discreet

But wait! If you pay off your credit card, you can use it to buy more basses and amps! Genius! No, don't thank me now - just let me know when your NBD and NAD threads are up. Thanks.

Well... I can only advise you. If you're not going to have wicked fun and enjoy yourself, there's nothing I can do about it. Go on, pay off your credit card, see if I bloody care! Dull! When you're on your death bed you'll wish you'd bought that Fender - I know it!

When I died there were all sorts of things I wish I'd done and hadn't. Don't be like me. 

@Bigwan Just get that bass bought, already! Don't listen to the dull old feckers on here, they're half-dead! If you tried to show them a good time they'd run a mile! Buy that bass! Have fun! I insist! What's the worst that could happen?? 

Edit: Or at least give me the money - I'll buy the bass and you can borrow it!!

Bloody hell, what's all this?? If it's a windfall you didn't know you were going to get it, did you? So it's 'as you were' with the credit card and all that, anyway. This is a message - it's God's way of saying, 'My son - buy that bass you were after, and with my blessing!' You can't argue with God, can you?? Go nuts! Go nuts! Go nuts! You're only on this planet for a short time, have a bit of fun! 

@Sibob I know nothing about it either, so maybe they can!  But to cut a bevel round an irregular shape would be tricky, no? Again I don't know, being a Luddite. It used to be all trees round here... 🌳🌳

@kodiakblair Good idea re HB stock template. And guard cutting wheeze. Presume you'd still need to bevel edges for a 3-ply? Not difficult with a Dremel. Or a file.

I take it that the guard is a one-off and not a standard P shape? You could always buy a sheet of decent tort and cut it yourself.  

Bargain!

@SpondonBassed My Tena Lady covers a whole coffee table, but she's quite a big girl and it's a very small coffee table. Glass-topped too, but we probably don't want to get into that on a family-friendly forum... as for charging, I have to put the bins out on Monday nights.

If you're doing occasional stools I would suggest Tena Lady Large at the very least. Have to say though, when I produce occasional stools the last thing I'd do is stretch my scrotum across it. That's making things much worse for no good reason.

That's it! A scrotum tattoo - 'may contain nuts'.

Or... 'If you can read this and I am 15 or under you are probably on the sex offenders register. Please go away.'

A sustainably-sourced vegan unicycle. It also helps if you look like a Victorian butcher...

What I really dont like are facial piercings. Which probably makes me tragically unhip. Too bad.

I could get tattoos of my eyes done on my eyelids and pretend to be paying attention when the current mrs discreet is rattling on. Though I suspect that might be a little bit painful...

I like the idea of getting a tat, mainly just for the experience of having one done. But I know myself well enough - whatever I chose, I'd bitterly regret it at some point.

Too late!

Yeah, like that.

@JapanAxe Definitely. Looked around just out of interest and Direct Line were competitive. But they wouldn't do monthly payments and their excesses were, uh... excessive.

I would immediately have given a stern lecture on unconscious bias.
