  1. Yesterday in America it was 06/23.

    Today it looks more like 1923.

      To be fair they were already close to the bottom of pretty much every sensible league table where Big Nations are concerned. I feel sorry for the tens of millions whom this will affect, and despise the tens of millions who think this is Jeebus answering their Thoughts and Prayers, and the millions who did not vote for Hillary because of her emails...

      Indeed. The good old days where 'other people' knew their place - it's what the GQP have been after for decades and they are winning.

  3. Playing my longest ever gig tonight. Two sets for a total of c.2 hours. Back should be fine (debut of sub 7lb Serek Midwestern bass). 

  4. KORG US has announced the purchase of a majority interest in the Helsinki-based bass gear maker Darkglass!

  5. I see I've just improved my rank to 'Proficient'.  Can life get any better?

      You get points for Liking (or other emoticons) on others' posts, and for other doing the same on your posts. I think you also get points for starting threads.

  6. Both family cars damaged on consecutive days.  Law of averages loves me!

  7. I've done a bit of a rambling post on the cost of making stuff in the UK. If you fancy reading me being tedious... it's here : 

     

     

  8. My stepson has just tested positive, 8 days before he was due to leave for his fortnight's holiday in the Maldives. They've been looking forward to it for literally years. Gutted is an understatement.

     

  9. Moving to Warwick at the end of the month for a new job... and oh dear... Bass Direct is only 3 miles away from my new front door... hiding my wallet now!

      Eek! Just convince yourself they're only exactly during your work hours!

  10. On my way to see The Chameleons 🙂

  11. My Moollon P-Classic was an excellent bass, but I've just had it properly set-up and now it's just even more wonderful!! 🙌

  12. Things you get told on Facebook groups:

    Apparently, saying that I wouldn't shed any tears if a pair of child torturers/murderers got the sht kicked out of them in prison actually makes me a worse person than the two killers themselves.

    Blimey. All this time I thought I was a bit of a bleeding-heart pinko lib, but it seems I'm an absolute rank amateur.

      Oof. Sense of reality bypass there. I am pretty damn liberal and think prison should reform and rehabilitate as much as possible but there's a difference between Bad People (the aforementioned) and People Who Do Bad Things (the reason for most robberies, thefts etc. could be fixed with better drug education, social funding for reform and so on and so forth).

  13. Greater love hath no man for a woman ... I have just sat through the first two episodes of the Sex in the City reboot. "And just like that" with Mrs C. This is not bass related but I felt the need to share my pain

      Yeah - a lot of shows end up this way. Friends was the same, and How I Met Your Mother.

      "Terror is the secret to a long and happy marriage (allegedly)"

      Isn't it Fear and a comfy chair? No wait, that's the Spanish Inquisition...

       

      I recall the first couple of series of the original SATC being good, sharp and funny - but it quickly became pretentious and look how confused we all are once it became a 'sensation.'

      The movies were a predictable mistake. The reboot is like an ageing ban's not-quite retirement tour (someone needs to pay for hip surgery...)

      Oh well you dodged a fast-pointy object there then; that’s awful. Bet it plays like rancid margarine!

  17. My first cold for 2 years. Bleugghh.

  18. Stop posting Wal basses for sale please. Thank you. 😁

     

    I could afford one but don't want to spend that much on a bass. The wife would skin me alive. Stop tempting me.

  19. Just typed ‘live environment’ in a thread but autocorrect decided it should be ‘love envelope’ :facepalm::lol:

      Hah. Was it a First Large or Special Delivery?

      Bugger - fingers crossed for you.

      I'm so lucky to have no immediate pressure to return to the office. It's crazy how slack a significant majority of people now appear to be with precautions.

  21. Users asking how to hook up their monitor to ethernet. I give up.

  22. Moving production to the UK! Scary stuff. But Very exciting. Meeting with Retrovibe at our premises to plan out new production facilities and workshop. :D

      No more basses stuck somewhere almost at Felixstowe! Got to be a sensible move.
