Cheers Phill. Over the last few days I have made a lot of phone calls. I'm not normally much of a phone person  but I have found it to have been a rewarding interesting way of catching up.     

Cheers Piri I was hoping for some others to enter the lift with other instruments to add to the sound. Our Police have a very laidback down to earth style of policing mostly.     

Thank you Bill that was interesting and I love the way he teaches how to play the chords to Wagon Wheel.     

Jim you have put together a song with lyrical brilliance. The title "Cryptic Trance" superb. a perfect name for a band.

Thank you Bill , Brian and  Jim for your comments   If it was good enough for Pink Floyd  and Abba to write about money it means there is plenty of room for Phill and I to add another song to the world on dosh. I actually only wrote a few of the lyrics and Phill did all the rest music vocals and so on. Phill is a genius when it comes to music and songwriting. I  made the video  and I hope it worked well with the song.

Bill you will always be Bill to me or Strummer Bill not Wih Re Moo.     

Thank you Piri for your vote of confidence.  I try to make my approach to music and lyrics original and not conventional . Tech and the interweb always get me confused people show me how to do things on the computer and next thing I know I have forgotten what they have shown me. I must find out what an interface and a DAW is. I brought a recording mike and a recording multi track studio download earlier this year when it proved to hard for me to use so I took it back as the guy in the shop said to me if it proves to hard they would refund me. 
Thank you again your a wonderful musical mentor.

Hi Bill I will send you this song I recorded on my cellphone for you.  I'm sorry about for the sound  quality not being the greatest. Maybe just as well with my bad guitar playing and singing. I wont ask you to sing it because I think it is not as good as the other ones written by the chordies above.

Piri, I know having heard your magic playing your pick would have done a good job. RIP your pick I bet it has made  your guitar sing perfectly. Maybe in time to come archaeologist will find your pick and wonder what it was and it's place in history.
My little plastic fantastic.
Danced with many a string.
Listen to by many a boy and girl while they were having a fling.
Now my beautiful pick.
Rest in peace beneath the soil.
Leaving me with many memories of its beautiful toil.

Here is a final article on Toa attached he was given a  good farewell honouring  his  brave spirit..

A friend of mine a very good guitarist and musician never smoked but in his music room he had an ashtray which held his much loved guitar picks. When he played gigs he never put his picks in with the guitar cases they were placed in his wallet with a bit in it designed specially to hold his picks. He was okay with other people playing his guitars but no one could touch his picks. I was told after he died his ashtray with the picks in it now sit on a table besides his wife bed as her way of keeping him close even though he is gone. His son told me that his mother guilty pleasure is when cleaning the ashtray when dusting and vacuuming is holding the picks in her hands. Apparently it wasn't until after he died that she got to touch those picks.
