I am down with a lurgi, been wiped out and useless since Friday afternoon. I am useful for an hour,  useless for an hour, then need to sleep for an hour.  Repeat for the day, sleep at night, repeat.   

If I have to miss this bash I will be very, very, annoyed!

Oh no!!!! Here's wishing you a speedy recovery - i.e. before Sunday 🙂

I am also wiped out with lurgi since the middle of last week, but I will be fine by sunday!

That's the spirit!!

 

This one is shaping up to be the 'We Beat The Lurgi Bash'.

 

Mmmm... commemorative T-shirt anybody? 🤔

This is my normal modus operandi. Perhaps I'm ill and have been for some time (like 40+ years).

I can identify with that.

I have no lurgy and hoping I don't need the alternate "I caught the Lurgi at the Bash" t-shirt! 😉 

 

[Wolverinebass]

Sadly for you all, I'm still fine. I'm not even a vaccine denier or anything.

 

Looking forward to seeing you all peeps.

I have a pair of Eden 10in speakers taken from a SWR Goliath Jr v1.

These were the first SWR Goliath Jrs that were (apparently) built for SWR in the USA by Eden using Eden drivers.

They are too heavy to ship so if anyone is interested I'll bring them along.  FOC.

See you Sunday. 

Yes please, I'm interested in them if they are still available.

Thank you. See you on Sunday

Ho, sorry consecutive gigs in Bounemouth and London mean I cant make it. Have fun!

Maybe a hankey would be more appropriate? 😂

Sunday!? That came around quickly!

Is there a raffle or is it swap shop or something else? 

 

Happy to bring something down to be raffled off. I suppose a stroppy nineteen year old is off-limits? Two smelly and feral cats? A dodgy Scotsman? All suggestions welcomed.

 

Thanks

It's a raffle and thanks for letting us know in advance what you will be donating. I'll need to find a bigger table now. Or better yet 3 cages. Wouldn't want to put that lot together in a confined space.

I'd back myself to emerge victorious from that cage fight.

Mike replied before I did.

I have some small odds and sods for the raffle. 🤞

I've got a couple of effects pedals I'm happy to chuck in.

I think Mike's expecting there to be a raffle.

Thinking sone more about what rwillett is bringing it, I've decided to cancel the raffle.

 

Only kidding 😉

Indeed, it's now going to be a bookies, taking bets on the cage fighting.

I’ve got a few bits and pieces I’ll bring for sale or swaps if anyone is interested. Got a bunch of Schaller tuners, some bridges, TC BQ250, and probably some other bits. Got a couple of bits for the raffle too.

Hopefully not in what Blackadder described as “highland style”?

You should put in one of your creations, with a written note that it can only be won by someone with “geek” within their username 👍

I'm an idiot - when I first read the sentence I thought you were going to put an amp head on the raffle table and I nearly spat my tea out, lol.
