Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.
A few days prior to my birthday I got an unexpected "present".
A freak accident resulted in a broken neck!!!
All is well though - no serious consequences it seems - have to wear a neck brace for 4 - 6 weeks.
No pain, but playing guitar requires a bit of an awkward position that doesn't seem to improve my playing - but then, not much else seems to improve it either!
In spite of this, I did indeed have a great day!
Thanks to all my BGU friends. You are all appreciated.
Tom
