So what did Santa bring?

[David Martin]

A Fiesta Red Futurama P-Bass from my good lady wife...

A Fiesta Red Futurama Bass? The Hagstrom-made model? Wow! A vintage item, one assumes?

Musically speaking, nothing like that arrived here, though I did get a copy of this book:

...which is great reading (especially the first two chapters which detail the history and genealogy of the company).

And a load of vintage TV DVD box sets (inc Charlie Drake in "The Worker" - remember that one?).

No Jim... it's modern and Chinese, I guess... ridiculous low price and a great playing and sounding instrument.

Good old FleaBay!

Here you are, Jim... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350290660339&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2F%3F_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dp4712.m38.l1313%26_nkw%3D350290660339%26_sacat%3DSee-All-Categories%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

Harry, Ron, Bob... take note!

3. guitar pen (yes, it plays a tune...)
4. Doctor Who annual
5. £5000 limited edition red Custom Shop Stratocaster

Was it the tie that you didn't get George?

[George Geddes]

Tam

Come along to Pipeline this year and find out...

George

[rogera]

Please please please let it be the tie !!!!

Although I haven't ever attended the Pipeline convention, on that weekend I have noticed a horrible lurid glow in the evening sky when looking toward the metropolis and I'm absolutely positive that it isn't the aurora borealis.

I think he probably got the tie, Tom - I think it was the Dr. Who Annual that was not under the tree - but, really George, that is no reason to throw all your toys out of the cot!

John.

P.S. Looking forward to hearing the £5000 Fender Custom Strat at the next practise

One of my prezzies still hasn't turned up. Apparently my Quiklok adjustable stool was not delivered because of the disruption resulting from the snow. Honestly! You'd think Santa would be used to snow by now!
