  4. Car insurance renewal quote just landed.

    Last year, £376.

    This year, £635.

    I don't bloody think so.

      Last year for me £270

      This year £367 was the renewal quote, which I managed to get down to £336, and couldn't get anywhere else for cheaper.

      But your quote 😳

      Pretty sure your current insurer doesn't want you on their books next year with that quote.

      I was expecting a big jump, but it actually went down a few quid!  This is an Admiral Multicar policy for me, my good lady wife, and my 23yo daughter.

  5. I wonder if the organiser's mate knows that he's playing for free while other players will be getting expenses money? And to address the original point -- yes I share your concern, it's a very weird situation and as the person arranging the dep I would have been just as unhappy with and embarrassed by it as you are. (Also, this £100-behind-the-bar nonsense needs sorting out before you play there again, but as you say that's a whole different subject.)
  6. Can people: a} stop biting lumps out of each other, and; b} stop invoking the B word please? Thank you ta.
  7. Agreed. We should do one last year and then give it up. For our last entry, the song should be called "Yeah We Get It, You All Hate Us".
  8. All Time High - Rita Coolidge
  9. The instrument I've had for longest is my first ever bass, this '64/'65 Höfner Artist 2 that I bought from my metalwork teacher for £20 in 1982. Pretty much unplayable, at least one of the pickups is fubar. I really should get it going again, if only for old time's sake.
  10. Jesus wept. If I had 3k I'd be in the car right now. Sounds like an absurd bargain.
  11. Please note that trade offers must be sent via PMs folks. Ta.
  12. Help to clear up my confusion... ...is it pronunced 'hot one' or 'ho tone'..?
  13. We've all been there.
  14. Daughter's wedding on Saturday. Speech written, proof-read and practised. Suit collected from cleaners. Car getting valeted tomorrow. Fingers crossed for the weather.

      Enjoy the day.

       

      I read that Sylvester Stallone's now with wife No.3, his first marriage was rocky and the second was rocky too.

      Fantastic. The weather was amazing, a 24 hour window of glorious sunshine in the gloom. I've never seen my lass looking so happy. Managed to make her cry (happy tears) with my speech, so a result there too :lol:

  16. The 35P4 is a properly great pickup, it bellows like a horny moose. I put one in my Q4 and it transformed it beyond all ken. Absolutely superb. This bass is beautiful.
  17. Double Barrel - Dave and Ansell Collins
  18. I struggle to attain even a single μBootsy, to be honest.
  19. This glorious piece of music. https://youtu.be/b7x80iSz4nk?si=I2J-bL6UYNjlrDkA
  20. Top 10s, top 100s, 'the greatest...'s, they're all nonsense and this one is no different. Music isn't a damn competition.
  21. Oh good choice. The first thing of his I ever heard was Trashman, love it. https://youtu.be/wKMbKxsSrp4?si=nPDnGDTzCPPxevQ5
  22. Hi Does the £10 each for the wall hangers include postage? I'd be interested in taking both.
  23. No No No - Dawn Penn
