Sorry not to have been around much on Skype, but my broadband connection is so poor that it got a bit frustrating! I recently bought a new webcam, though, so would like to give that a try. Could do tonight, or tomorrow night - let me know. Would be nice to catch up with y'all!
Cheers!

Hi all! My S&P pro (bought secondhand) has a dark wood bridge ( think it's rosewood). There are a few unsightly white spots/marks on the bridge, possibly a drop of water has got on there & been left to dry ( I didn't do it!). Any ideas on how to remove these, please?!
Cheers!

Yes, technology can be a pain in the a**e (to use the British spelling)! Sabbath Mode!! Oi Vey, whatever next?
My Nokia phone is 10yrs old, and I see no reason to change it, unless it dies or gets lost...

At the moment it's "Something". A few weeks back I sang at a local event called "Beatles Day" - 12 solid hours of Beatles music performed by local artists (mix of pro and non-pro). It's a lot of fun...

Hi Jethro, welcome to Chordie from a fellow Brit! If I was a few years younger and had any useful skills I would have left for Oz too!
Cheers!

I have a 6cd changer unit, so usually have a selection from Steely Dan, Ry Cooder, Pink Floyd, The Who, 10cc, Kirsty MacColl and Eric Clapton...

Lucky you! You write really well, M.B. - that was like a really short short story! You should turn that into a song...

Congrats, Amy - it's beautiful! Wish I could hear it properly, live, rather than on a dodgy Skype connection!
Have never really thought about a using guitar humidifiers, are they still necessary even in the damp of the UK? Never heard of using rattlesnake rattles, either - I'm assuming this is as a humidifier, rather than percussion?!

Well, that was a lot of fun! Sorry you had trouble joining us, Roger, but at least we got to hear a couple of songs. Toots has a lot of really funny songs, though I couldn't make out some of the words too well! Very impressed by Joe (BGD), too - one hell of a guitar player! And I think we were all loving Amy's voice - my wife was in the next room and she loved hearing Amy too!

Should be able to make it for an hour or two, I think! We change our clocks to BST on Sunday (just BTW). Look forward to hearing that new guitar, Amy!

Have a great time, Mr Z! I'm beginning to suspect why DE is so named...

There's nothing quite like open-air music on a warm evening! At least the neighbours weren't throwing stuff. I'm a little green (with envy)...

That sounds amazing! I've sent you a Facebook friend request...

Good stuff, Jeff! Music certainly does bring people together - some food & drink helps, too! But American hospitality is legendary - especially in Virginia...

Ooooh, New Guitar, interesting! If possible, I'd like to start somewhere around 6-7pm (my time), so that would be 1-2pm with you. But if the consensus is for a later start I can just drop in for an hour or so...
