  1. In bed, lights off watching Criminal Minds. Finish episode, turn off TV. Heard my moped cover rustling, wasn't the windy kind of rustling, and I heard footsteps on the stones on the drive way (my bedroom is at the front of the house). Got out of bed and peeped between my curtains and I can see the f**kers head but he hasn't noticed me. Put some trousers on (was in boxers, no time to put my Janoski Nikes on) and grab a hammer and surprised him swinging my front door open. Chased him down the road barefoot, he tries to do a 180, doesn't work. Old f**k couldn't outrun me so I swung my hammer at him a few times. He puts his hands up starts to apologise and I threaten him some more with my hammer.

    Eventually he wants to go, I didn't have my phone on me to call cops so I threatened him that if I see him around here again the hammer is going through his head. The cheeky f**k asked if he could go back to get his bicycle on the drive way. Did he f**k.

    Went back to check my bike, the knob took off two foot panels. Maybe he was trying to get the battery or something? There's literally nothing under there except wires and the frame. If I knew I would have emptied his backpack.

    Called cops, turns up 20mins later. Takes statement. Says if they can see someone matching my description of him on the high street CCTVs round the corner they'll get back to me. Unlikely they'll see him though. They take his bicycle back to the station, which is literally 2 mins round the corner. I remember his face very well though, if I see him I'll be sure to get money off him to replace the panels!

    Now I can go back to sleep, and my feet are f**king sore.

  2. I have done, refund request has been sent. Luckily paid as a purchase through PayPal if anything goes wrong but it shouldn't

    I've got a pair of Echo urbans in silver for £40 if you're interested?

  3. Here's a problem for you guys. I've been getting random crashes playing any sort of videos in any player, WMP, VLC, iTunes, Quicktime, MPC-HC. Don't know what the exact cause is so I reinstalled W7. After that videos played for hours without any crashes. However it has started again. Last things I installed was GTA V and Project Cars. I don't know if it's them that's causing the crashes but I also don't want to uninstall them to see as they total to a 75GB download, Fairly sure it's not hardware related. Plays games fine, it's just video files.

  4. I've thought about that before as well. But instead I just sold and still am selling off things I no longer need/use. I threw away a lot of stuff too that wouldn't sell. I still own a lot of things but mostly are part of my hobbies which I want to keep.

  5. Your fenders... offend me haha. I only like tele shapes, only Fender I'd actually like is Jim Root's (slipknot) signature tele.

    But yes, I had to move the bridge back 6mm and I had to enlarge the string holes on the bridge plate to slots so they match up with the body string holes I already drilled. The bridge plate is a f**king mess, I did it with a drill and files. I'll replace it one day and machine out some proper slots. But luckily the saddles cover everything up so you can see shit haha.

  6. When a well known online guitar tool shop online calculator gives you the wrong measurements for bridge placement and you've pretty much assembled the guitar to find that it doesn't intonate.

    FML. Don't know if I can salvage the the black guitar I posted a few posts back. Possibly a write off :ermm:

  7. Anyone ever built a case before?

    Nope. Seems it's one of those things that by the time you've spent the hours and money into it you might as well buy one, or second hand one. Unless you can get all the right materials for dirt cheap. 3 of my guitars are in a softshell case I got from Thomann for £25 and the 4th guitar in a Ibanez M100C hardshell case I got given by a good friend. But then again I don't travel with mine, last time they left my room was moving houses.

  8. The Tarts managed to get my wheelbuilds in a day earlier than expected which means I get them tomorrow instead of Wednesday.

    Can't do anything with them yet but still, whoop whoop!!!

    Why you no build your own wheels?
