Gosh, another party thread to catch up with -

@JohnG @stringy @SharonC @elcbk - nice work all !  Particularly enjoyed the variations by Emily, and Sharon's duet !  Way to go, play by ear Stringy - yup that works!  And thanks again to John for kicking off the party !

@abitrusty - Greg - your video link was marked private (maybe you just took it off "general release" after a while - I do that sometimes....) so I didn't manage to view that one - nevertheless, thanks to all  for your contributions !

I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh - guntohead.JPG

Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

@Katie L - it was the other "G" that started the party LOL - it was JohnG - @JohnG 

We are easily mixed up, both being fully paid up members of "The Old Curmudgeons Club" - as per JohnG's signature roflol

And to further the party, here is a special duet that @SharonC put together using my original video and adding herself playing an accompaniment. Just too much like fun! Thank you, Sharon.
