Nice one. Mr Tinker, Tailor,Soldier, Spy. Ah loved your book, and TV series, BTW .

I dost think that Old Elizabethan titles betray the spendour of court life. Whether the common man in the street enjoyed such spleandour, well..... probabaly not. Does he today> Well... to a degree, ah guess. Ah am gonna stop now, cause ah am boring myself, never mind YOU!. If you have read this far into ma comment, God bless you for your perseverance, MrTinker Guiness

Thank you all for such kind comments - especially from those of you who produce such good videos! 

@JUJU - you threw me for a minute, as I've never played a gig in my life - I think you must mean my brother, Michael, it's confusing there's three of us on cigar box nation - I built my brothers cbg's for their Christmas presents a couple of years ago.

@Jim Morris - it's particularly nice to hear encouragements from one who plays this kind of thing so well.

Very lovely tune well-played. Makes me want to just sit back, close my eyes, and get lost in the melody and those the harmonic overtones. Thanks for sharing. I'm adding it to my list of favorites. :-)
