Monday 27th October ’08

there are few things more annoying than not seeing an expected update on a site like this, and for that I apologise.. as you all have no doubt figured out I have the best reason in the world to take some time off.. My daughter, Jasmine Lily, was born last week.  Everything went as smoothly as it could have, though Tania at one point had me in a head lock that felt terminal, and we have a healthy little girl..  I’ve been banned from publishing of photo’s of Jasmine online (honestly if I did the diary would just decend into a baby blog!) so you will just have to order a guitar and come for a visit to meet her!

I will be easing myself back into the workshop over the next week or so as Jasmine’s sleep patterns normalise and I hope to have caught up with emails by the end of today (you wouldn’t believe the spam!).  Email is still the best way to contact me though, phones are still operational but are on silent for now!  Thank you all for your support and patience.

All my best,

Ben
