awesome! nice to hear of other girls taking up, or wanting to take up bass, for one. i think that bass is an infinitely 'cooler' instrument to play, and she will hopefully get a few friends who play too and torment you with band practise in her bedroom! i think that anything to get anyone into any kind of musical instrument is totally worth every penny spent. x

hurrah! happy birthday basschat! congrats everyone. x

urgh, i wish i could have made it. spent all day fixing peoples sunglasses that had been dragged out of bottom drawers/glove compartments/handbags/safe places with parts missing and most of them unbelievably mangled, instead of being outside wearing my own. bah. piccies? x

sheesh. thats terrible! can't believe you are actually getting turned down because you are a girl. i like to think that my having skinny girlish fingers makes them nimble! definitely keep looking, sounds like you weren't 100% happy, so don't go back. i'm looking for a new tutor too, as it happens. (previous one was lovely, but lessons were moving way too slowly for me, and the guy was pretty down on a lot of the stuff i love). it should be you turning the tutors down not the other way around imo. [i]you[/i] are paying [i]them[/i]. good luck finding a new one... x

googlin' around, basically. can't actually remember what i was looking for at the time. answers, probably, but not sure what the questions were. x

[quote name='skywalker' post='170300' date='Apr 5 2008, 03:50 PM']Yep [/quote] its ok to mix an iron and a kettle up when you want to make a cup of tea, but it doesn't work the other way round. x

absolutely. if it was me, i'd go in there assuming they would give me a replacement. i'd ask them something like if they would prefer to replace the amp on the spot for a new one or if they would rather give me a loan amp while that one is fixed. get 'em with the ol' double bind. don't even let you [i]not [/i] getting a replacement be an option, but yeah, stay happy and relaxed! good luck, i'm sure they will come good on it. x

[quote name='Mrs Tinman' post='170010' date='Apr 4 2008, 08:57 PM']Mewsie - do you partake in extreme ironing by any chance? [/quote] it would be extreme to actually catch me doing ironing! x

cheddatom - WOW. thats extreme knitting. i do like things done to extreme, or on a large scale, so that gets a thumbs up from me. mrs tinman - thats a shame x
