Was a good one. Had to run off a bit early though.
Shame Mollie wasn't able to hang out due to the dreaded stomach bug.

Thanks for the cake JB, venue Dave and everyone for the birthday wishes.

Kdawg.... Make sure you let you me know when that Fernandes is for sale.
Ummm....

A great day! That Fernandes was a highlight for me as was the Iron Heart! And of course the 18watter sounded great as usual, as did JB's new speaker.

I'm so glad I popped down for a while even if I didn't really have much gear with me. Happy birthday Mark, nice to meet you Grant fab looking guitar and neck. Look forward to having a hoon on the iron heart next time maybe.

Shame to miss you Molly, hope you get well soon

Sorry for excusing myself. The day started with vomit. The drive was interrupted by vomit. And there was more vomit when I arrived (actually, just bile by that point.... having your tea? Sorry). I got there early and slept in the car for an hour but just couldn't face shifting my gear etc.

Anyway, nice to see you all, albeit briefly.

Would've loved to have heard CDog's rig. That PRS caught my eye too. Looked to have P90-size humbuckers?

Never got to show-off my new amp either. Bugger...

Iknoz... I wanted to see all the toys you've been relentlessly assimilating lately! That PRS is a Korean SE with Dimarzio 'magic' P90s, its a real hoot to play

Bugger of it is that I feel fine today. Had to be that particular feckin' day.

Had the Creamback in the H&K and my new Boogie with me (picked up the same morning) both of which I was dying to try out. Truthfully, I don't think I was safe to drive and probably should've abandoned the journey. Stupid of me.
