The past weeks events I believe show just the opposite. Quite a rich statement from the gentleman to the east with a total I believe of what is it now... 4 ( yes I did say 4) Rainbows in his pocket.

Very well then.......


May the Good Lord take a liking to you...... but not too soon.

Believe it or not there is no pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

Who is the good Lord? Lord Lucan. He owes me a couple of pints, anyone seen him?

Don't worry Ice, get you a couple next time Cheers.

THE Good Lord, man.

Just a good-natured, gentle Irish jab of a toast... at least as it was explained to me.

...how's about this one then...



Peace and long life.

Slaite! Gartha! Proost! Gesondheid! Saude! Skal! Iechyd da! Salud! Chok dee!
Good health!

You are not a Trekkie then I take it??

No haven't got Trekkie, that's a serious mental disease!

Hey, Ice I appreciate I missed last Tuesday but where's mine, I could spit a tanner

ALCOHOL ABUSE LECTURE

A man is stopped by the police around 1 AM and is asked where he was going at this late hour.

The man replies, "I am going to attend a lecture about alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body and social relations".

The officer then asks, "Really? Who on earth is giving such a lecture at this time of night?"

The man replies simply, "My wife."

This should knock the dust back a little at least, Mike. One of Barry's best exports, IMNSHO...

Hey Ice

Whoopee tonight is drinking night!! - and I am chasing a couple of guitars. A dangerous mix I know, so I think I will write down my cash limit sober and maintain some level of discipline throughout the evening.

Graham

A good plan Graham but one with a fatal flaw..... you need to be able to read it as the evening progresses.

Cheers Steve Are you sure Barry wont mind

Iceman wrote:Are you sure Barry wont mind

Nope. *hic* I'm more of a Scotch boy meself. Enjoy!

As am I, Barry... as am I. But that 40 Creek is one wonderfully smooth Canadian malt.

Superior to Crown Royal 6 ways from Saturday.... and twice on Sundays!

You blokes are all panty-waists; get some Calvados inya!!



... smoothest thing I have ever imbibed, with that lovely 40% hit!! Mmmmmm... Or - if that's a bit much for you, then Metaxa is a beautiful drop and not quite as "blow yer head Clean off" as Calvados.....

Papa Hemmingway would be proud of you John. Nice selection.



Splash of coffee for you this morning, Graham? In front of the hearth, please help yourself. Cream and/or sugar just behind you there in the pantry.

Bit of a dreary morning in this neck o' the woods but the Sumatra is freshly ground and hot...

Thanks Ice - The coffee was most welcome and I also helped myself to a little doodle on the Melody Maker in the background. These are seriously great wee guitars. I used to own two but sold them to increase my Matsumoku collection. I always think they look like cartoon guitars, like something out of Tom and Gerry, but boy are they bright and resonant!!

PS It wasn't me who left teeth marks in the cheese in the fridge - I would never abuse hospitality.

PPS My plan worked well last night in that I bought nothing so the collection remains static.

Graham

Agreed, it is a seriously "neat-o mosquito" little player. This one I now have is a bit of a mismash of differing parts that I have Frankied together out of necessity.

'63 body and neck, Wilkinson replacement wraparound, a '73? Strat singlecoil, Gotohs in the headstock, and so forth. The pup currently in isn't the worst sounding SC I've ever heard, but still a #3 iron or so from the P90 I'd like to have in her.

Always looking to find vintage parts on the cheep, cheep though. Hope to have her back to OEM, someday...

Glad your plan executed without hitches last evening. I lit a candle for you before heading out to the ol' watering hole last night for my evening half-dozen.

Belly up gents! First round's on me...



Let's go boys... Westbone, hoax, grogg, Sollo, CCJ, Corsair, Warrn, Colt, Barry too! Bottoms up...

That looks inviting Ice. A little condensation on the outside of the glass would have made it the perfect picture. Right now I am chilled out on Lidl Brandy and Lidl coke.

Recent guitar purchases include Seventies Jap Les Paul DC Special, Seventies Tele Thinline, Seventies Jap SG, Aria Pro Leopard LP clone, Gibson Melody Maker P90, Greco Les Paul.

Fortunately all bought sober.

I think I need to take over another room before buying any more,but I just can't help myself!!

Britain is on strike this morning so a lie in for me as I do not have to get up to take the boys to School/University.

Take Care All

Hoax

Cheers hoax! Knew I could count 'ya in...

Melody Maker with a P90, eh?? Vintage, newer or ??

Hoax

Ya know I was in the UK for a month for work a couple years ago - wish I was on this forum then, cause Hoax and I would get along very well - if ya ever get to Florida, let me know sir - beers and guitars

SAAAAARC!


Every establishment needs a Norm, don't you agree?

for me it is beers & guitars

Sarc we're like two hours apart! We need to have a beers and guitars day sometime! For now though, I'm out of beer... but I do have rum and coke!

Put a song list together and If I can get time away from the family I'd be happy to jam eh - I'll bring some beers

Song list? I've only ever done originals, I'll have to learn some...

I'll jam to anything, just thought some thought out songs gets things started. I love to improvise

Gotta drummer to go along with ya- always helps

I'm in two bands so I have two drummers, but we'd have to get another person involved because the drum kits are both with the singers.
