My Life (in 300 words)

 My Life (in 300 words)

Len Morgan 

I joined a group in 1957s as their vocalist. We played rock (Elvis, Buddy Holly, Eddie Cochran, etc) all the pop stuff from the US & UK. 

 I still amuse myself (at home) with 1940~60s stuff plus Folk, Country Western, Blues, Comedic Tales, Old not so well known songs.

So, my question is, where's the market for that stuff these days? I'm 81, don't have transport, other than the bus. 

I play an acoustic guitar (Yamaha APXT2) & Sing the music I love. I have a list of 400+ songs I could sing & play 10 years ago, but find I can't remember the words to all of them now (thank you, YouTube; for the mind jogs). 

 I live in an expanding town in the UK, Hullbridge, Essex, England... 

I think that's about all I can say, if you think I should add more ~ Answers on a postcard!    (if anybody remembers them.) 

I’m also a writer, and member of the Rayleigh library writers group:

http://RLWG2020.blogspot.com 

I run the blog and regularly contribute stories but not as regularly as I did in past years.  124,618 visits to date and we’ve posted 1370 stories & poems.  We have visitors from all over the world, except from Australia & Canada, curious why? 

I’m a mediocre painter in all mediums, but I enjoy the crack (craic), at the Windermere Centre Art group, in Hullbridge. 

We have seven (7) Chihuahua’s, who bring joy to our lives, 2 boys (Milo & Jack) & 5 girls (Lilly, Saffy, Ruby, Poppy, & Truffles).  We take walks with them, weather permitting.  But I’m limited by hardened arteries (arterial sclerosis). I used to love walking, ten years ago, now I have to take 2 mins rest every 100yds, guess that’s life ~ I’m still here…
