Just really really really shit at playing the guitar. As in she can't play a single chord. She's just sat there strumming away, there's no music - it's just noise.

He always wears a suit, he must be in his 70's. I always give him a couple of quid just so I can get a thumbs up. Title: Re: If anyone's in town today...

Loopholes, that's what that's called. She can strum away all day and can't be touched. Title: Re: If anyone's in town today... Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 9, 2009, 12:52:59 Too late. I touched her. She enjoyed it.
