Hmmm, steak bake. I could just go a steak bake. Why isn’t there a 24 hour Greggs? They’d make a fortune round here. Mostly from me. Hmmmm. Steak bake.......

Are you suggesting we put them in a vice? Or have i misunderstood yet again?😻

It's surprising how often that little store cupboard standby has come to the rescue of a mundane recipe. Of course, only the larger Waitrose have it in stock although you can get it online from Ocado. We're lucky up here in the rural Wolds - we can get it fresh from the Farmers Market in Louth on a Wednesday (that said, Simian Simon, the local monkey chuckler has been in Magaluf for the last couple of weeks so there's been no fresh while he's been away. No doubt he'll be in a hell of a mood when he gets back till he's caught up again.)

Ya beat me to it! Nice work, Speedy Teebs

Pardon?

This is Basschat. You'll get all four before the morning's out. Probably from the same person. In the same post. 😂 In all seriousness, I like the theory. I think other things may have had an influence (not least recording technology as mentioned above) but at macro level, it's a reasonable hypothesis that if it were made into a four-part documentary series, I would watch with interest.

Whitened? Hahahaha! I've got teeth like Boot Hill Cemetery, me. Or as Mike Harding put it - like the Holy Commandments; ten of 'em, every one broke....

That question is usually asked with the word "why" on the front.....

I wonder where they've all ended up? Where's Young Teebs, by the way?

Grandad rock, actually. 😁 What's this drum and bass thing? Is it like that there hop-hip?

I've been busy and not been on here for a while. Have I missed anything exciting? 😁

I reckon I might get a few quid to sod off and play somewhere else......

If this includes your sizeable entourage, then surely it's worth it for both the venue and the band? They're going to sell a lot of Bolly....

That hurts... *sniff* 😢

What's wrong with me? I read that as "something to garrotte to". I been watching too much Killing Wotserface and Game of Thingies

Absolutely, old chap. Absolutely. Well, as you say, jel.

Well, Teebs English anyway. Quite another thing altogether 😁

Or maybe it is and these are all coded references? Hmmmm? Hadn't considered that, had you? 😁🤫

Like American car ads..... SAVE! SAVE! SAVE! WE'VE DRIVEN A BULLDOZER THROUGH OUR PRICES (and over a sh*t-ton of our guitars but let's not talk about that....)

Asinine Hep Cat? I’m guessing that’s an anagram?

Not surprising. It looks like the woman on the Boots make up counter got the skin tone completely wrong. He needed No 7 ‘Sesame’ not Pale bleedin’ Ivory....

A "rarebit" of casting? Hmm? Geddit? Huh? I'll get me coat....

"as mad as Jones the Bon-kers...."?

Exactly. I dare not even start to calculate the amount of money I've blown on cars over the years. I suspect i could have retired ten years earlier....

If I recall correctly, the Firebird X didn't really set the world on fire, sales-wise? So what are Gibson going to do with all that unsold stock? When their dealers are refusing to buy more Les Pauls unless Gibson take back all those unsold Firebird X's? When they've spent all that money telling the world - and their investors - that this is the future of the guitar? They could discount, of course. But that devalues the brand. It's an embarrassing admission that they got it wrong. Far better to quietly gather them all up and destroy them. Just like all the major design houses do with their unsold stock. There's a reason you don't see last year's Gucci stuff in the discount stores - it all gets shredded. It happens all the time - quietly and without fuss. So laying them all out in a big line and driving a bulldozer over them while taking a video of same seems a bit odd. Maybe they genuinely were unsafe. Returns from the Chernobyl branch of Guitar Center? Edit: I was typing this when Mr Subsonic posted the video above - I haven't had chance/bandwidth to watch it yet but hopefully it sheds a bit of light on things
