@nacornan - if it looks high, it's because there's tilt-shift added the the photo. It's about as high as my waist. (That raises the question, of course, how high am I? And that raises another question...)
@ Greyowl I need to try a bit harder with the uke too. I managed to learn a few chords and a few soloing patterns, but I let it go and have forgotten most of it.
By the way, if it helps anyone, an approach I'm really liking at the moment is to figure out a tune on a different instrument (in this case, the strings, which are 'virtually' played in garageband, but mostly it's something on the uke) before learning it on the harp. It forces you to play something you probably wouldn't naturally pick out on the harp - usually I fall straight into a clichéd riff. Also, limitations on the uke or whatever are actually quite helpful; it keeps it fairly basic and repetitive but helps you find a memorable hook.
Edit: thanks guys. Singing definitely wouldn't help me, believe it!
