Wonder if the US will also be charged more for oil and gas that they buy from Canada.

Well, in American parlance, fenders are mudguards...

Depends which side of the street you walk. Come to that, it's also different for the keyboard player/singer/main man in the originals band I'm in.

It seems to have been pivoted about the centre point so the bridge end is lower and the neck end higher. Seems a strange thing to do.

34" four strings are the commonest and therefore the easiest to sell, though the flip side of that is that there will be a lot of buyers competing in the marketplace. Do they have any 4-string 32" basses that you would like to keep? And what about doing some research on Ebay and Reverb, and in shops selling second-hand instruments, to get an idea of prices?

A badge that Mrs Zero would wear with pride.

European countries are now starting to move towards Sky Shield - European (non-Ukrainian) fighter planes manned by European (ditto) pilots enforcing an aerial truce. If that happens, maybe Zelenskyy will stop trying to get Trump onside. Of course, there's no reason that Ukraine shouldn't take as little notice of agreements and contracts as Russia or the USA.

Something I wasn't expecting last night at the Cavern was for one of my old drummers to turn up. We were in a band together in 2010, he had to move away with work, initially to Exeter which was a bit far and then to North Yorkshire, so he left. It turns out he moved to Sutton Coldfield a couple of years ago and joined a band last year which is just starting on the hunt for gigs. They did half a dozen numbers last night and were really excellent. If you see Poppy Jam playing a gig in your neighbourhood, I recommend going to watch them.

Good. Love isn't always on time.

Boss SY-200. I was considering getting one, then one cropped up for a price it would have been rude to refuse. Have been doing some experimenting and finding sounds I can definitely make use of, which is nice.

There's a lesson for you right there. Warwick necks vary enormously - you may simply not have yet met the Warwick neck that suits you.

Bought a Boss SY-200 from @0175westwood29. All went well, slight delay in posting but I didn't have urgent need for it so no matter. Thanks Andy.

They look dirty to me rather than rusty. If I wanted a painted 4-string that was far too expensive simply for the name on the headstock, I'd consider this.

Two minutes was enough for me.
