I like the look of the new site. Pete's message asked me to copy one of my early threads from the old site, so here is my first (I think it all still applies, especially the penultimate sentence!):
Hello from Lancashire. I'm a very late arrival on the sax scene, being near retirement and only having taken up the alto two years ago, though I played the violin for ten years at school (a long time ago!)
I'm getting a lot of fun and satisfaction playing in a local wind band, but a lot of envy when I watch the youngsters whose brains are a lot better connected to their fingers than mine is.
Anyway, I keep persevering and I am slowly improving. Maybe some day I will be able to play the fast bits as well.
Congratulations on this forum - the mutual support is fantastic.
