Say it like the locals do. You’re right about Reading in England

Going to one tonight, I shall report

(thanks)

You’re quite right @Bass4real the place called Reading, UKis pronounced Redding London isn’t spelled Lundun Worcestershire also fails British English spelling makes little sense And I mostly blame the Romans

IIRC From the French verb savoir, meaning “to know” I am also a savant, not yet sure of what exactly yet though ….

Was that an auto-correct of “bagpuss”?

Yes i had one on a @Prosebass which the post office smashed despite nuclear war-proof packing he kindly made me another

And the deaf penalty. as in, being deaf would prevent you hearing them and so actually helpful

I do partly agree, playing bass is a mentality that your part is a piece of the whole cake, not the entire cake in and of itself. I think that’s why guitarists don’t nail it, they can’t take a step back backwards. Whereas bass players are more able to step out of the box occasionally

Yes, @Bluewine has got the hang of our humour now (he’s in Milwaukee, I think) and @dclaassen is resident here. You’ll get us soon enough, banter is always heavily cultural and IME pubs are different to US bars in some ways so some of the pub content may be a little opaque to you.

Come along, bring @Bluewine perhaps

Is this the five minute argument or the full half hour? @Bass4real see Monty python “the argument sketch” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_Clinic

And “musick” freaking peasants

Been there, not nice

I have spotted the winch hanging out of that room’s window, you know you’ll have to try harder than that @AndyTravis

No, that’s yours. Senility is biting hard today 😛

I’d stay away from Talkbass.com then, if I were you. “Argument Central”

The way I see is this: bumper stickers about your affiliations invite discord and arguments. If you keep your views to yourself (bumper stickers fairly rare here) no one is going to find a fast reason to disagree or dislike you. I view stating my politics as being exactly like driving around in a car with a pro-Harris /pro trump sticker on it. Keep it for the ballot box on election day.

Yes I’m sure that no one on here has ever tried that one ….

“Creative” is my middle name

Now stop buying stuff @AndyTravis or I’ll tell everyone here my secret name for you you know the one

F uck. busted …

No, really @AndyTravis A whole month, well done 👏

You’re fishing for a victim ….
