built a new one, because my old one is pushin up the daisies.

Thanks

I enjoyed that greatly. Was a wee bit confused on the talky bits, but that is just my ignorance coming in to play.

Thanks again.

I have noticed that people have been good about not showing too many sets here. But I love this set. It is quite amazing looking to me. I know the neck is quite long, but hey. I happen to be a Wooff fan. Geoff made this set for Ronnie Wathen and it is pitched in B. This was based upon another set. I...

Hi Patrick

Have you decided not to add keys to that chanter? Which I think is for the best.

Maybe some day you will be able to obtain a Williams Chanter with more keys.

Well, there goes the practice time.

Congratulation on the new addition to the family.

My son just had his birthday yesterday. We celebrate it a few weeks early though.

Take Care

Hi David I agree with the consensus. If you want to write a book, do so. I had intended, when I was in college (25 years ago) to be an author. I have had many new story ideas lately and my wife has been telling me to get to it. I occasionally start to write bits. Sometimes you do need others to give...
