Hi Daddycool,

It is a good job I was not rocking in a chair to the beat I put to this song - I would have rocked it over! lol.

Nice song and easy to play, well done and thank you.

My grandparents used to have a heavy, black, cane rocking chair that would almost rock itself. The seat was busted out so you had to put a pillow across it to sit. They lived deep in the city, but still under the brow of Belfast's hills - Mountcashel St for anys might know it. I used to sit in the attic looking out through the skylight and rock.

Now they give us prozac !
