COULD NOT GET ANYTHIN ON DEVELOPI N  "STRONG PATIENCE", JUST PATINEC STRONG; ENJOY!

Seeking Patience Strong – ‘The Sunday Times’

Somewhere in Southern England. December 7th, 1981

Patience Strong, it can be safely said, is the pseudonym for an enigma of an undisclosed age who, after a lifetime of the unexplained, lives anonymously at a secret address somewhere in England. As for the rest, it’s all a bit of a mystery….

She sits in her seaside chalet dispensing dinky sandwiches on doilies, sidestepping intrusion into that privacy with steely skill wrapped in olde worlde charm. No, this is just her weekend home, her real home is …elsewhere. Yes, quite near, about ten miles away…in a little village. And no, Patience isn’t her real name but it’s quite alright to call her that.

Good luck with the playing. I'm fairly raw myself, but loving every second of it.
Mountain Dulcimers can be hella fun too!

I got  hold of a Behringer FX600 Digital Multi-FX Pedal which I hooked up to my old Cigarbox guitar and also to the Dulcimer and I`m getting some cool sounds!
