I bought me a violin!

[Blackleaf]

"I bought myself a violin" is the correct English. The pronoun, rather than the object pronoun, should be used in that situation.

I can lend ya my Grammar in a Nutshell from grade 8. Clearly I never use it and it won't be missed.

The best beloved of most many in my sight is correct grammar. Turn not away therefrom if thou desirest a pleasant style, and neglect it not if thou wishest to impress people. By its aid thou shalt type beautifully and not grammatically incorrectly. Set it then before thine eyes.

I never made a mistake in grammar but one in my life and as soon as I done it I seen it.

Here is a good example of a good back-up fiddler Maurice Moreau, from Pembroke.....Sober or drunk....one of the best fiddlers I've ever heard.....
And then the guitar player, Lone Wolf has surely known,;-) the late Oscar (Lucky) Neveux from Markstay......

I found out lately that the violin is glued together with animal glue. It makes perfect sense because of its advantages, but for whatever reason, while I could accept the horse-hair bow, the makeup of the rest of the instrument never crossed my mind.

Oh well, now that I've bought it, I'll learn it. Maybe I could switch to an electric violin later on in a few years.

Now that could be fun.

I think Yamaha sells those.

Or I could buy one sooner. The electric violins do have the advantage that you can really bring the volume down on them... or up

Oh, now that I have the elctrict violin in mind, I really want to learn it.
