    It was read out to me by our daughter, who's also not into Beyoncé.

    Seems that Beyoncé wants $155 for tickets to hear, but not see her perform. The seats have no view as they're behind the stage but you'd be able to hear her so... that'll be $155 please. Cheapest seat with some sort of view, albeit probably on a screen...$300. Can't help thinking that we're just so lucky to have people like this to entertain us.

    Oh, you didn't tread in it did you?

    Sold John some wall hangers and messed up the P+P and despite it being down to me (obviously) he was kind enough to add the extra postage. Top guy.

    The best Jazz I ever owned was a Roscoe Beck. However, it didn't have Jazz pickups, it had toggle switches, it had graphite rods, it had a hi mass bridge so in reality, it wasn't a Fender Jazz. I've no idea why I said that. You know, hmm, dirty knees, jumpers for goalposts, " is tea ready mummy?"

    Who's idea was it? In my experience, whenever someone says "maybe you and I can get together and work on that a bit" it usually means that one person, isn't happy with what one other person is doing. You'll either end up addressing, but not necessarily sorting the problem, (possibly risky) or spend three hours delicately sidestepping it. Good luck though, in principle, a good idea.

    Bought an effects pedal from Patrick as a present for a family member. Good deal. Nice guy.

    Bought a bridge from Loz, great to deal with, great price and great packing. Genuinely nice chap.

    Norm bought some books from me. Nice and easy to deal with, prompt payment

    Squier Bronco, 30" think the colour is called Torino red. Had the bridge changed like the newer ones but the original two bridge piece one is included. Plays nice, holds tuning well, weighs about as much as a Richmond sausage, ridiculously light. This is an Indonesian one, not Chinese. Sounds great, could do with a set up and a real set of shortscale strings. Truss rod not seized, and fully working. Comes with a not great gig bag. Belongs to a mate's daughter who's lost interest hence, I've been handed it to sell. Play as is or mod for a project. Actually quite surprised how easy these are to play. Anyway, there it is. They're about £160 new so £90 seems fair. Pick up from Swaffham area or can post at buyers expense and responsibility.

    Three books. Jaco, by Bill Milkowski (with the CD) 17 Watts, by Mo Foster Jazz in perspective, the background of the Blues, by Iain Lang (1950s?) All in good condition Can post if required, probably about £4 for UK as 2kgs

    Nine wall hangers, the type that's marked "UP" Left over from the days when it wasn't unusual for me to have 25 guitars and basses. They swivel so as your Fender head stocks don't dictate a wonky display 😅 One, has one rubber sleeve missing. £20 collected or £29 posted UK.

    So, not being a techie, if I change my BC password and let my phone generate a new one, will that automatically save that to the Google password thing and also appear on my desktop PC? Or do I have to physically put it in the PC?

    1992 Washburn Festival EA20WR. Equis 2 preamp. XLR and 1/4 jack outputs. Fabulous sounding guitar with a very playable neck. Neck wise it doesn't feel much different from my Tele so ideal for any electric skinny stringers that want to add some quality to their sound (😉) Fully working truss rod. Body is in fantastic condition with a lovely florentine cutaway for great access. Frets great, comfy low action (no buzz whatsoever) sounds lovely plugged and unplugged. Vintage hard case included (not padded so will be bubble wrapped inside but would ideally like collection as it's good to try before you buy. It's one of those guitars you just have to pick up and play every time you walk past it.

    I've now got La Bella white nylons on all basses, even a 5 string EUB. Had them on my 5 string Elite jazz but took them off when I sold it. Put them straight back on the Elwood 5a replacement. Just love the feel and how they sound. Also have them on my 4 string P and 4 string jazz.

    How about just dropping it for "Life in the fast lane" ?😉

    Back in our comfort zone after the hiccup last year. 2nd from last in the sack race 🤣

    I've heard hints of Life on Mars and Design for life so far. But I guess if there are only eleven notes....it happens. Now heard them all, has to be Belgium for me. Only one with a hook that was seemingly written to be accessible to a large audience immediately. All the others, self indulgent minor key Eurocrap.

    Great number, What's going on. Used to open with that in one band I was in. Still have the Album somewhere (On the boards)

    16 years old, in the Mildmay tavern, North London. We were going to get £15 That is, until we were told to leave after the first set as we refused to play "Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner" at 10.15 which was the landlords way of telling the punters it was last orders. We refused because we were a rock band, although the real reason was because we had no idea how to play it as we were s h I t😂 We were called LION and here is that band ( me on the left, 1968.

    I've got a pair of these. Top notch. Nothing to compare for the money. £650 is cheap. Especially in that condition.

    A grand? Wow, cod and chips for two at Rick Steins!!

    Don't see it as a problem as I don't sit there just looking at the top of the page. Once you scroll down and start reading stuff, it disappears up above.

    We're at the Warner's hotel in the castle. (Wife's 70th birthday) and that's what's on. Seems a bit weird then going out somewhere else to see a band as I guess I've sort of paid to see these ones already😄
