It was 5pm on a Sunday when the thought hit me, Its sunny outside...
I was packed for a campout, Ramona had a full tank of fuel & we were rolling by 6pm. I had no idea where I was heading but formed a plan on the road. It's been a hell of a stressful couple of months. I have not really caught up with pals yet, I've not played a gig, I've not camped out , I've been a hermit. Just work and hope my daughter continues to heal. She is doing great. I'm going out for fresh air and to breathe.

A great path you have chosen brother. Guitars and motorcycles have saved my life more than i care to remember. Been riding the same electra glide classic for 17 years, been fingerpicking my own music for 55 years. A 1972 takamine 12 string i have could never be replaced. I like the sound of your soul.

Thanks Paul .. So relieved Meghan doing so well and she looks amazing .. so proud of her . It was real good to get out even for one night . We had a busy Saturday as had our darling Niece over for a sleepover, she is only 4 . So Sunday we just lay around chilling , then half in a daze I looked out the window at 5pm and said let’s go camping , Lisa for once was not down with it and thought it too late in day . But glad I went . It did feel good . Best wishes to you and yours. Look forward to meeting one day

@MrB1967 День назад

Perhaps we can create a list of recommended campsites? I was lucky enough to find Lakeside Leisure in St Clears, Carmarthen a couple of years ago.. it's a great chilled site, a field a young couple bought and they have made a really nice place out of it. They live on diet in a large ramshackle shed, with their dogs and chickens 😊Nothing fancy, not very commercial but a great place to spend the night. Cheap too, if you are near Swansea and looking for somewhere, this is great. Edit: forget it, it seems it's now permanently closed 🙁 shame!
