Birthday tune on Gibson L5....

[ecca]

Thank you Malcolm, that's pretty normal 'encouragement' from the wife and wasn't prompted.

Saying that the strap knob ( Thanks David ! Genuine Gibson ) will cost me £ 11 to have gold plated.... how much did the rest of the metalwork cost ?

For you Yorkshire lads (and I'm one of 'em too seein' as how my old man was born in Halifax) something to brighten up your days.

Yorkshireman: "Ayup, lad, I need to talk to thee about me cat."
Vet: "Is it a tom?
Yorkshireman: "Nay, I've browt it with me."

A Yorkshireman's dog dies and as it was a favourite pet he decides to have a gold statue made by a jeweller to remember the dog by.
Yorkshireman: "Can tha mek us a gold statue of yon dog?"
Jeweller: "Do you want it 18 carat?"
Yorkshireman: "No I want it chewin' a bone, yer daft bugger!"

A Yorkshireman's wife dies and the widower decides that her headstone should have the words "she were thine" engraved on it.
He calls the stone mason, who assures him that the headstone will be ready a few days after the funeral.

True to his word the stone mason calls the widower to say that the headstone is ready and would he like to come and have a look.
When the widower gets there he takes one look at the stone to see that it's been engraved "she were thin".

He explodes - "Bloody 'ell man, you've left the fooking "e" out, you've left the fooking "e" out!"
The stone mason apologises and assures the poor widower that it will be rectified the following morning.

Next day comes and the widower returns to the stone mason - "There you go sir, I've put the "e" on the stone for you".
The widower looks at the stone and then reads out aloud - "E, she were thin".
