    Thanks, guys. It went well. Had a huge case of the nerves but I pulled through. Only had one mistake and that was due to twitchy fingers.

    Well done. Now you know you won't fall apart if you make a mistake, and nerves can be overcome.

    BTW, you do know there's a hornpipe tune (often listed as a reel) written by P/M Rab Pinkman of the King’s Own Scottish Borderers titled 'Itchy Fingers'?? . (It's published in P/M Rob Matheison's book Marking Time).

    Mistake! That was your musical "interpretation"! Very well done laddie.

    Nick. You are going to remember those moments for the rest of time. And in a very positive way, so will everyone else. A finer tribute could not have been paid I suspect. Exceptional.
