Todays - What grinds my gears *ARCHIVE*

[pepperami]

Well the Halfruads saga has concluded with a positive
The Cromer branch is fairly close to me.
So while I was out getting some essentials, I stopped off there.
I spoke to someone sensible who had some idea of what I was talking about.
Low and behold, he came back with an equivalent alternative
Same amp/hours etc etc.
Pennies exchanged and Pepperami walks away happy.

I can't decide wheter to buy a new guitar. My local guitar shop has a few Kramer Baretta Vintage guitars in stock. I've always wanted a Baretta, but I didn't have the money the first time these ''retro/vintage'' Kramers came by. Now I've got the money, but I'm very reluctant to buy a Floyd Rose tremolo guitar. Normally I would ask the shop wether I could come by and try the guitar in the shop, but due to Covid, and guitars not being essential for survival of the population, the guitar shop is closed, e-shop only.

Decisions, decisions, ...

Back Scuttler has such a shit life despite his acres of land, money and 32 bikes that he has to lash out at everyone.

Shows that money isn't everything in life.

As I remember hearing about it and seeing it with my own eyes, the main issue with floating bridges is to keep them level, horizontally with the instrument. There's no solid stop that the tremolo would rest on. It's held in its place by tension of springs that are probably susceptible to heat and rough usage. So if you lock it in place, all of the above is no longer an issue. That however raises a question, why pay for something, that you're not going to use.

To change whatever the current subject was, l need a poo after breakfast but l'm holding it in because with my hip replacement l had to buy a toilet seat extender/raiser & it squeezes your cheeks together which results in poo sticking to both inner cheeks & general poo everywhere when l wipe my arse & it is just one of the many downsides to having a hip replaced, so, my advise for today is always buy the heavy duty toilet paper & don't be fooled by that 2000 sections per roll shit, go for the industrial stuff........Anyway, l'm off for a poo now, so you girls enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

There are two ladies in my Tai Chi class who are both in their mid 60's who had hip replacements and were back practicing their form, including one-legged postures, within 3 months of the surgery.

Which goes to show there are more benefits to tai chi than simply becoming more powerful at kung fu.

Brexit.

Specifically where discounts could have been had by purchasing from EU retailers, but the new import fee's render it financially unviable.

Excellent.
