Hi All, simple tune that's probably not very original, just don't know what it's called ; )

Beautiful. I think it sounds romantic too, and sitting in front of the fire after a walk in the snow. How about "Feet at the Fireplace".

You have such a refined style.  What is your musical background?  You sound trained as I don't often hear ear players in America having such classical tastes.

I think the mix needs a touch more warmth, maybe a little low end EQ bump?  Very pretty tune, as always.

According to Soundcloud, along with Rik, I should also be following No Doubt (which I love) and Al Jazeera. Is there something you are not telling us Rik? Should we nickname you Jihad Rik? Lovely piece. It rings no bells for me, so if it is based on something already done, I have never heard it. Well done.

Hi John, thanks, doesn't matter, was just wondering .

Hi Lynn, thanks, that made my day ; )

Hi , James, thanks, "Entwined " I like it.

Hi Dodsie, thanks for the suggestion.

Hi Grant, thanks, glad you like it.

Hi Daryl,thanks for listening.

Hi Shad,I have a feeling those recommendations are pretty random, I don't even like "No doubt" ; )

Hi Daryl, thanks,I really shouldn't touch the eq, I thought it sounded to warm ; ) 

I don't have any formal training, started on electric guitar 30 years ago. Switched to steelstring acoustic and open tunings 15 years  ago and finally 5 years ago I made the switch to nylonstring guitars.
