2020 What a year !!

The new year started well enough - A new job closer to home so more free time - well that was the plan.

Then we had a family health scare closely followed by Covid and the lockdowns.  Pretty much normal family life and normal working life ceased and we entered a limbo state of trying to care for our families and ourselves.

Lots of household jobs that had been put off suddenly we had time to do them all.

I now have a dedicated hobby room and permanent Guitar setup and for the last month I have been making the most of it again.

My Pedalboard has been updated with full MIDI capability so it not only controls Youtube  but also switches patches on my GT-001 and even has 2 Expression pedal slots.

Speaker wise I'm running 2 Alesis Active Monitors which sound really nice.

I finally graduated to playing standing up. It took 2 or 3 sessions to get comfy but now I actually find it comfier than sat down.

Next goal - to records myself playing a real song all the way through!  No idea how long it will take but its a goal.
