Picked up a Union Glashutte Noramis recently and blown away with how nicely finished it is - quite a few of the Certina models are excellent too (PH500M etc) and at a reasonable price point.

The SG is definitely on my to try list as not only do they look ultra cool but they also look a little more comfortable to play compared to a slab bodied Les Paul, I've owned a few Gibson over the...
Hmmm I'm not sure you would be convinced, the 594 is voiced to be very Gibson like right from the low wind vintage pickup, 24.594 scale length, and the slightly thicker body that leans more to a Les...
Ah yes, the neck ... it's a "Wood Library" special order hence the stained flame maple neck rather than the standard mahogany on the McCarty models.
The contrast between the neck and the plain...
The colour is an Aquamarine stain over the top and back of the neck.
The top is AAA flame maple (or "10 Top" as PRS call it) and the neck a AA flame maple, so the markings are actually in the wood...
I know there are a few of you on here that play guitar so I thought I'd put a quick post on here showing my latest purchase - a McCarty 594 Double Cutaway.
This is my first guitar from PRS and I...

My wrist is 7.25 inch but quite "flat".
The photo is a bit of an awkward angle and the perspective of having the camera close up makes the watch look a tad bigger than it really is (it's a 42mm) -...
Looks great Tony - Tina is very happy with hers and of course can now enjoy roof down motoring during the winter months!
Enjoyed a very nice evening in the pub with a few fellow TZ-ers last night (thank you gents - really good to meet up), and a chance to collect a strap that Carlton-Browne had for me.
A while back...
Old photo as it's cloudy here so my watch isn't actually going to be much use today :pig:

The last time I looked at this type of thing the employer signs up and then offers it to it's employees - it's free to the employee (*) but the employer pays a small amount per employee each month as...
IIRC most homes only actually get about 80 amps at the board despite being able to take 100.
But as you've said, charging only takes 32 amps of the board so leaving just enough to run an induction...
She most certainly did, and I know she is still more than pleased with the new roof that was put on her Boxster.
Happy to ask her which company did it and send you the details Tony if you're still...
So what if these four people aren't happy covering for you ... you're planning on leaving anyway so they'll be covering for you once you're gone until your replacement is hired anyway so they might...
For tracker funds I rather like Vanguard LifeStrategy and take the bond / equity mix that best meets your risk profile.
For P2P Lending ... personally I think that will be the next "mis-selling"...
Barclaycard do Amex / Visa at 1% / 0.5% cashback with no annual fee.
I seem to remember once you're taking any form of pension benefit your (up to) 40k allowance drops to 4k (used to be 10k) ... this is to stop people churning their pension money in a drawdown scheme...
Umbrellas tend to charge a fixed fee for each week that you've done work, it's not done on commission as this is an umbrella service and not an agency (hence they don't care how many hours you do...
I'm an IT contractor and have been for 22 years, always worked through a limited co, my take on it ....
If you're drawing your pension you'll be restricted to £4k per year for future contributions...
Same here, but given the VAT charged by my accountant and the odd spot of accommodation and car parking I'll be moving off the flat rate scheme ... I'll be ahead by only a few quid, but better a few...
