  1. I haven't had Cadbury chocolate for years. They don't sell it here. My wife's just gone back to the UK for a couple of weeks and I've put in an order for her to bring back loads of Cadbury chocolate that I've been craving. Should I prepare to be disappointed? ☹️
  2. The guitarist in my band has a couple of these and they sound great. The tuners are green to replicate the original Gibson Les Paul tuners. I had the same on a Vintage brand Les Paul and didn't like them either. They just looked really cheap and tacky plastic to me.
  3. I was going to apply for this but there's no way I'm crossing the great chemtrail belt of north Devon.
  4. Vodafone - Exactly the same reason. For a long time in my life I never checked my back statements. When I finally did I saw a monthly £10 charge from Vodafone. I hadn't even had a Vodafone contract for over 3 years. When I disputed the charge with Vodafone they said I had signed up to an extended warranty. I knew this was a lie because it's something I never have, and would never do for any product. So I asked them to produce the contract as proof. A couple of weeks later I received a cheque for just under £500. It was a nice little savings scheme I didn't even know I was in. But it makes me wonder how many other people have been ripped off without realising it.
  5. Technically my highschool band from 35 years ago never broke up. We just discovered girls and forgot we were in a band.
  6. I've only heard good things about Jet guitars. Certainly one to watch to give Harley Benton a run for their money.
  7. I teach English online via webcam and my office is my studio with all my instruments in the background. I constantly get asked by my students about music and often tell them all about my band. We haven't played together in almost a year but according to the old YouTube channel we're now very popular in China. 😆
  8. Somebody should probably let the harp players know they're wasting their time.
  9. Wow that's a coincidence. My band has never appeared on LWT either. What a bitch!
  10. "Rock music is an abomination to God" That's ok. He's not the target audience. 😆
  11. I'm currently battling with them to claim my mother's life insurance, and had the same problem 2 years ago when my Dad died. They are utter scumbags!
  12. Whetherspoons. Not because they're supposedly full of pond life. I never found that to be the case. I used to work away from home, live in hotels all week, and at one time or another went to pretty much every Whetherspoons in Britain for a cheap and cheerful meal and a pint or two. But since the B word that shall not be mentioned I would never put another penny in Tim Martin's pocket. The man is an absolute bell end.
  13. Judging by that list it would appear that I'm American. Most of the stuff listed on the Brit side I can't stand. Especially the late 80's early 90's Manchester crap like Oasis, The Happy Mondays, Stone Roses etc. They were all rubbish (of course only my opinion) Whereas a lot of the band's mentioned stateside are amongst my favourite bands of all time. While most of my classmates were listening to Oasis I was listening to Alice Cooper.
  14. I'd be well pleased with that. Abomination to God would be my first album title.
  15. Yup. As above. I've used Fiver before. Find a freelance who's general style you like and go from there.
  16. I'm stealing Funky Liquid as my new band name. 😂
  17. I'm generally not a fan of Fenders but even I like that.
  18. Nope. As part of my day job back in the UK I travelled all over the UK living in hotels for about 6 years. Not something I ever want to repeat. I can't imagine anything worse now than being dragged around on a bus from city to city and never being at home. Truth be told I can't even be arsed with gigging at all. Unless it's something local with an early start and early finish like a support slot or a nice afternoon party. I'm happy at home with my feet up. I also can't imagine anything worse than being famous. I'll take the money. But you can keep the fame.
  19. I think it's more important that we make it a rule that the price is listed up front in the title. That way I don't have to keep lusting after basses I can't afford. 😆
  20. Mitch easier just to use an actual fridge. You can buy the stickers.
  21. The description is almost as funny as the finish. Talk about verbal diarrhea. This custom electric bass guitar boasts a burnt wood natural finish and a precision style. The solid sycamore body and long scale of 34 inches make it perfect for right-handed players seeking a high-quality instrument. With a 4-string configuration, rosewood fretboard, and 20 frets, this bass guitar delivers exceptional sound quality for both beginners and professionals. The neck is made of maple, adding durability and a polished look to the overall design.Crafted in the United Kingdom, this bass guitar is a must-have for any musician looking to take their talent to the next level. Whether you're performing live or recording in a studio, this instrument is sure to impress. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind custom bass guitar.
  22. Missing both wheels. You'd need a strong back to move that bugger.
  23. No longer available so it looks like somebody's had a punt on it.
