So...my wife buys me my first Uke for Christmas and for a few months it sits in our bedroom. I don't know why I didn't pick it up initially but I think it was something to do with never having been able to get to grips with the guitar despite trying on and off for years.
March arrives and on a day off from work I pick up my Uke and beginners guide and 'have a go'. And it's great! Two months, and lots of practice, later and chords are sticking in my memory and I'm learning songs, joining uke sites and having a great time. Even considering attending my local uke group meeting.
Then two weeks ago I fall downstairs and have to have my collarbone pinned together and mash up the fingers of my left hand. Now in an immobiliser sling for 6 weeks after the op! If no complications then hopefully full recovery in three months after physio.
Just thought I'd post this as feeling down at the minute and could do with some cheering up from fellow uke fans!
(Above all typed slowly with one finger!!!).
