Play your ukelele...

I'm not really one for impulse buys but yesterday I bought something totally out of the blue.
I bought myself a ukelele.
I saw it in a charity shop and it was super cheap due to chips in the paint job.
I bought one like the uke pictured on the left of this text. It is covered in stars and it looks like some Fisher Price toy you'd give to a toddler... which is exactly why I had to have it. 

I've affectionately named the new instrument Palmer (after Amanda Palmer, go listen to her song "Ukelele Anthem" and it'll make sense) so now I'm going to go and try to teach myself the ukelele. 2014 is going to be a fun year.
