Yeah suppose I better write to Hall and Woodhouse. See if I can't get a few crates of building fuel on the house.
2 bottles to each pedal. I'll be hammered by the last pedal of the day.
I can just see it now. Up at six, one bottle on my weetabix. Get the next one down my neck whilst in the shower. Start the first pedal of the day at 7:30.

Excellent beer though.


Obviously the beer is used as a showering liquid directly from tap, and in some concentrated form as a shower gel? After all, we don't compromise! 8)

Yes - but actually that's even more impressive. Isn't it?

You ain't going to lessen my admiration, Mr Nicholas Ninja, so don't bother trying. :D

Special thanks to Twelvebar. I just do not have the artistic skill to come up with that fab logo. It was all him.

Thanks for the kind words Nik! :oops:
I'm just glad it came out as good as it did. Given Nik's description of the style (time period he was replicating, etc.) I tried to come up with something that would seem at home in that era. I feel a little bad, I've been so busy lately, I had a graphic almost done to flesh it out a bit. But given Nik's cool badger(which I notice isn't blue, could there actually be a squad of badgers?!?!?) it may have been overkill.

Ask 12B about our joint hobby shop experiences.

OK. Hey, twelvebar...?

Cheers - C

Well, I know Nik had a similar encounter, mine was along the lines of:

Me: Hiya, I need some waterslide decal paper for an inkjet printer, the clear stuff.
Clerk: Um, I don't think we carry that.
Me: yeah, actually you have a whole rack of it behind you behind the counter.
Him: Oh, which did you want? this white stuff.
Me: No, the clear, inkjet.
he hands me a packet of the white for laserjet
Me: No man the other stuff, there, on your right... no the other right, no up one shelf, no no , up

Me Looks suspiciously at open tube of model glue on the counter...

My experience was like this.

Me: Hello I'd like a sheet of white plastic.
Idiot: We don't sell that stuff.
Me: yes you do, I bought it off you before. (when I made my own pickguard)
Hands it over.
Me: Do you have anything like a rivet. I'm building a electronic circuit. I want to make a turret or tag board to house the circuit.
Idiot: No
Me: ok I'll just take these rivets for a model railway.
Do you sell any thick glues.
Idiot: No
Me: Ok I'll take some self mix epoxy.

What's the matter with these people? I mean I'm downright antisocial at the best of times. I enjoy nothing more than being left alone. This guys probably the same or 12Bar and I both give off a odour of 'Shopkeeper please annoy me'. All he wants is to be left alone to do his thing, let his mind take him to where he wants to be. Concentrate on his hobby.
WHY DID HE EVER OPEN A SHOP?

Could learn a lot from him. I felt like attacking him by the time I left.

Wow.... super saturated smooth fuzz hey... that sounds exactly like what I'm looking for in a pedal.

Killer work Nik.
