It's still one-handed bass-playing at the moment. But it's a milestone (millstone?).

Well, it has been an eventful day and I have received far more congratulations than I expected (thanks also to the friendly souls here above).

Treated myself to a set of Hifiman Sundara headphones which were substantially discounted on Amazon (review pending) and a bottle of Swedish Single-Malt Whisky.

A strange, complex and intriging one this. Very 'woody' with a punch. But nice.

'Snow Goose' LP in the background. Life is good.

Cheers lads ! :obscene-drinkingcheers:
