    I started a new hobby today! (Guitar)

    Learning on a Taylor.. that's impressive! I've been looking at a 410CE for a number of years.. I learnt on a cheap old acoustic with an action like a bow & arrow! That was in my early teens I've now had 30-odd birthdays since! .No more gigging these days (only family/friends parties & BBQs!)...

    Self Portrait Challenge

    Sombre

    Don't agree that the subject's face is expressionless.

    Grrrr facebook people!

    Facebook is, indeed, what you make of it. I'm hardy prolific on it but it does have its positives.

    Thanks for the steer - I've just ordered a large poster as a 'test' as I'm looking at various suppliers to get a number of things printed in the coming weeks. As you say, well worth giving them a try at £8. Cheers!
