    Happy Birthday Cleek. I am only 6 months behind you (18/03/71). Do you have any birthday plans? Few beers tonight?

    You went to the dentist on your birthday? Are you some form of Sadist? :)

    pleasure – a wedding reception. should be fun… except for the plane part. it’ll be exciting to see what we’re not allowed to carry-on this month.

    thanks.

    i’ve been thinking about it, dabbling, got a few song sketches on tape (actually in .MPG from my digicam). and, happily, my lovely wife bought me a real, live BigMuff for my birffday! rock. can’t wait to try it out.

    know of any good, inexpensive, digital recorders ? my old hand-held cassette recorder i used to use to capture song ideas is beat.

    Happy, happy Cleek.

    Neds Atomic Dustbin, I think I saw them in 1991 too. The double bass attack.

    Have a great day.
