    Feeling a bit cranky
    Life, Faith, Thought
    I must say, I am feeling a bit cranky about international payback politics having very unwanted and unnecessary affect on local people where I live. This investigate by the Chinese government into the 'dumping' of 'cheap' Australian wine into the domestic Chinese market is disheartening for the locals. Why would the minnow nation who happens to grow premium wine for a vast market want to flood that huge market (as if they could!) and therefore bring the price down on the very wine they want to continue to trade? But, I guess, as I once heard someone say, "Superpowers don't have friends, they have 'interests". That means any superpower of any time. In ancient times the Egyptians, the Babylonians, the Greeks under Alexander, had their 'interests'. In more recent times, Britannia who ruled the waves had its interests. We were one of them. All my life post World War II, the U.S have had us Aussies as an interest. I guess, there will always be at least one superpower with a lot of interests to maintain their powers. Hopefully, the power will not go to their heads (as it often can) and the everyday locals can survive.

    Learning new skills
    Music and Song
    Really enjoying learning new guitar and stage skills in our band, Waiting For Andy . I am a community song, rhythm guitar musician by default. I have spend 30 years leading church communities of varying shapes and sizes in all kinds of community hymns and song on guitar and with voice. I love this music and leading the community in this way. But I have always dabbled in more performance based singing and playing and always wanted to go further with that. I did pen 12 songs way back in the 90's and got them to CD published level. They were originals. Now I am enjoying playing songs I and others know and love in our cover band. Performance playing is way different to community song playing. Still working out the differences in how you play and sing and for what purpose.
