One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last New Years day ,I went out to see off the beach in Goa and watched the dolphins play, that was really nice.I lived in Uganda for 3 months while I was a student at Glasgow School of Art, that was pretty cool and meeting Allan Bennet was a highlight

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach the basics on a guitar...and I mean the basics..Ive been messing about with the basics for years and still cant tune the damn thing!
