It's Friday afternoon. You're off to the pub really, aren't you? Yeah right ... I wish...just finished for the week. It was a mad one and now to play the guitar over the weekend 👏Ἷ...

Completely get your point @jonhodgson. it's the conflict of the builder in me vs the player in me. For me, those are two different - but obviously closely related - interests. I don't expect to be...

Where is @steveadams, and part 7 of the show? Abducted by aliens? Busily posting part 12 in a parallel universe? Down the pub? (ok, that last one was just silly!)

@tv101 Yes risk assessments are very familiar territory for me. At work we had workshops with vehicle maintenance, wood machining/assembly and metal work/welding. I did all the risk and related assess...

Don’t forget the COSHH, Manual Handling and Power Tool Vibration Assessments (calculator for the last one is at www.hse.gov.uk). ps don’t use a dust extractor, it will need a fire risk assessment. I ...

@tv101, I cook pretty well, and when it comes to driving so long as I actually get to the destination the most important aspect has been achieved equally well. it's the conflict of the builder in me v...

I’m glad that other people have admitted they don’t like fret dressing, I hate it with a passion. In principle, I think I need to work on fret dressing as a skill for completeness and to save money. ...

For anyone who's not seen an email - Carol was unwell last night, so decided best to have an early night, and *not* to run Bliss to avoid passing on the bug to any of us. She's feeling better today. ...

I'll second that @deej. 🤘🏻

I’m glad that other people have admitted they don’t like fret dressing, I hate it with a passion. Particularly when re fretting and dressing near the body, trying not to mark the finish. I looked at t...

@cheesewhisk One tip I learned for handling small parts like dots, when doing jewellery making classes, is to use blue tack or similar for holding. My method now is small stick or dowel, blue tack, do...

@deej Hope you enjoy playing it. Your knife skills are noted as very impressive, looks like you’ve carved the Sunday joint a few times.

Ok ok the wait is over.. I don’t sound very excited as I was a little overwhelmed!!! Im over the moon 😍 Wahey! @deej. Enjoy. 🎸😁 🎸🎶🙂🙏
