Thanks Sarah - I'm going to re-record the video of Wild Mountain. I knew I had a Zoom Handy recorder lying about - never thought to use that, your video sounds ace. My video was annoying me because it just didn't sound right. I will use the zoom and the video recorder together.
Must have over done the training last week, I'm full of man flu - panicking a bit for this marathon - been training for months and it hits me this week! Should have realised the danger, my wife has had a chest infection for the past 10 days. So a combo of too much training and catching it off her. Still I'm determined to be there at the start - besides they give a free pint of beer to all finishers!!!!
Capricho - oooh very ambitious. And why not. It's fantastic. Looking at what you have achieved so far, I dont think your years away - but if you want some inspiration here is a link https://youtu.be/BJKYjXe6ACE . She's 7 years old! One day I will attempt it - not just yet - there so much lovely music out there in the meantime.
I have Torija under my fingers (almost ) I struggle with Measure 14 - the last 4 notes just does not sound right yet. Also Measure 6 & 22 - the last partial barres in the measures (they are the same more or less) - again I struggle to make them sound well. These are my red dangers spots - something I really need to work on. It's all problem solving I suppose. INstead of just working on those spot I tend to carried away and play the parts I can - that is counter productive and wastes time and effort - I need to be more disciplined and focussed.
If `I see you and recognize you on Sunday i will say hello (only if its at the start) if its at the end I will be too tired to walk or say anything!
