Hi friends! As some of you know, we were in Chicago this last week. The last night we were there, Ashley had her phone stolen while we were walking around town. A little later that night, a homeless man named BJ helped us get it back. He was a forklift driver, but had a bad car accident that gave him seizures for a while. He couldn't operate the forklift, and lost his job. When he couldn't make rent, he and his family were evicted from their apartment, and they now live under an overpass in downtown Chicago. We started a GoFundMe drive to try to help him out. If you'd like to hear the whole story about how we met him and got Ashley's phone back and all that, or if you'd like to help out, you can click here. https://www.gofundme.com/help-bj-his-family Thanks, guys. Have a great night.

Just sliced open my finger on the roof. Not going to be playing for a little while. What a week!

Mum just told me that a large and light box just got delivered to her house. Could it be that the anniversary present I got for Tiffany arrived ON our anniversary? We'll most likely be unboxing a new uke soon. With a bit of luck will show it off this season, or if not, then definitely next...

robinboyd said:

Absolutely. Also nervous because it may have been damaged in transit. I'm dreading opening the box to find that it's been destroyed. Oh well, here goes nothing. I'm off to pick it up now.

And it survived without a scratch! I'll show you all soon. Not sure if I'm going to wait for these strings to settle or change them straight away. I have a strong dislike for the current strings. The uke itself seems great, though.
