Hehehe, Cool ain't the word! I wouldn't want to embarrass him publicly (or would I?) but lets just say he's been more than generous to the Bouy too...  Hooray for Bapsiduardo! Now lets go shred some George Formby!!!

I can't wait to hear it. How 'bout this for a song?... a new take on a George Formby number. Now I go smashin' windows to earn an honest bob
For a nosy parker it's an interestin' job
Now it's a job that just suits me
A window smasher you would be
If you can see what I can see
When I'm smashin' windows

A Flying-V Ukulele Does it get any cooler than that Have you seen that teeange kid around Worcester who plays a pink one? (Flying V ukele that is). Does old punk songs on it, IIRC his cover of the Damned's Smash it Up was particularly good.

I'm afraid to say that I haven't Eric - I can't fault his choice of material though.

From what Brit Early Music History (well not like 1245 AD or anything that early) Pre beatles , the UKE figured significantly in Skiffle music  SKITTLE MUSIC ON THE OTHER HAND WAS QUITE A DIFFERENT STORY

I see you found a seven month old pic of the CHB there MM We haven't changed much... Our smart, suave and debonair bassist - signalling with his right hand how many keys he can play in (Am - if in any doubt, it's always A minor). Next across is our denizen of the facial hair Grant - he's good because he can rip out a face-melting lead break without looking at the fretboard. On the far right is the baldy kookstermonster Alex, improvising on a guitar-shaped synthemasizer. And front right, the neglected beautifully kempt JonBouy, obviously rattling out a pristine beat in 13:9 time with 64.967316753 tempo changes. And finally we have ............... oh bollocks

What a great gift Steve. I wonder, how many letters do they come in? Was the previous model the Flying U ?

I'm no DIY expert but I think that would leave a lump when you papered over it.
