It's amazing how friendly everyone is when you're strumming away! As you do in country England when it snows, I went for a walk through the village today to see what was happening. Just on a whim, I decided to take my ukulele with me.
Amongst the many interesting people I met on my walk, I spoke with this elderly fella, who came up to me to spin a yarn or two about ukulele playing.
He told me he'd been playing for decades, that he had an old Martin ukulele at home, how he was happy to see a "younger fellow" playing the uke and how he met with a group of old friends in a local pub to play every now and then. Never knew!
We had a good chat. He had a quick strum on my Bowley, but didn't like my "backwards lefty stringing." Hehe! Although he worked out a few upside down chords and sung we a song. Then I continued on, content in the knowledge that the ever humble ukulele had spread some good vibes to a snow covered England today!
