    There is only so many wannabe young male "musicians" people can listen to.
    I was thinking more the Jazz Flute - also, I only just fit into the "young" category and am rapidly heading toward middle aged!

        I'm on my first (and only) marriage. What age were you when you were married the first time?
        …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

          Too young. I should have waited until I was 147. And got written consent from both parents.....

            My philosophy when playing guitar:

            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                I think it's very unfair of you to pick on Brillo, just because he's screwed up his life. He has some redeeming features (and before you all start, I enjoy his friendly inquiries into weekend plans).

                  Indeed. I was stupid enough to get married. And instead of taking the sensible decision of walking away from the kids I stood by them.

                  You have one redeeming feature. Everyone else on CUK has someone to look down on.

                    I admire your spirit for one so down on his luck. Keep it up!
