Thank you all for your time, patience, encouragement and great guitar building advice given to me over the past twelve months.

Damn!!! did I miss out on the group buy that was to Divide that stash Craig. If so has anyone over-ordered or is there anyway I can get in retrospectively, I'll take what ever is on offer.

Merry Christmas Makers of Music Makers.

It's wood Jim , but not as we know it ,, not as we know it.

If we can free up this world reserve of tonewood, I'm sure there will be more than enough to satisfy the world market for a long time to come . Tonewood prices should drop due to lack of scarcity . World wars will be laid to rest I'm sure. Oil prices will dive to an all time low and our exchange rate will rise to an all time high . Not bad for a five day gig Huh ?

Martin's security system consists of a bucket of water hovering over the door , and a bunch of tin cans tied to a string . Still considered high tech in N.Z. but should be easily beat

We have 'Silver Tongue Kim' to handle Martin's Missus, and Bob is to dress in his sheep suit to distract the Rottweiller . Bob's always been pretty quick in his suit so should fair well !. ( just have to watch out for any Kiwi's in the area ). He's adorable in the 'suit'.,,,,, it could get pretty ugly ...... hmmmm

Merry Christmas Martin, and the rest of you lot, and have a safe trip home and back! (no one is travelling much around here, Vancouver got hit with over a foot of snow so the whole place is pretty much shut down, they all still have their summer tires on and can't get out of their driveways, Thank GOD!)

Here's hoping that Bob and the Kiwi's come to an understanding...I like Bob the way he is (was?)!

Merry Christams and Happy New Year!!!

Merry Xmas everyone.

Bob dressing as a sheep eh? I just saw that idea in one of NZs less than successful cultural exports, the movie 'Black Sheep'. Its about man-eating sheep? I believe to make it work properly you must get into character and also think like a sheep.
