Same here Ivor. The world is short of real characters, and you are definitely a character. My day spent with you and Frances was one of the most enjoyable of the year for me. Next time I come over, dinner is on me. Have to be MacDonalds though, money is getting scarce. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mr Ken....You can afford the best restaurant available....Me well....The say old dogs like anything.......I'm defiantly getting old and grumpy....I got a phone call ,to-day from a guy in the USA ....... He read your last post....He said , that old guy ken ,.........must have been a Sargeant in the military.........Seems this old thread is spreading far and wide.......Hell ,....it really, ... was only a wanted ad, .... for a Pickup......after the dressing down I got.........The guy in the USA figured I needed a pickup,........But if you dish it out ...I say you have to be able to take it back....I am taking it all on the chin....So with that in mind....... We will be going to the best eating house, and I'm having the most expensive meal on the menu.......AND I'm bringing my mate Malcolm, ....from Scotland ,along with me.........Without his Skirt of course.......Malcolm and me have been worried sick about all this stuff.....He is that badly failed ,..... He has now got more dimples in his cheeks,... than there is in a pound of Tripe...and If I get anymore wrinkles in my forehead ...... I will be able to screw my cap on....

In the meantime...I suppose if you live in the South of England , with the idle rich. ... Nothing to do and all day to do it.....
Yes Sir Sargent Ken...You have it made

Well you've made 12 pages with your want ad - pretty good going Mr G. Actually, I nearly rang you for a loan today Ivor, as Spence was not in. I had to buy a new second car today and I'm proper skint now. :o .

I was going to buy the new guitar from MSA which you say plays itself, but now I will have to make do with a Sho~Bud Maverick. It's 'orrible being poor. :lol: :lol:

Mr Ken....I have to tell you the loan would be out the question...I just spent the price of two new MSA guitars on a generator...I am now trying to connect it up to my workshop...That part is costing me the price of one of those Show Pro guitars.....Anyway........How do you buy a new second hand car in the UK ????? .... I thought they only sold those in Ireland......I called MSA to-day...Kyle still not working the full schedule.......
The man in the red coat is not calling here ...He's going to your house ...So , you will get all the good stuff

IS ANYBODY GOING TO THE DUCK DO...for CHRISTMAS

Ivor
If you read my post again I said a new second car. I thought I would get a roadster for the wife and I. At least I would be able to keep up with you in your Lexus V12!! It gets delivered on Monday. :D

That proves Malcolm and I were right on the money...We always new you were a very wealthy old boy............I'm sorry, I read your post wrong.....As you can see from the posts I make....My Grammar and spelling are even worse than my attempts to play a steel guitar....Please be patient ..I will get there......Some day....
Almost got my generator wired in....No more worries about power failures here......
Any idea who is playing the steel ? ...When you just turn on the Show ..Pro website....Super tone ...I have the Show Pro CD...Some great playing on there....I also have the DVD...An evening on E9 th with Lloyd and Tommy.....Its hard to go past the Lloyd tone, ......Is That the sound you are always looking for ?
