Hi,
talk about a dreamer. Hubby mentioned he might take up guitar. So I dashed out and bought him one last xmas along with a "How to Play Guitar Video". The guitar lasted as long as it took to get the jolly thing tuned.
I had grand visions of playing duets ( haahaa).
I'd been trying to get him interested in some sort of a hobby for years and when the words "guitar" cropped up, I couldn't help myself.
He used to love his sport,too, Aussie Rules Football, cricket, mad keen golfer but unfortunately a building accident nearly 30 years ago left him a parapalegic and confined to a wheel chair.
Fortunately he enjoys his work ( he went back to building, but only supervises nowadays) On weekends he enjoys pottering round the garden and loves mowing the lawns
( he has a ride on lawn mower) It's fortunate for me he enjoys the gardening , because I hate it.
Week nights he watches tv. I suppose when he retires he'll find himself a hobby, if not, we'll have to buy an acreage with lawns so he can mow , mow , mow.( haahaa)
Might get him a Harmonica next, might master that more quickly than a guitar???(forever hopeful)

best wishes
Rikki
