Sainsbury's are now stocking a very nice Kimchi, the Vadasz Raw is good, not sure about the Yukata version they do as not tried it yet, will report back after a tasting.
I cannot really justify buying another guitar at the moment and already have a great bass but have often thought about getting a five-string and having heard the sound of the latest Fender Jazz am thinking a lot more about it. Probably best to listen through headphones or with decent...
Sad news from Germany, the VW canteen will no longer offer Currywurst.

Still on my summer walk about but thought I would drop by with a bit of music, my top three songs with slightly less than normal titles.
1. Whoopy Snorp by the Residents.
2. (I want to be an) Anglepoise Lamp by the Soft Boys.
3. Kowalski of the Seaview has got the best hairstyle I've ever seen...
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of this Primal Scream album, Fender are producing a special Strat: https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/191119351275008--fender-custom-shop-30th-anniversary-screamadelica-stratocaster
Am rather glad they are not among my favourite bands or could have been...
It is a pity they are no longer made in the UK but Vox are still producing some great amps and with valves in, I think one of these will be on its way to me in the near future: https://voxamps.com/en-gb/product/ac30-custom-head/
Not long got a bass amp but thought this would go well with it and...
This is very old news but just in case there are others like me who missed it, it is quite useful. If you want a low latency distro but do not want the standard Studio desk top it is possible to add Studio to any of the official Unbutu flavours with this command line: sudo apt install...
Please note, this is a thread for guitarists, not cyclists :)
There have been a lot of good pedals over the years and some pretty dire ones as well. Not sure how good this is going to be, although some of the demo sounds from it were very interesting and as someone who likes SciFi and music...
Not a new member by any means but as am on my Spring/Summer walkabout and not posted for a couple of months thought I would say hello again. Hope everyone is doing well and Hi to all the new members I have missed while away, not even looked at the site for a month.
Not much room for an amplifier when you are on your travels and have found this thing really good: https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/14090411521832--vox-ap2-ac-amplug-2-ac30
Sound quality was better than expected and gives me the chance to practise anywhere without disturbing people.
Just watched the ITV show Made in Britain, this episode included a feature on MacSween's the Edinburgh haggis maker, worth watching if it is on catch up TV.
Find the idea of a vegetarian haggis somewhat amusing, although my vegan cousin says they are great. I may try one, their genuine ones...
Less than a month now until some places can re-open. Have booked a nice out of the way countryside site with caravans to rent.
Anyone else got plans for a post lock down getaway?
Mushrooms are a real favourite for me, put them in almost everything.
Have a few other things that are fairly regular as well.
Tahini, love the nutty flavour and there is always a bit that sticks to the spoon so you have to suck it clean:)
Basil, especially fresh, a good herb in most dishes...
Seeing Andjef mention Dripper as another name for Lardy Cake got me thinking about different names for the same thing.
I like the name many of my Scottish friends use for dumplings, Doughboys but one of my favourites, although rarely heard these days is for eggs - Cackleberries.
