I asked my wife of 10+ years of she could go get some strings for my wife’s classical guitar today, because I wanted to start paying again after a long depression. I’ve finally got some of my artistic side back.

Set the new strings and started playing. I couldn’t remember much from 25 years, but after a little while, my wife asked “How long did you play?”, because I was better than she thought I would be. Maybe because she’s never heard me play. Don’t get me wrong, I fucking suck balls, but I do remember some tabs. Hopefully, I’ll get better and not give up.

      I don’t know where you’re located, but around here there’s monthly ukulele meetups where they meet at a sports club or RSL and have a sing/play along, and sometimes offer beginners courses. They’re pretty popular with retirees especially. They’re a good night out.
