 Hi Pugs .. just wanted to thank everyone for taking part in Buskers by the Creek. Special shout out to Jaya our long time Uke teacher @ Palm Beach Ukulele Group. His timely phone call made it possible for us to secure a spot at this gig.

Kim C for the delicious treats, Kim D for handing the treats out while the gig was on .. plus our fliers and information. I hope you liked the organic lollipops also.

Ukulele Stories

Tony Halls Match Stick Ukulele

I am not a uke  player, but wondered if the unique ukulele my late father created

fits with Your Real Life Uke Stories?”

Jack Hall created this Soprano Ukulele in 1984 at the age of 79 years. It is 

entirely made with throw away wood matchsticks...10,000 matchsticks were

individually joined together with hide glue.

Matchsticks for the curved portions were pre-soaked in water and bent, and the

glued-together sections were weighted into shape with the aid of flat-irons, fire 

bricks and pans of water. 

The carving was fashioned with a knife, a file and a straight-edge razor; finishing

touches accomplished with graded sandpaper, before the clear varnish seal was

applied.                                                          

The main distinguishing features are the burnt matchstick ornamentation. The

 blackened, burnt match-heads were ingeniously interlocked to form herring bone

 and diamond designs on the front and back of the body, with soldier columns on

 the body sides and peg head front. 

The original white wood has aged nicely to a rich gold colour.

Construction was completed in four hundred hours...working five hours per day.

Jack completed the project with a case entirely made with 200 Cardboard

MatchBoxes.

The ukulele is part of a collection in the book of Guinness World Records, 2003

Edition.  Abbreviated text says, "Tony Hall (UK) owns 10 playable musical

instruments made entirely from 106,000 used wooden matchsticks."

Ukulele - Palm Beach Pugs

At the end of the day it is so nice to be able to relax, stroll down to the beach and bathe in the last of the suns warm rays. Maybe watch the sun set and strum a few tunes of your ukulele. The yoga txts tell us that this is a particularly conducive time to practice meditation.

If you have ever contemplated learning how to meditate YMSA (Yoga Meditation Studios Australia) are offering FREE meditation lessons via skype. So very convenient, all you have to do is set yourself up in a nice comfy chair, and take part in the meditation class. You will find it really interesting, and it's always great to learn new things, especially information that can help you grow in so many way. Studies have shown that meditation helps with physiological as well as psychosomatic disorders. It's certainly worth having a think about it.
