It can't rain all the time - Jane Siberry

Yeah that competition in the water industry works great. If I decide I'm not happy with Wessex Water, I simply move to a different area to switch suppliers. I work in the water industry and think it should be re nationalised

I got a set for Christmas and fitted them to my p bass with Geezer Butler pickups. Love the sound and feel of them. Definitely much more than just a basic string coated black

Reform of the NHS is definitely needed but a US style system is definitely not the right sort of reform. Its a system which leaves people in severe debt after they get illnesses not covered by their policy. They also have incredibly expensive prescriptions, we worked out my wife's insulin and test strips would cost us around $1800 per month!

Because several of our current government MPs including the PM own a considerable value of shares in US health insurance companies.

I'm convinced the government are trying to make the NHS so bad that they can force privatisation and a US style system because obviously if you're going to copy any system you go for the one rated as 34th best

Feuer Frei - Rammstein

Where eagles dare - Misfits

Replica - Fear Factory

Counterfeit - Limp Bizkit Really dreadful song

Danger high voltage - Electric Six Whatever happened to them?

Atheist Anthem - Leftover Crack

Royal Mail is a business, their entire reason for existence is to make profit. If Domino's pizza offer them 1p per leaflet and they make a profit on that then they'll take the contract. Maybe if it was a state run entity and not for profit then they wouldn't take the contract. I remember when I was a kid doing my paper round delivering the local paper, they told me they made most of their money from the 50 kilos of leaflets that broke my back every week.

Loser - Beck

I've got 3 P basses and quite happy with them so I'll have an Ibanez EHB1505.

I touch myself - The Divinyls

Happy ending - The Strokes That's got to be double points

Probably not too good if you want a nice smooth jazz tone but if you want it bright and punchy then they're great. I'm getting some great punk tones

I got a set of DR Black Beauty strings from senior management. They sound awesome on my P bass. They look great on a white bass as well

Spread your love - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

Black hole sun - Soundgarden

Return of the mack - Mark Morisson

Return of the phantom stranger - Rob Zombie

Liar - Rollins Band

I failed. I had perfectly decent gear at the start of the year. Everything I needed but I still bought two Fender P basses and a Darkglass vintage overdrive. I did sell a Sterling Ray34 and Epiphone Thunderbird vintage pro. I regret selling the Thunderbird, it sounded amazing. Its with the current Hawkwind bassist now so I'm sure I'll see it played properly at some point.
