well it seems there are a few that play some thing or other and most add ,but not very good .my other half as always said its not about playing well its about enjoying it .its not perfection its performance ,he also suffers from arhuritus and carpel tunnel in is hands and as done for a while now .but i dont think there is a day that dont go by he dont play even if its just for half hour .in the day and when younger it was 24/7 .going back to the middlewhich fest and the tow path jams .some guy was passing and asked if he could listen of course pull a chair up .after about 20 mins the guy said .he dabbles on the uke . hubby said hang on i got one here .were upon he started playing .i kid you not .it was a susan boyle moment ..to this day hubby says he as never heard one play as good as he did, by that fella .in conversation he said he was a boater .from yorkshire way i think , be nice to bump into him again and the others some day .regards
