I have loved music and singing all my life albeit having a soft, quiet voice. Thinking I'd never be able to sing solo, I sang in choirs and small harmony groups. Later I started playing the guitar which provided suitable accompaniment for my own singing – done mostly in private. Eventually when I started teaching ESOL, I decided to use my singing/guitar skills to present song lessons centred around the lyrics. This went down well, and the encouragement of the students gave me much-needed confidence - the thing I think I had lacked the most. 
Fast forward a decade. We moved to Motueka whereupon I determined to sing and play every day. I found music groups and joined jam and walk-up sessions; started performing at charity events; and then eventually Rest Homes, and Anniversary events for friends and family. I even busked a few times. I was fortunate enough to happen across some very talented people along the way, one of whom is David Armstrong who suggested we make a CD of some of my favourite songs. It took me a while to find the time and confidence to get that started. Finally started in 2022, and here we are 2023 – mission complete. I have made a CD with 16 songs. A bucket-list item for me!
