Random Irritations

went to play guitar last night at a practice session for a mates band, they are doing some gigs in a few weeks and wanted an extra guitar. Not played for a while so turned up with all my gear and one Guitar, My Chet Atkins 6122 Country Gent. Plugged in tuned up and, nothing!!!
Switch leads, still nothing, borrowed another lead, still nothing, checked all the patch leads on the effects. In the end tried 6 different leads..., then spotted the kill switch was on, so the guitar switched of to all intense and purpose. wasted 40 mins of there rehearsal time buggering around for no reason

What a numpty:(

I bet stronger words than numpty were used :)

Did you get the gig? :LOL:
 
When your phone suddenly just decides to throw in the towel. Hate having to get a new phone.
 
Colin Murray. Fighting Talk has been one of my favourite radio programs for a very long time but he is damaging it. Far too fond of his own opinion, has too high an opinion of himself.

Whilst in Fighting Talk mode, don't ever let Tanni Grey Thompson, Gail Emms or Kelly Smith back on the show. Dull, nothing interesting to say, manage to bring every answer back to their own sporting career. More Bunce, Rawlings and Brady 😁

Agree that Gail Emms has ruined several episodes.
I think Murray was going that way before he left last time. Will listen out when I catch up on a few.
Have some Crouchy ones to catch up on also.
 
The Crouch ones are good, I'm enjoying the golf ones as well. I'm actually listening to the Eddie Pepperell one just now.

Gail Emms is dreadful, always manages to bring everything back to badminton. No one cares Gail, no one. Tani Grey Thompson did the same last week and Kelly Smith, apparently she played football for Arsenal, did the same this week. Dull, so dull. I loved Christian O'Connell as the presenter, sorely missed.
 
Watching Sergio Garcia’s OCD before he pulls the trigger makes my slightly annoyed.

If you go on the BBC sport app or section in website, Go to the Golf section and scroll down to the "CUT"

The Eddie one will be the newest one in the list makes for good listening as does the Molinari one

It is part of the BBC golf ones called The Cut. If you go onto the BBC iradio app or page they have a whole series of podcasts and this is the latest one. They have Iain Carter and Andrew Cotter chatting and have different guests.

Eddie was an interesting listen, as always. He may test the patience of the Augusta committee in terms of receiving his invite. His lack of excitement regarding the masters may offend them.

Well done Wolfie, you beat me to it.
