Is this a 'goodbye' letter? From the feel of the photo it tells me you are feeling despair.

_rebekka says:

hehe.
a year ago i told you you had really nice fingers.
Wasn't that nice of me?
:)

(i still agree with my sentiment actually)
;)
Posted 38 months ago. ( permalink )

[phil h] says:

that was indeed very nice of you, rebekka.. :)
(and of course I appreciate the renewed expression of your apparently un-changed sentiment! :P )

thanks everyone for your comments by the way!

And since I just noticed that I never answered several questions about what I was writing in this photo: I remember that I was writing to a dear friend - and it wasn't a 'goodbye' letter as THG was wondering.

(And as a sidebar for O Caritas: The only time I remember charting one of my sax solos was for a class assignment at Berklee.. - fits my lifestyle better: very much improvised!.. :)
