Old Gold

I can't abide bad things being said about spaghetti.  I mean come on.

I think you'll be really hard pushed to find a guitar without a solid top these days tbh.

Bump

Z.Vex Vexter Fuzz Factory for sale due to a new arrival. Great condition, makes lovely/fucking horrible noise.

Don't suppose you want to hash out a deal involving the Gretsch old son?

Fascinatingly, I agree with YoungA on that - can't go far wrong with a mid-range Yamaha really.

Would definitely worry about electronics later and just concentrate on getting a good axe.

Hmm... maybe should have left it at season 6.  Looks like Duchovny's aged a decade and pure dialling it in.

Revisiting Californication. Starting again from the beginning since I haven't watched it in months and I can't really remember what was happening when I stopped.

Cheers for the heads up on that... another something something to magically appear on my hard drive ever week.

Just checked the wiki episode list... can't believe it's still going despite it's fairly crap US ratings.  Excellent TV when it's on it's game though.  Silly Americans.

People who chop up there food in to smalll bits before eating it. Salad for one thing, spag bol is another...FFS! Cut and eat, cut and eat...there's no need to attack the bloody stuff like some sort of mad person.

Could be just me of course.

On that note....people who cut their food up and then transfer the fork to their other hand before eating.............learn to use the kit!! I blame it on Big Mac, KFC, Pizza Hut etc where people tend to use their fingers instead of a forking knife.

 

NOTE: Sorry if you have some sort of aliment that doesn't allow you to use both hand when using a fork and knife.

Can't not picture you sitting across the table from your other half while you calmly type this out on your phone.

Sounds like an extremely good reason to have a weekend of drunken barbecues.

The ever popular Jazzmaster is sold.

RM Page-1 is on hold.

Seymour Butts, Gretsch and the deliriously good Deering Goodtime banjo still awaiting a loving home.

Here's a video of a man who has had a lot of morning marijuana demonstrating the Goodtime.

We once got 2 bottles of wine wiped off our bill at LaStella because her main was too salty. They've went downhill now with their new revamp though.

Strangely they only charged us for the somewhat meagre amount of molten hot beer that we drank, whereas frankly I would have been pretty pleased to just get that knocked off the tab.  Suckers.

Went to Bread Meats Bread in Glasgow last night (not to be confused with Burger Meats Bun round the corner, which is consistently fantastic).  My old lady had a mega hangover and I'm a growing lad, so we ordered a massive pile of food and a jug of beer.  I'd only really heard bad stuff about the place, and the food that rolled out was pretty much in line with that:  a good concept served overcooked and cold.  And the beer was unpleasantly warm.  What the hell.

My dining companion stared broken hearted at her burger after taking a bite.  I soldiered on, because when you grow up with 7 brothers and 7 sisters, you don't mess about. Luckily, complaining gets you everywhere.  She politely told them the burger was ding and the owner wanders over with a new one (which was marginally less burned to fuck, but at least hot) and informs us that all the food has been wiped off our bill.  Good eggs.  Shame their cooking is pants.

Complaining!

In that case, my answer is bollocks. Carry on.

How do you get rid of Sky TV? Just phone them up and say "cancel tv, but keep the internet, cheers"?

I have a feeling it won't save you much money. My internet moved to Sky when O2 sold up, and the bill has penalty costs for NOT having the satellite. It's total bullshit, although I didn't want to get stuck in a contract for other reasons.

Jazzmaster is back on the table.

It does sound a lot like Big Country, and I like that.  I think Col is pretty bang on in his run-down.

If I had one real criticism with this band it's that you're really shite at titles.  Breakfast of Champions, Lenin Death Mask, American Irony... bloody hell.

The Gretsch and the banjo come with soft cases too, I should have mentioned.

The Jazzmaster has dibs on it pending a tryout. If it's not their thing, I'll let you fellows know.

The Hound did some quality swearing in that episode. It was a shame he and Arya were absent in ep2.

How great was that death though. I could have watched him wriggle about for another couple minutes. Guy has serious acting chops.

I have no idea whether it was the pie or the wine but if it was the pie it is even less clear who might have been responsible.

Thinking about it, it's obviously the wine - Tyrian's holding the cup at the end, looking guilty as fuck.

And I don't think it was Sansa. The Fool wouldn't have started evacuating her so abruptly. It could be him I suppose. Most likely the grandmother. She was well quick off the mark to shout for help.

The wedding was great TV. Was it the pie or the wine that got Joff? Did anyone else scarf any before his eyes popped out? Just that I remember there being a weird handycam looking shot after Joffrey sliced the pie zooming in on a bird that got sliced up. Maybe that was just to highlight his cruelty one last time though.

I hope your first non-failure is close at hand man.
