Gifts......

Well here I am again...
Thought I'd be out of Runway Farm by now, me being
broke and no work for weeks, but hey, out of the blue
I get a job for the Sha of Oman, and farmer John has let
me off with the rent,(again) so I'm still here, still clinging
to my 'way of life'.
..... My health has been better, and my energy levels are
very, very low, and ergo my mood, I needed a lift badly,
and wow, I got two in a week. First my son sent me his
first full, published book, inside he has written that he's
sure I'm partly to blame for it.. ha ha . I don't think so
Daz, I'm sure your talent is inspite of me, not thanks to
me.
.. Anyway, lift number two... I can't afford to go down Stans
anymore, but I keep in touch through singing the blues,
a forum I post on once a week or so. A couple of days ago
I got a package from Tasmania, it was a Zippo, engraved on
it was "KRO" "Tas". I was blown away, I had no idea it was
coming. Tas ( Steve Kerr) is an ex-brummie and bluenose I talk
to on singing the blues. We met a couple of years ago when he
made (maybe) his last visit to England. We had a drink in the Wagon,
and, well I felt I'd known him all my life, what a cool guy.
.. So thank you both for my gifts, and the smile on my face..

and here's the magical, mixed-up, pissed-up John Martyn ....
