Avowed ukulele lover George Harrison once wrote in a note to a friend “Everyone I know who is into the ukulele is ‘crackers’... you can’t play and not laugh!” I’m crackers for the ukulele. The instrument has lit up my life like the nine o’clock fireworks – it’s sparkly, fun, wholesome and everyone’s welcome.
It all started a few months ago with an invitation to a “ladies salon” house-warming party, asking us to come with an offering. So, I baked a cake, not realising the offering was meant to be a poem or a song or a performance of some kind.
