new intro

Hi everyone, I am recently retired and living on the kzn south coast. Played in a band for about five years or so in my teens, 60s, sold my stuff when we disbanded in 1970, and never played again until my sister presented me with an accoustic guitar six weeks ago. Never expected to get into playing again but am loving it, but have a long way to go, fingers old & useless. Came across this forum and here I am, hope to partake & contribute where I can. cheers all! ?

My wife wants to open a guest house there someday...

Great idea, good demand if near the Beach, tends to be seasonable though. ☹

Yeah... and I would like to run a software dev company from a coffee shop close to the beach... hehe... working on some small products at the moment... maybe if I offer a wide array of small things I could hook up a bunch of small revenue streams...

So is it true that you can teach an old dog some new tricks or is it that the old dogs teach the pups new tricks?

Thanks stoffelToo, both are true, it just takes a lot longer :dance:
