    I am a huge Kate Bush fan since 1978 and can say: your version is the most beautiful of this masterpiece, so sunny and uplifting. And the key is just in being completely different from the original. Kate will certainly love your work.

    I came home from the Rock Shop in Hamilton N.Z. yesterday with a concert size Ukulele and a song book. Bob Dylan says if you know more than 4 cords you are showing off. I am now a uke player. One of your team. The shop had some nice ukes including a bass with massive strings and other strange looking ones. Vistas are opening up to me.

    An orchestra that keeps on growing too, it seems, with not just Laura this time but Doug doing his best sheepdog look and yet another face I don't know (yet). I almost wish this pandemic doesn't end as I'm so loving seeing a new video each weekend.
