Religious door to door touting really pisses me off... I'm an atheist throughout and I don't push my beliefs onto anyone, believe what you want. There's a heaven waiting full of all your passed relatives/pets with all your best possessions etc, or a massive seedy brothel with 72 virgins waiting to nosh you off or whatever. I believe in science and evolution. I've just had the pissiest Jehovah whiteness at my front door get really mad when I replied to her 'facts'.. JW - I believe that there is a creator, who created all life, gave it form and direction and Adam and Eve gateway to temptation which has spoiled our way of life. The creator shaped our bodies, shaped the trees, the animals around us. How can evolution exists? We aren't evolving anymore, so why have we suddenly stopped? TB - We are still evolving, we're faster, stronger, smarter, taller, whatever we need to progress and continue we do. Evolution isn't growing another arm so we can do more, it's survival, and if we needed to be able to do a task, ones that couldn't would die out and others would survive to continue. JW (pretty mad she's been replied too) - Well your wrong. We never evolved, we've always been a perfect being to perform the tasks set by the creator. Evolution is a poor excuse for life. TB - So the creator set us the task to develop the iPhone? Cars? Planes? That's not a task, that's human genius through evolution, through tool use and learning/evolving to perform tasks with what was passed to you along the way.. JW - The book tells us that humanity lost it's path after the intervention of Adam and Eve which led way to temptation, and outside thinking which corrupted our life paths. One day the creator will give us the chance to correct our live and correct the earths shortcomings.. (I was bored of get by now) TB - knock on my door when that happens please.. Till then I'm good thanks. She started to walk away so I shut the door and carried on ironing (I know, right?) then she's posted 6 leaflets through my door?! Now, I said before, I believe in science, I believe humans developed from apes, I believe that most our illnesses etc came from us cocking up putting things where we shouldn't. Some all mighty god didn't do that we did. Just line us these virus and bacteria have evolved along the wish to do us serious harm. I don't walk door to door pushing that? It's not my right to try and lead people to believe what I believe. So why do others thing I want to become Christian or Jehovah? Leave me alone to iron my pants.

After the last few busy weeks I'm really, really not bothered

Looks nice dude, I love ash bodies. Been working on the USA tele the last few nights, sanded the neck and gave it a satin lacquer to smarten it up, restrung it and set the truss rod as the neck looked like a bow. Reset the intonation and saddle heights too and got it very close I think, feels lovely to play and sounds beautiful, such a sharper note then my Mex tele. When I removed the neck I discovered the body has Microtilt but someone's fitted the wrong neck plate and removed the grub screw so I've corrected tattoo, just waiting on a new plate. I know your all sick of pictures now but this is how my collection stands now.

I accidentally a 50th anniversary USA tele. Bought it for an absolute steal, neck pickup gives off no sound and someone's varnished the neck again for whatever reason. Plan is strip it, fit new 3way switch (this ones a touch baggy) and new pots, find what the cause of the dead pickup is (I'm suspecting switch), sand the neck down and recoat in satin clear coat then just spruce it up abit. It sounds beautiful thou even on these shitted up strings. I can't wait to get to it and get it right again. I bought it to resell but it sounds/looks so bloody good!

No pedal additions yet, I'm still getting to grips with the guitar, I don't need something else to throw me off . I'm very pleasee with the amp, it's got a fantastic clean sound. I haven't really played with the other settings on the amp yet.. The deluxe reverbs look fantastic pieces of kit, but at my level of playing I couldn't justify any more then my 400 budget. I was very impressed with how the Fender sounded over the Marshall and Vox I tried. The vox sounded good but lacked bite, the sharpness of the tones were lost. The Marshall on the other hand sounded awful, sounded no better then my previous cheap heap. There was no definate note, it was very muddy and distorted. Could clean it up a touch but it still sounded heavy.

Everytime you click refresh on insurance comparison sites it's another mark on the cars HPI history, generally these just go down as 'enquiry' or something, but enough of them can raise interest/suspicion. When I bought my old polo I had that HPI'd and the list was 2pages long ha. All was just insurance related though but was quite daunting on first glance.

Scrap the Yamaha talk. Went to another local store yesterday in need of a new amp, my cheaper then cheap shit thing is shit and cheap. Requirements were - had to be a good looking piece of furniture, sub £400, 450 at a push and a valve amp. I love the warm sounds valve amps give and that very slight hum. £350 later I'm the owner of a Fender FSR superchamp x2 cabernet blues and it sounds beautiful. Lovely warm tone with abit of drive on but on 100% clean its crystal sharp. Looks beautiful too in wine red with a cream cloth front.

They're the shittest things ever, I bought them for weighing out lacquer mixes and thinners percentages, they barely even turn on! -
That hair looks baaaaaantastic!

It's ridiculously easy mike. Just take your time and triple check before you crimp back together.

Anybody ant experience with Yamaha THR10C amps? I don't want or have the space for anything bigger then an 8" combo, and these yamahas look fantastic!
