  1. Trying to think of anything endorsed by anybody ... that would influence me to buy whatever it was....

    Nothing comes to mind...

    For example seeing Carling all over Celtic or Rangers football strips would actually make me less likely to buy it ... that and the fact its shite...

    Same for most endorsements even for people I admire...

  2. I totally disagree with however said "Don't got to Krakow, I thought it was a fantastic city really beautiful and we visited Auschwitz which was a life changing tour and something everyone should do. Harrowing but its something you wont ever forget.

    Rome is far and away the most fascinating city I've been to. Second was Florence, Milan is too industrial best avoided unless you like fashion.

    Flying from Aberdeen limits you quite a bit, but Lufthansa now have direct flights to Frankfurt worth considering for Germany ... I never got to see Frankfurt we just used it to get to Warsaw, which I'd love to see again. Lisbon is also a great city and the seafood cafes are superb.

    Personally I'd like to visit Istanbul.

  3. I have a classic Les Paul... its a cracker a light sunburst like iced tea or similar, the neck is fantastic... as Ronz says its a nice thin neck I totally love it ... and its never for sale.

    If played quite a few Les Pauls and I think mine is the best...

  4. I did, but the fall doesn't slow down. They fall. Then the fall is instantly broken. Snap! He doesn't bring the fall to a slow gradual stop, does he? Pretty sure he doesn't. They just halt at what looks like full speed, regardless of whether or not it momentarily pans to someone allegedly holding the rope. It showed some guy to the climb before Bruce Wayne did it. I actually thought it killed him when he fell. I realised it didn't kill him when Bruce Wayne had a few goes.

    Where's Dubya? He knows ropes and falling and safety and stuff.

    You are making the mistake of assuming that the film is real life .... its a movie ! and one based around a comic book... normal rules don't apply... But it was still a heap of shite...

  5. I fully appreciate why some people would think it was shit, but you can't fault Michael Caine's performance! Yes, it is your opinion, but you are still just wrong.

    Nah I'm correct and you're wrong ! Caine is well quoted of often doing movies that have no artictic merit he only does them for the money... An honest thing for him to say, and in this case he was obviously doing it for the money. :p

  6. In perfect working order. Not had much use at all.

    For a 10 Watt practise amp this actually sounds really good ! it has a surprisingly deep rich tone. Also a headphone output socket so you can practise without disturbing the neighbours or parents.

    Also a CD/Ipod input jack so you can play along.

    Ideal for beginners.

  7. Superb ! I had a similar experience when my pal and I went to see Ian Hunter play in Newcastle back in 1977 or 78... long time ago. Anyway my mate Jim was a big fan of Mott the Hoople so he talked me into driving down there. We arrived in Newcastle early so we headed out to the gig venue (Playfair ballroom ?) and there was the great man plus band doing the soundcheck. So we just went in and listened! no-body else around, just me & Jim and Hunter et all, inlcuding Ariel Bender (sic) and other ex Mott band members... After he finished Ian Hunter just started chatting to us, what a gent! gave us a couple of beers, and invited us to have a look at their guitars etc asked us about what music we liked... Jim could barely speak he was so star struck. Ian gave us some free tickets and and some more beers! The gig was brilliant! Happy days!

  8. I lost my iPod when visiting Kualua Lumpur ... it was a classic 30GB, I'd had it from new... It was like losing a limb :down: I lasted a week before buying a split new 160Gb replacement... :music: now I need to buy some more music to fill it up.

    At no point in the above proceedings was my willy touched.

  9. Wasps = cunts ... skinheads of the insect world...

    I was once stung by one when I was innoccently browsing a shop window that had a display of Ninja Swords.... I suddenly felt a massive chest pain... I was convinced I was having a heart attack ... :eek: until I saw the skinhead stripey cunt flying out from underneath my jacket. :mad: My left chest swelled up and I had a left breast ... :woohoo: sadly I couldnt play with it as it hurt too much (I did try). This awful fate was only solved by drinking a bottle of cool white wine, followed by much beer. Result was a hangover of biblical proportions but not a sign of left breast.

    I reccomend this course of action in case it happens to you.
