PS Any use for some Fred Kelly picks - 2 x med and 2 x light? You're more than welcome. I was gonna try bending them to size after heating but now I've ordered some large, I don't have to. Save 'em for a Friday giveaway, alig - one day your ship WILL come in  Good idea, Leo! I'm feeling lucky, punk... |

If I can find somewhere to throw myself round on my bike it sounds like a very enjoyable saturday. May drop him an email and find out when the showroom will be ready.

I have it on fairly good authority - Rory himself - that I'll be heavy with guitars at the end of the month.
Let me just say - WOO HOO!
Thank you.
Clydeslide - I think Rory's a bit of a bike chappie himself, sure he'll be able to advise on routes!

Great news, congrats! Really hope I can make it to Halifax.
Mountain or road? I'm a mountain biker so hopefully that...

Right back at you re: opinions and sound clips! Happy days, eh? Spoke too soon ... Dave is currently spending all his time ensuring that the stream at the bottom of his garden STAYS at the bottom of his garden... I reckon the prize is yours, alig |

How about this: 'We're both winners in this particular game, Leo.'?
I was reading Dave's post about his weather-based shenanigans - what a pain!
Never mind, anticipation... Just keep thinking about something else...
All the best. |

Hello all,
All things being equal, all roads should lead to just outside Pittenweem tomorrow. To paraphrase... I may be away from the Forum for some time.
Leo - nae luck, chum.

Very pleased to hear that Alasdair  - have a great time - and maybe, if you remember, could you remind Rory that a while back he muttered something about another Taran Road Trip this year.....? Look forward to your eventual return to reality with some drooling prose and droolsome pics. Keith |

Look forward to your eventual return to reality with some drooling prose and droolsome pics. Keith That thought had crossed my mind, Keith. I planned to mention it to himself. However, he does have a lot on his plate at the moment (not least putting up with a witless idiot for a few hours tomorrow...), what with new website/workshop/showroom ongoing. Hardly an excuse though... I'll report back with his response. Suspect there might be a pic or two to follow also... Happy daze. |
