| Introduction | 47...and counting. 5ft 7". One son. Life would be nothing without music - I love it so. I like to talk about it too hence the motivation for this blog. On one side: Singer/lyricist/session musician. Would like to be able to play the guitar better than I currently do - hope springs eternal. On the other side: Bespoke women's accessories (customized belts, statement necklaces etc) working in leather (dedicated blog to follow). Eternal optimist. Always wear black and gold. Analyze, philosophize. Penchant for the darker, esoteric and the not so obvious side of life. Retro collector/seller. Unashamed computer geek. |
