Well....theUFR.com website is properly online now ! Mike Spraggett (The Webmaster) has certainly performed an essential mission for Heather & I. Mike & I had never spoken in depth until two months ago. I sometimes supported his Laptop at work when it went wrong. Then, on that determined day, at work, in the Unipart Coffee shop queue, we began chatting about websites. An idea was expressed that we needed to make our music available to family, friends & fans across the globe.
A voice must have prompted Mike......he said “ I will do it for you”........and that’s how this site was birthed ! I thought he was crazy actually, considering his stressful day-job as Technical Solutions Architect. He must have been moved by an angel, methinks. Mike spent the many hours creating.... I certainly didn’t have those hours or skills to spend. Mike came up with domain name (theUFR.com). Brilliant.
Recording the many songs we still have to do, will take the rest of our lives. So............
Thanks Mike.........we are all eternally grateful to you & Betty & Chilli
(Betty is Mike’s partner & is also extremely creative. Ask her how to make the Hungarian Cucumber & Garlic dish....delicious ! Chilli is the family Alsatian dog that Mike has had buy a new Estate car for :-)
Now.........the resulting comments about the site are particularly stirring. Us human beans are funny, you know.....
People who love-a-lot are specially blessed by the site. People who know us comprehend & thrive on the archive of music & photos.
Other “professional, self-appointed daffodils” are nit-picking, saying theUFR.com site is not marketable blah, blah, blah... They claim the site is meaningless.
Family, Friends & Musicians completely comprehend the pictures & music.
Hey....we know what the flaws are.... over years, the site will get better & more in-focus. For now, it’s a labour of love for Heather & I and also for Mike. He’s a good man. Drop him a line on theUFR.com Guest Book.
Egg us on now, to get those old songs onto tape.....
Love ‘n Peace from us to you
