TOTES! FRICKIN, BLOODY TOTES! My bladder has just exploded due to the huge pressure created by my boiling urine.

Shamelessly borrowed from the reggae thread. I’m loving this...

I know we’ve kind of derailed the thread somewhat (welcome to BC, everyone) but I’d like to add ‘sleeps’ to list of modern day parlance - boils my p155!

I’m afraid so; sozzles 😆.

Oreo, British? I think not. Similarly, Choco Leibniz (although they are delicious).

Time drop another grenade in the room - sozzles.

That is brilliant!

Voted. Is there a prize for being first? 🤞😁

Whilst I'm not an encyclopaedia of music/songwriting talent, I have been around a goodly while and I think I have had exposure to a very wide range of music throughout my life. A quick scan through and I hadn't heard of about 10% of them, whilst there are clearly some people missing. Lists eh, whatcha gonna do?

If these are not fit for purpose, soldered or not, they should go back. Take it up with Wilkinson perhaps?

Not before time!

Alder. Warmer sounding than ash, lighter than mahogany (if you subscribe to tonewoods of course). Standard, vintage Fender fare.

A Serek Midwestern has just popped up in the for sale section. Closes eyes, sticks fingers in and hums loudly. 😬

Ooh, they look interesting, I feel some measuring and a potential purchase coming on.

Damn you! I want a toasted cheese sandwich now. 🤤😂

Alan Spenner doing his thing with Roxy on his Wal.

Ezbass shuffles off to the ‘posting without reading’ thread.

Ah ha! You have fallen into my elephant trap 😂. This is a long running gag/argument on Planet Rock. The cause of a moonbow is reflected light from the Sun, so it’s not actually dark, just nighttime. To create a rainbow, light needs to be refracted through water, dark is the absence of light. Semantics, I know, but good fun. Speaking of Dio and his lyrics: “Ride the tiger, You can see his stripes but you know he's clean. Oh, don't you see what I mean?” No, Ronnie, I don’t .

Just 10% ? Hopefully, a typo .

Surely someone must have mentioned Dio's - Rainbow In The Dark in the last 13 pages (no, I'm not going to go back read it all, you can't make me! 😂)?

Welcome back to the fold. I had to read your intro twice as I was wondering how one accidentally joins the Navy . Not a lot of room on ship for a bass, the pits are tiny for a junior rate (my daughter is an RPO so I have a secondhand insight).

I' have this coming up next weekend, except that after meeting up and doing a run through, we're streaming live 😬. However, band members (well at least me and the drummer) have been practising along to the originals ('80s covers) to make sure our chops are up to snuff.

I have to say, I play less when I'm depressed and is often an indicator that I'm in a downswing if I hadn't already noticed it. Funny thing is, once I make the effort to pick an instrument up, it brightens my spirits, if only a little bit and I'll take any lift I can get. The section highlighted in bold is key. Once I figured out that I have cyclothymia (bi-polar lite) and talked about it with anyone, not just professionals, it helped. Prior to this, I just thought I was a miserable git and that work was getting me down; not so much it seems in retrospect.
