It is nice to have some places that just don’t change.

This has been in my drafts for ages. better publish.

The next time you need a capo and can’t find one, get inspired. Here’s a makeshift capo that I made from an almost empty lighter and a hair band.You can use a pencil, pen or anything else which presses the strings firmly, in place of the lighter. Moral of the story: ضرورت ایجاد کی والدہ محترمہ ہیں
