Wilcon - we speak the same language!! The frustration can drive me nuts sometimes! But its because I expect a result straight away, and when it doesn't happen I hate it!!! With two children, a husband, dogs, turkeys, chickens and everyday hassles, its sometimes hard to find enough time to practice. Being left alone to get on with it can be nigh on impossible too!! But then, almost out of the blue, something I've been struggling with just happens! Without me trying too hard, usually - now thats a great feeling. Makes up for all the tough times!! :) :)
The 9" of snow we are under here in England is a great excuse for more guitar time!!! :)
