Seems I’m moderating about 150 comments a day as spam, Chain has just downloaded some plug-ins to help deal with it which I’ll sort out tomorrow as I’m slowly losing consciousness at the moment. I’ve not long been back from a trip up to Butts Brow for a flick about on the radio, I got so bored I bought a pot noodle. I’ve already written all this tosh once and I can’t remember it all, the last lot dissapeared! Oh Yeah! I was meant to go to the gym with my brother and his mate, but I couldn’t get hold of him, been doing some running on the treadmill as it totally shags me out and I figure that means I may actually get fitter as oppose to rowing which can be a walk in the park…? Actually its not technically as its in the gym and even if it was in the park it wouldn’t be a walk! Spose it’d be a row in the park, even though it’s not real rowing. I should shut up and go to bed! Night.

I think I’m buying too much crap, it seems to be squeezing me out the room! But hey soon enough I will be moving into my new home and the huge expansion will mean I do not have enough crap to fill it. Got one or two projects lined up, need to repair the Marshall Amp, piece of cake as I expected, its just worn potentiometers, there is a possibility that I may need to change the reservoir capacitors on the power supply as they may have dried up, a hum can be detected at particularly demanding volume levels. And there’s Baldy Mark’s PC monitor that needs a good twatting every so often to keep the picture.
Bought a car, new to me… Cheap and cheerful but it goes from A to B. Now a bit skint as a result but at least I’ll be able to drive to the county court to file for bankruptcy.

Rahl insisted on playing the Ace of Spades on the easy level:

So Chain had the challenge to play along with the guitar behind his head!

It’s been quite a weird weekend, Friday went to Adam’s with Cam… with the aroma of a very cheesey lasagne we contemplated the rough edges of the world we are currently inhabiting, plus a few other subjects to boot. Saturday was a chill out day checking over my Sister’s new house and then Guitar Hero round Chains (pics above) on the projector thingy…(Video to come).
Sunday over to Hastings…

Got a new effects processor for my guitar, put a pick up on my acoustic, seems to work ok, will do till I get an electric anyhow. Also won that Marshall Valvestate amp on ebay, was delivered today but no bugger was in! I’ll pick it up tomorrow from the Hailsham depot. interested to find out just how far gone this amp is, hoping the Power Amp stage is ok and the screaching problem is down to dodgey pots or something. I’m quite sure the pots on those amps are quite standard PCB mount jobbies. It’s an anniversary today, exactly 20 years since I passed my driving test! It’s amazing how little can be achieved in such a long period of time.

Odd weekend! On Call but decided to hire a car, Brighton during the day, Why? I haven’t the foggiest! Today the sun was shining, woohoo! So drove up to Butts Brow (South Downs Area) for a wander, and wander I did. Thing is as it was the only sunny day so far this year, everyone else decided to go there too. Butts Brow used to be a quiet, almost unheard of little retreat for a minority and the occasional couples without a bedroom. Unfortunately now I had trouble parking being overwhelmed by 4X4’s and people wandering in green wellies, after parking I eventually realised the logic behind wearing Wellington Boots, just not green ones? Or maybe you need a 4X4 and a £350,000 mortgage before you’re eligible to wear them, who knows?
Anyway, the rest was quite uneventful, had to walk on the grass as the beaten track was muddy as heck, just had to keep an eager eye out for the piles of dogshit though, which I seemed to manage to avoid. Back home, gave Jade a lift into town with her mate, had a call from my Sis’ who had water pouring through the ceiling, turns out a flexy had burst under the bath and it was flooding the hallway bigtime, so cut off the mains supply and turned off the power, the rest is down to the agency…so I exit. Popped into see Chain and Angel for a cuppa tea and a demo of the net on the Nintendo Wii…Cool Bananas. And anything else is yet to happen!
