Title: I can pinch!!!!
Post by: cleo on May 25, 2007, 19:39:42
Well so what?-just over two years ago I lost the feelings in two of my left hand fingers,the feeling(albeit a bit numb) came back slowly but I had no strength in them.

Today something special has happened,I wondered earlier but it`s happened-suffice to say I have started to restring my accoustic guitar-Curry had better watch his arse because I am back learning my E chord and my pinky can hold down a sharp-in the parlance of football I`m over the moon.

Still have to replace the G B and top E-but then froggie might go a wooing-ah-singing was never my best feature.

They still feel a bit numb but they work-I can pinch!! ;D

Cleo, that truly is the best bit of news I have heard this week,I am so happy for you.As I am a sewer I have tried to imagine life with numb fingers and it would be very hard to cope. Maybe we can start a rock band . My dad always said he would when he retired, "Willy and the Hasbeens" was his chosen name, and my Bruv who is almost 80 is in a rock band in Australia.

I am really chuffed for you XXXXX Jeannine

PS Watch who you pinch though, make it worthwhile

Jeannine-you are not a sewer!!!-leave it to others on other sites to be conduits of shite

Caroline-Hospitality has it`s limits-one would not impose my guitar playing on anyone-mostly cos I have no idea where one chord goes after another but it`s nice to be able to try again :)

Curry, I've had a listen to your music and it is beautiful. I am very envious as novice guitarist, just one more thing to aspire to... :)

Cleo, thank you for the compliment, my choice of words/spellings sometimes surprises me too.  You know if you are coming to Barnsdale with your healed back and your good pinch ......................... XX Jeannine
