Anyone, and I mean a-n-y-o-n-e, can learn to play that sweet little thing. I have uncles (more like cousins in age) who used to show off for us when they came home from college, playing the uke and singing Trini Lopez's "Lemon Tree." Time warps can go either way, but yours seem to be headed in the right direction.
Hope you don't mind if I tag along behind..
