Stub Mandrel Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Are people staying over on the 3 or the 4 Sept? I'd prefer to do the 3rd but it may mean a bit of work juggling and/or late arrival. 4th seems to be booked up at many places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bora Bekiroglu Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Hi everyone, I was away from the site for a very long time so I missed the whole convo. It would be great if you could write the details for this please. I get that it is on the 4th but where and what time? I can bring along my 4 jazz basses, a custom 6 string fretless and my upright. Not sure about the amp though Edited August 18, 2021 by Bora Bekiroglu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jebroad Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 If there's anyone interested in doing a 'show and tell', let me know. Would be fun to steal the same format from previous years. For those unfamiliar, this would be a short presentation on a piece of equipment, favourite cake, bits of luthiery or wotever really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldman Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Guys, I’m pulling out, I’m still classed as vulnerable after my hospital stay even though I’m out and about (carefully) and I’m under a tad of pressure from my Wifey and my Daughter. So it is with regret I am reneging on this event. I had built myself up to attend this “Bash” all through my hospital stay and up to this minute. But, Corvid being what it is, and the people who know the people who know the people who are possibly irresponsible non mask wearers are an issue I can’t ignore. And, the kids are back! I also have to rely on a lift from my logistics manager (Helen) who has done sterling work so far. Sorry guys, next time! Brian 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise I am not attending this* nor the SW Bash this year for similar reasons to yourself. *Actually, I will be at the Midlands Bash very briefly but only to pick up a bass from @Jabba_the_gut but that'll be outside in the car park. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickmew Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I'm afraid I'm doing the hokey cokey on this one. Turns out this is the only weekend we can go see the brother-in-law we haven't seen for a v long time (for the same reasons as everyone has had over the last 18 months), so unfortunately I'm now out. Was really looking forward to it. Edited August 26, 2021 by nickmew Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
