Ukuleles & Japanese Cowgirls - whats not to like 
(im not sure if this is ‘Petty’ or ‘Booka’? - either way she looks like Grace Park from BSG)
I love Half Man Half Biscuit. I would say that this track is one of my favourites were it not for the fact that there are about 20 songs that i would consider ‘favourites’

I actually think this is the first HMHB ukulele cover on youtube - yay! go me 
The light at the end of the tunnel is the light of an oncoming train - Half Man Half Biscuit
The chords for this are on Chordie, and ive transposed them to the key of ‘C’ - which means its just C, F & G7
I mess it up at one stage, but with a big enough bucket I might one day be able to carry a tune

Yay!!! ive just purchased the ‘Noah and the Whale’ album this lunchtime. Its not every week that a mainstream ukulele band goes straight into the top 40 at number 14!!
I havent heard much by them other than the single, but Ive obviously been taking the opportunity to tell people that “ive been into them for years”
Im looking forward to giving the album a listen, but I secretly suspect that I will love it for about a week before throwing it ito the back of the cupboard, and tutting everytime mentions them
The album has been out since monday, and Al has yet to put any tab on his site. Come one fella, pull your finger out!!
Having been tipped off of their existance by Al at ukehunt I see that Strings Direct are sell not only ‘Les paul’ shaped ukuleles, but also ‘Telecaster’ ukes
Les Paul

This would be almost identical to my Guitar Hero ‘controller’ - Mrs Zym would never know until it was too late, MUHAHAHA!!!
Telecaster

Its just a pity that the telecaster doesnt have a plate on it, but i am STILL very tempted. In fact for £32-£35, i would be a fool not to
Hello,
Long time no post. Im spending nearly all of my spare time entertaining a giant baby at the moment, so what better way to keep Zym 2.0 (and me & Mrs Zym) amused than with a bit of classic Sesame Street!!
LadyBugs Picnic - Sesame Street
The song is currently being used on a british TV advert for Heinz, but over at ilovefizzypop towers I like to keep things ‘old school’…

(unfortunately my pc died recently and ive only just go round to replacing it. I havent managed to (ahem) aquire of a copy of MS office as yet, so the chords to this were done on Google Docs which, to be fair, seems rather good, and has the advantage of being able to save files straight to PDF - nice)
