Bank Holiday Bass Buffet ...an invitation

[Born 2B Mild]

The forecast for Monday is RAIN.

Just thought that you might like to escape the weather/DIY etcetera and join me and Vic this Monday for a bit of banter, bass fondling and [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/2012/05/bank-holiday-bass-buffet/"]buffet [/url]biting.

Jill On The Till is sorting out a spread of finger food for us all to enjoy, plus some vino and soft drinks.

No worries if you don't buy anything ...just feel free to drop in and be sociable.

As all our neighbours are not working, we'll have the (free) car park to ourselves. But then there's Twyford train station next door for those who want to not drive (perfect for you Ped!).

Hope you can make it.

Cheers,

Phil

I like the emphasis on "current" there!

It's been a stinker of an April, officially!: [url="http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2012/120504_1.html"]http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2012/120504_1.html[/url]

I'd love to come down and say hi/play a few basses. Might have to do some work on Monday not sure yet, but if I can pinch the time I'll swing by!

Got to be in East Beds at lunchtime, but may well be free after, what time will you be there until? Would love to come along and have a chat!!

[xgsjx]

I can't make it (distance being one of the factors, the Mrs being another ), but I hope you guys have a great day.

Maybe a hint he might make it after all?

[dmccombe7]

Great idea. Well done.
Bit too far for me too.

All the very best and hope this idea catches on elsewhere.

Cheers

Lovely offer, but distance and gigs permit me from popping round.

10am until 5pm ...unless it's too much fun to stop

[phatkat]

Sounds like fun... only thing puting me off is the 1052 mile round trip....

[molan]

Excellent - bring on the vol au vonts

[daz]

I just check me lottery ticket. If I've won ill be flying down on Monday morning, only a 500 mile round trip for me (too expensive on the petrol to drive there, even with a lottery win)

If i don't make it, [b]Have fun![/b]

well this could be the ideal time to finally call in

[Chris Horton]

Thanks for the invitation Phil,

I can't make this weekend due to work commitments.
I hope you have a fantastic day

I aim to visit in the not too distant future

[Born 2B Mild]

Your suggestions please for the (Spotify) Bass Buffet Playlist for listening to tomorrow ...even if you can't make it down.

Looking forward to this, and meeting loads of new bass players.

[Hector]

Thanks for a great time today guys! Was lovely to meet everyone and a real treat to be able to have a pluck on some outstanding basses in such fine company.

Not sure I totally appreciate my new found lusting for F-basses though......might have to sell a kidney!

[Linus27]

Bugger, I have only just seen this. Would had popped down as I am only in Camberley. Hope you do another one soon.

[victor5string]

Was a good day today, was nice to meet you today Hector. Your right the f basses are really nice.

[Platypus]

Thanks for arranging this, guys. Was good to meet all, would like to have had a bit more time to spend there today.
