    Has your bass got a face?

    Noooooo, I don't want it to be sad :rolleyes:

    Please can you wrap it in something warm, pink and fluffy and assure it that it's safe with you and nothing bad will happen to it? :wub:

    [quote name='Bassassin' post='748622' date='Feb 17 2010, 04:26 PM']However I finally got around to taking some pics of my Lace Helix - and when going through them, was struck by the realisation that it looks [i]exactly[/i] like a fluffy little baby seal cub, flinching as it waits for the cudgel to descend:

    [size=5][b]And once you see it, you can't un-see it[/b][/size]. I was intending to swap the knobs for wooden or metal ones, if I could find the right style - but that would be like plucking its little eyes out.

    I'm so glad it's not white.

    You are a wrotter! :)

    [quote name='Tinman' post='745101' date='Feb 14 2010, 06:44 PM']I you look carefully you can see something that looks a bit like the characture from Munch's "The Scream" (Back of the bass at the bottom) :)[/quote]

    Nooooo, its a springer spaniel! Don't forget the sloth sat on top of the bear's head and the rhinoceruseruserus (the whole of the front !) :rolleyes:

    Help - I've run out of space and need to store Bass Amp Cabs and Guitars outside in shed!

    [quote name='shippo' post='737152' date='Feb 6 2010, 01:18 PM']Please no more suggestions stating that I store it elsewhere as that isn't a viable option.[/quote]

    Well I'm going to be awkward anyway! :)

    Is there nothing else that is currently in your apartment that could be moved to an outside area to give you more space inside? People often keep stuff like fridges, freezers, tumble dryers etc in sheds so I wondered if with some creative moving around there might just be a way to keep your gear indoors?

    [quote name='SteveK' post='730596' date='Jan 31 2010, 02:02 PM']Excuse my ignorance here, this is not something that I've needed to give much thought to.

    But, shouldn't we, the British tax payer, via our government, via the British Embassy in Brazil, be arranging and paying for repatriation in this kind of situation?

    If not, then we/they bl***y well should.[/quote]

    I sincerely hope this reply is not disrespectful, I just wanted to address the above.

    The question is, where do you (we/ the UK government/whoever?) draw the line? Sadly, Tim did not have travel insurance which is designed to pay for exactly this sort of thing. I have read media accounts of people having to remortgage/sell family homes, borrow from friends and relatives or beg the same people for money because a relation or friend has either fallen ill whilst abroad and needed expensive medical care/medical repatriation or has sadly died overseas and the body is to be repatriated. I'm sure that there are many more cases of this sort of thing that simply go unreported, Tim's case, whilst undoubtedly tragic, is far from unique.

    B.I.L.F.

    [quote name='MacDaddy' post='730156' date='Jan 30 2010, 10:29 PM']HELL YEAH!

    I've actually played that and it plays as sweet as it looks. If Jon hadn't made me a custom I would have had it :wub:[/quote]

    Oh dear Lord, is this on Jon's website? Gonna have to hide Pete's lappy! :) :rolleyes:

    Hey Al, do you really think the average person is going to notice this, and even if they are switched on enough to do so, they will certainly not hold it against you.

    I've watched Pete playing live for years, fluff ups 'n' all and the fluff ups matter not - he's out there doing what he loves, and doing it for me as well as himself and I love him to bits for it.

    Ceri will be so proud of you - have a ball mate! xxxx

    Damn, caught off-guard

    [quote name='fatback' post='726413' date='Jan 27 2010, 03:03 PM']This thread is making me think 'what are we afraid of? Are we mice or men (and women)?

    I guess the biggest fear is that if you're rumbled with a new bass she'll retaliate by buying totally unnecessary things like food and clothes and stuff.[/quote]

    ....and this thread is making me think 'no wonder so many relationships end up going down the pan when people can treat their so-called loved ones with such contempt/lack of respect/dishonesty etc' :)
