Hello Again World!

KiwiCelt Mach II is finished — kind of…
The statement above begs the question, “Is a web site ever finished?” Well, the journey that began on Mayday is over — at least for a little while. 23 days has at times seemed like three months (as you might be able to tell by the photo on the right), but the job is essentially done and KiwiCelt is into it’s second incarnation. Thanks to the folks that have offered encouraging comments recently — on and off-line — and an especially big thank you to my friend John G over at A Sensitivity To Things for his patient advice and help. John’s heading for sainthood and I do hope he remembers how I helped him to achieve it when that great day arrives…
A little about WordPress: Awesome! (Sorry, was I yelling?) If you’re like me (and I sincerely hope you’re not) and don’t have the necessary skills or time to go ahead and build a website from the ground up, or just want to have a nice looking blog/web site so you can strut your stuff on the net, I have to say that WordPress is pretty darn cool. Free, simple to use, tons of good advice on the net, plenty of great themes, plugins and widgets available — the list goes on. I’m sure there are plenty of other great products out there for blogging, but I feel pressed to say that I am very impressed with WordPress!
My final point is to say welcome to the new-look KiwiCelt Wooden Flutes and to encourage folks involved in the wonderful world of wooden flutes and Irish traditional music that might have something to say to let me know about it. Always happy to spread the word if it’s relevant to the above. We hope to have a web site up for Martin Doyle soon — will let you know about that when that happens.
Best wishes — sonas ort, Shardul.

God bless you my child!
Seriously, I think this is the first time sainthood and my name have been mentioned in the same sentence—other than as complete opposites.
I’m almost inspired to go and start playing the wooden flute again—I wonder where I could find a good one…?
A good wooden flute is it? Well actually, I do know a fella up in County Clare…
