  1. Just been watching some videos by this amazing player. Looking at her and her basses she must be tiny.
  2. Dream a little dream of me - Michael Buble (most recently)
  3. Read this thread earlier before taking Shalla out for a walk. I noticed that my in collection of Bass Guitar magazine in the hallway issue 20 was showing - featuring Andy Fraser... Amazing or the power of coincidence?
  4. Just received a call from an agency trying to sell me loft insulation....

    I live in a ground floor flat!!

      I'm up the road from you. Well 12 miles anyway. I've had 2 calls from a so called Environment or Energy company trying to pass themselves off as a "national" organisation. "Hello, I'm "#aZVD" , your energy advisor." When I brusquely said "What's that about then",  he rang off. Pass the word on.

      I had a great call from O2 trying to re-new my contract. Hard sell fell flat when the guy said - 'you live in Rathfriland, ah, you must know George there, he knows half the town'. I said 'I guess I'm in the other half' and you could hear the air go out of his balloon.

      Reminds me of the time many years ago now that I kept getting sales calls to my desk 'phone trying to sell me windows. Eventually I gave in and went with their pitch. I can only imagine the looks of glee the sales person must have had before the penny dropped when I told him that the place I spend my time in requires about 40 windows. Per floor.. and there were ten floors....

      I must have quoted the Aviva advert ten times in our conversation and called myself the CEO of said company and..still.. nothing... 

       

  5. That's cryptic... Would you like to say a bit more???
  6. Two things help me to "time travel" - music and smells - both will take me back to good times in my past.
  7. Somebody was looking for one but I can't find the post in the wanted thread
  8. Coming on a treat....
  9. Hard to come by... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304044975452?hash=item46ca7e255c:g:~iIAAOSwYp9g1a~Q
  10. Collection only so may sell for a silly amount https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/194214905021?hash=item2d381c44bd:g:88IAAOSwvWlgy5~F
  11. Never heard of 'em. I thought it might be a misspelling but can't think what it might be....
  12. Everything I own - Ken Boothe/ Bread Labour of Love - UB40 Blue Suede Shoes - Elvis / Carl Perkins Knock on wood - Amii Stewart/ Otis Redding
  13. I was blinded by the light - Manfred Mann's Earth Band
  14. You're absolutely right - it is indeed very tempting - I think you'll find that, like you, many of us "trying to thin the herd"... I am...well at least in my mind I am.
  15. Lovely bass - I'd love to take it off your hands but I already have far too many 4 string basses which aren't being used. I don't expect it to hang around TBH.
  16. Gone Fishin' - Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong
