Oh yeah.. The fukin import tax... Geetar was £1,050. Case £150 and tax £180 £1400 was defo worth it tho. Just need to lower action a little and it'll sound and play like a foccin dream.

Well, those are some of the better ones. For every good painting I turn out, I do about 20 that look like a 3-year old's finger paintings... :lol

My hobbies? Sailing in Turkey, motorcycles, fettling motorcycles, talking about motorcycles etc...
I love aircraft too - especially WWII and cold war jets.
Re: Got any other hobbies? - nick crisp - 31-10-13
I think the Phantom will always be my favourite fast jet of that era Christo. When I was about 13, I went for a week to RAF Coningsby with the Air Cadets. As well as getting to crawl around the BBMF Lancaster, a couple of us spent an evening standing by the airfield perimeter watching the Phantoms take off - jeez, but those things were loud on full afterburner, they made the ground shake like no other aircraft I've ever seen! We also did an aircraft wash on a Phantom, and got to help the groundcrews on them in a hangar - I remember them being huge great things, and you wondered how such a massive construction could go so fast. I think they are like the big muscle cars of the aircraft world. Never got to work on fast jets while I was in the RAF though.

I've got a season ticket for Brighton and Hove Albion, I dabble in a bit of spearfishing and I also spent the best part of this century living in the Alps snowboarding.

Self doing hobbies are the best,,no relying on others to remember anything then.

Used to enjoy a wee bit of guitar, and own an xbox which never sees the light of day these days either.And for someone who only "dabbles" in guitar, I seem to have ammased far too many. I have 5 or 6 now. including these two, which I use the most (excuse the fingerprints :o):
My Takamine Acoustic
My Ibanez RG
really need to get round to selling the Ibanez. it rarely comes out to play these days either...shame really.

Re: Got any other hobbies? - mickvp - 07-11-13
ooft! a wee steve vai Ibanez there. nice!
Not sure really mate, I would take £400 for it. I paid almost £700 (and due to a mistake in the shop, ended up with a team J craft case and certificate from another guitar (mines is not a custom J craft model - just a prestige one which didnt come with a cert.)
The case alone is worth over £100 as you cant buy em on their own
