    Morning all, just saying hey and introducing myself as the new guy for now..... "Hey"

    Q1: I'm usually the guy who spends 30 mins giving birth to a username so a while ago I attempted to settle on Sole for as long as.. I guess it's a slightly more pretentious way of saying 'One' or 'Individual' I think its stuck by now?

    This is absurd.  You don’t know what you’re talking about.  It warrants combat.

    Welcome @rexob - though I find it worrying that the best thing to be doing in Donny at 3:18AM is posting here  ;)
    Welcome @JasonW - West Mids, so absolutely NO excuse for not dropping by the Guitar Show in Feb and saying hi!
    Welcome @thing - that pub must have a way away, about 10 years away??  But you've found your way home now.

    @thing
    Good for the most part:
    Guitar is even more fun now I know how to play it *cough*
    Work is super interesting because (a) I don't do too much of it;  and (b) what I do is a combination of research at Uni and clinical work with complicated and difficult pain patients.
    And somewhere along the line I became a hypnotist. 
    All good.

    So,,, you were last seen flying toward Australia.
    Back in Lincoln for the time being?

    @Oli. No the Oz thing didn't work out, too old to get in without stumping huge amounts up front to the Oz gov. We go out there for a month or so every year. I don't do much now, work Tue Wed Thur teaching in schools which is enough to fund the lifestyle. I'm 61 now! Where did that go?

  • Hi, I’m Dave, I’ve lurked around for a while, this is my first post.

    username is a combination of the best number, and a name an old friend used to call me. I live in Liverpool, and my musical ambition currently is to get over the hump and find some inspiration again. My best gear is a Framus Panthera  Supreme, really nice guitar, and a Mooer Ocean Machine.
    my number 1 all time song would be...actually, I’m not sure that’s a question I can answer. I guess I’ll go for Inside Job by Pearl Jam.

    Howdy folks, good to be here amongst the fraternity of the string! I've been a long time lurker too and thought I'd properly introduce myself. 

    Q1: My username is a nickname from my college days (with a 1 at the end lol) but it says Ralph on my credit card bills
    Q2 : I'm from Torquay, Devon and still live there. Great place but I wouldn't recommend going into the town centre lol
    Q3 : My only musical ambition is to be able to play from the heart without my fingers getting in the way! Would like to move to Nashville in the future to soak up some of the talent!
    Q4 : The best gear I have is a Roland Blues Cube Artist and a strat style guitar I made myself at the Totnes School of Guitar making.
    Q5 : My current favourite track is 'Pick Peace' by Guthrie Trapp.

    Welcome @sjcarter - there's a big theFB event happening in Huddersfield (no, really, there is) early next year ...
    Welcome @daviey42 ; - a lurker emerges from anonymity!    And a guitar like that deserves an intro thread all for itself.
    Welcome @Ralphonzo ; - and another ex-lurker - great to have you posting with us.

    My Maestro Raffles cedar/mahogany acoustic guitar.
