jammy - that 7-string is awesome, but i just can't get my head around that fanned fret layout!
i love guitars that use good woods. they just have an extra something about them, tone aside. i got rid of all my electric gear a couple of years ago (amp, pedals and guitars) and got myself a Larrivee parlour acoustic. it has a satin finish sitka/rosewood top/back and sounds great for a small guitar. i wanted the full Koa version, but my wallet wouldn't stretch that far! the short scale also means i can go heavier on the strings without killing my fingers.
i don't think i will ever tire of playing it...

if it helps, it's not the first time it's been locked up there. it was either late last week, or early this week, but it caught my eye with the downturned bars.

waiting at the lights on the Upper Richmond Road at Barnes the other night i had a guy half hanging out of a car about three vehicles back shouting "you fucking stay there boy. don't you dare ride off, you fucking wait there". needless to say, i didn't bother hanging around for the light to change to see what this nutter wanted. a bit further up the road, he went past me, still hanging out the window shouting "you fucking scumbag" with such hatred it was scary. it looked as though he was in a minicab, and the driver was giving me as wide a berth as possible (which was something at least).
i don't know why people do this - maybe they were just ignored when they were little. i took solace in the fact that he had hair like those x-factor twins... -
got mine today - great stuff, Superprecise! thanks :-)

this morning, spotted a guy on an old green geared racer with mudguards doing an (unexpected) awesome stoppie at the lights on Stamford St just off the IMAX roundabout. the back wheel must have been a good two and a half foot off the ground... nice skills!

I've been a tubenger and a walkenger today, and I just got In a black cab with a driver who was sympathetic to our cause! He said he admired me for riding in London with all the shit drivers (himself included). Granted, he blamed the immigrants and the learner scooter riders for the ills of the road and the lack of a pie mash shop in battersea, and charged me a small fortune for getting himself stuck in traffic, but I didn't get wet.
I'm not sure who the winner is here...

i'm currently doing 17.5miles each way, but i'm still getting used to the distance so throw in the odd train journey (with bike) if i'm feeling hung over or knackered. doing it fixed too, but it's across london so it's pretty flat...

the Judgment Night soundtrack is great.
also love the New Order - Confusion track from Blade...

strangely, i still have the speech on this PC from my brothers wedding. i've attached if it helps. it's a mix of generic and related stories, but i found that it flowed quite well on the day.
speak slowly and loudly. you might think you are dragging your feet, but a slow, well delivered speech is far better than a rushed one.
enjoy it too, because as someone said before, everyone in the room is hoping you do well. they will laugh...
oh, and the story about the fire is 100% true.... ;-)
