Re: To Our Beloved CHORDIE Family (19 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Strummerboy Bill .... I think there is song waiting to be written in that message of yours up there. "Whenever I get emotional, instead of "crying" I like to say "I'm raining" "and let me tell y'all, it's a "monsoon of happiness" in my little studio right now."
Anyway, Chordie wouldn`t be the same without you and hearing about your lovely Dondra. All the very best for Christmas , the New Year and may 2018 be a GOOD year for you both. Blessings to you both
