  1. I recon that is an astute call Kev ! I am just approaching 66 in 19 days and I don't even look up if someone is felling near me ( Knowing I am out of range that is ) It did not take long for the novelty of watching one hit the deck to weare off ! ?
  2. I thought there were a few 572 's about ?
  3. Its a tree for me . I remember felling one that was 3ft + at the fat end . Had a Victorian nail in the middle ! ?
  4. Happy new year Paul . With your outlook on life I know it will be bud !
  5. Put up a sign saying closed for Christmas . ( we are open 7 days/ week the rest of the year ! )
  6. The villain is the smack itself . Remove it and non of it would happen .
  7. Not on the backs of his hands and forearms it would seem ?
  8. Yes . You are right . My bad . ?
  9. Greek Brandy or a piss sample . Not much between them .?
  10. Hot off the presses ....Vesp back for a couple of days and already going to compile a list of whats wrong with this site and send it to Steve?
  11. West Sussex , South Downs national park to be posh ! In reality a village called Lavant .
  12. My instinct told me to light it last night , the temperature told me not to . I was more comfortable without it to be honest .
  13. And Monty Python the house of Lords
  14. Its all if Jonathan ... If your Auntie had bollox she would be your Uncle
  15. You will find that during those 50 odd years you have learnt absolutely zip when Vesp comes along ! Welcome bud , nice to have another old git like myself ?
  16. My Dad used to hold a PPL . ( he is 94 now so no way ! ) I have flown a Cherokee 180 and a French plane that was semi aerobatic called a Robin under his guidance . It was fun but I do get motion sickness . Doing steep turns in the Robin made me feel uncle dick !
  17. I have a couple of Tanglewoods . A shiny 45 and a matt 145 both semi acoustic " cut away folk " . I am a " 9s " man myself find them much easier to play and bend . I use Elixir Nano Web .
  18. Stop it ! There will be shit that you can do that other people can't for sure bud !
  19. Oh I can hear pitch ok and could probably hit any note bang on from any intro and be in the right key . My problem is smallish hands with short stubby fingers coupled with my accident when I was fifty ( metal left shoulder ) inhibiting my movement and speed up and down the fret board . I just love having them around if you know what I mean .
  20. I'm not much of a guitarist to be honest . My Dad bought me my first guitar when I was 11 years old . I'm just coming up to 66 years now . I might get the hang of it sometime ?
  21. Got a few additions since I started this thread . Pics to follow but they will be a Gibson LP standard Maple top ( 60s neck ) . A Gibson ES 335 custom Cherry also with a maple top . A very nice 1988 Gibson ES 175 all original and a well used 1981 but good Ricky 330 in fire glow ?
