Thump

I have to give many many thanks  to those that helped this happen.

@Reggaebass you went above and beyond bro, big respect.  @SpondonBassed @GisserD @pete.youngand anyone who commented or gave support it was greatly appreciated and I feel grateful for it all. The language of love truly is music ❤️

I have a reasonably accurate comparison for what's going on lately. The show Parks and recreation, Jerry's wife. I'll try and link it (on my phone) . Besides from the first short scene with the doctor (sadly not an issue for me) but very much like the following one with the slack jaws and wtf how expressions. Went for a walk yesterday and sat having a giggle at people walking past double taking at the stunningly beautiful woman snuggled into my shoulder. I'm still gobsmacked about my situation,  now I'm not pinching myself just in case I do wake up

The sun/everything seems unusually bright and colourful today,  I didn't think that actually happened ❤️❤️❤️❤️

It was a walk to remember and i shall go to bed with a smile on my face. Speaking of which , faces touched, hugs were held, lips may have brushed a time or two. Gazing out over the water on a crystal clear night , and i kid you not , shooting stars. It was like something from a movie. Things will go slow as we are both coming out difficult times and nobody wants to hurt anyone. But goddamn. Ever see a beautiful woman on the arm of a nondescript gargoyle and wondered how? Well i have no idea, i can assure you it isn't money. Punching above my weight? it's not even the same sport. I need to lie down and stop pinching myself

Omg omg omg it's on... meeting her in about an hour. Think I might put lottery tickets on, can't believe my luck!

I have a phone call to make soon , wish me luck lord knows i need as much as i can find. Absolutely punching above my weight here by many , many times over. Chances of a favourable outcome are slim i reckon. I am notoriously oblivious to advances coming the other way , my mate insists this will happen and has repeatedly mentioned i am a lucky bar steward more than once. We shall see , fingers crossed here. Nervous as hell and feel 14 at the school disco all over again. Shiting it.

Thanks a ton guys, it means a lot to have people on my side right now, anyway there is still plenty of time for me to screw everything up. Added a couple of my own to our conversation,  think i went a bit too hot and heavy and may have come off as fawning and desperate which was not the intention. Silence across the airwaves for a couple of hours now. Here's hoping I haven't messed it all up 🫤

Thanks for the suggestions guys, all golden. Planning on taking a walk later this evening,  just waiting on a reply. It's a situation I haven't been in for over a 1/4 of a century,  I have no idea what I'm doing, not that I ever did. Here's to getting smoochy later 🍻

Lads, I'm getting replies like this

Congratulations! It's all going to change for you. Just like the nappies you'll be two knuckles deep in soon enough.

Just wait until they're on solids , particularly violent episodes will have you washing poop from their backs. It's really quite impressive how far up it can go

I'd add a NAD post , but everyone knows what a large orange box looks like. No way to record a sound sample , so that's out, thankfully.

It does sound great , have not had it past 50% yet as the Mrs was still in. Loving the blend function and may have to buy the separate footswitch for it. 

Might have to practice quietly for a while as i recently swapped to 5 strings and its trickier than i thought to adjust my playing. 

All said and done , i'd happily recommend them to someone looking for a reasonably loud and affordable MASSIVE orange box

Picked it up today , it is quite large 😲

This is really quite accurate

However , it arrived and all is well. NBD thread incoming soon™️

It's coming tomorrow 😁 Once the tracking info arrives I'll be like a kid with the seasonal santa tracker studying it every 5 mins torturing myself

Well they've investigated some of their new home , had a play with each other and the kids and are crashed out again in their new bed. Impossibly cute 

I wasn't aware myself, but here I am buying kitten stuff 🤷‍♂️

Guess the new bass will live on the wall mount in case of claw damage

Right now I'm looking forward to 5 degrees. Until I get there at least. Sat in the airport at the minute, not long now

It sounds like it, but really it was a very nice time with the family. However, I'm done with the sun for 12 months minimum. Just not built for this temperature long term

Ibanez btb for me, been eyeing them up for years and finally decided to go for it once I get back. Using this time to make sure 100% as I have been flip flopping on choice a lot recently, reckon this is the one

I come home about 1am on Tuesday. I may be just a pile of bones in a puddle of sweat by then. It's so hot they've closed the schools here this week. Never seen the like before. Ran out of t shirts quickly, 4 showers a day is not uncommon as is 4l of water 🥵
