id love to get some gear....but i gotta pay £60 phone bill firstly...which aint gonna leave me with much for gear.

having said that, theres a lovely flamed (geddit?) black leather guitar strap ive had my eye on for a while - and thats £35...so that'll about cover it!

2 Years - That's dedication!! With a 50% success rate. I wouldn't complain. I've been entering contests for the last 20 years and haven't won squat.

That worked Jamie, but I had to do it on the 10 key pad. It wouldnt work from my regular numbers above the alpha. Learn something new every day.

Ok dB, now I feel like a turd. I should have guessed you knew If you could do the symbol for it.
