Today like nearly every other day in my shitty little life, I bought f*ck all of any interest Neutral .
The biggest excitement was that Galaxy Ripples were on special offer at my local shop, £1 for four.
My life is just one big fun-fair Laughing

I couldn't get away with an amp of that magnitude, my little Marshall is just enough to keep the peace.

^^^and most of the time I can't switch it into full power mode and even back in the day half volume was too loud to be stood next to all night..it's brutal.

Thankfully this has a clever powersoak that knocks it down to as low as 1/3rd of a watt but still uses all the valves.

Unlike my other amps this one is really quiet as in background hiss.
Oh I've missed this amp. Tonight we gonna get it on. Bounce! Shhh!

Boots too short. Back they go... Sad

I accidentally bought a secondhand cardigan on eBay, some old schmutter from Dorothy P Laughing ... sort of a Chanel looking thing.

Mustn't grumble, only £1.20 Cool

I was reading those magazines long before they invented Sloane Rangers Laughing

Edit. Well, Tatler, anyway. I was reading that back in NZ when I was about 13 or 14, I'd sit in the public library for hours, poring over old copies of Tatler, Punch, and Harpers & Queen ... desperate to soak up all the Londony things, there was never any question of me travelling to anywhere else but here. In about 1985 or 86 I was living in Putney and the local coffee shop had World of Interiors. I loved it to pieces the moment I picked it up.

Absolutely right, four Ripples for a quid is a little bargain,
However if that’s the sum total of excitement in my life, I’ve gone wrong somewhere?

When I get some money back that is owed to me, I might do something out there on the edge of life, like take a holiday Shocked Smile

I think I can help with that. If you're on here at 2:20 in the morning, whining about cheap chocolate bars being the height of fun for you, I'd suggest that wouldn't be a bad place to start working on improvements Laughing

On its MOT, my car had advisories for the rear tyres being close to the limit, so I've been keeping my eyes open for some deals.

Local seller was flogging four alloy wheels with tyres for £50. The alloys are a little bit scraped, but the tyres were better than mine, so purchased.

I have also been on the Game website, they are selling three months worth of XBox Live Gold for £14.99, with three months for free.

From a backstreet upholstery shop Limassol, today I ordered a custom-made cover for my Smart Roadster to protect it from effing cats, dust and infrequent downpours when it's parked up when we're back in the UK.

It's being made in heavy vinyl with a fleece lining, using 12 metres of fabric. They're charging me €150 with a 2 day turnaround Thumbs Up

Our local bar owner took us there, we'd never have located it otherwise, they made the cover for his Merc, it's lasted 12 years still going strong Very Happy

I was previously using an expensive Stormforce cover I bought in the UK, it lasted less than 2 years, before turning to dust Crying or Very sad

Don't get me wrong, that's a cheap enough meal, but don't the hooks sting a bit on the way out?

a jem jr off ebay and a presonus audiobox 96.

the guitar was set up like a bow and arrow which is probably why they sold it nice and cheap.(its a budget guitar but this was a steal)
a neck shim and some small truss rod tweeks and its shred tastic.

the audio box lets me play through massive amps in a big room through my pc and the neighbours need never know.
now all i need to do is teach my fingers to play what my brain knows they did 25 years ago.
