More like wing staff not trying to prove their minuscule worth by picking up on trivialities.

Had an adv trg app returned as I and I quote ā€œhad not put GR before every 6 figure grid refā€ā€¦, to signify those 6 digits in an adv trg app were in fact a grid refā€¦

Give me strength.

Play them at their own game. Go to 8 figures, make them check.

And latitude and longitude. They need to make sure it matches

Why stop there? Three word refs as well.

Iā€™d argue that GR wouldnā€™t workā€¦

G is a 500km grid square somewhere off North West Scotland. R is a 100km square somewhere therein.
500kmsq

Better just to use one of these to avoid that unnecessary confusion!

Huh, I never knew it skipped I.

I guess if you need 25, you may as well skip I or O as they are the most likely to be mistaken for numbers! Same reason as service numbers donā€™t use I or O for any pre/suffix!

That is only a guess thoughā€¦

My parents are moving out of my childhood home into a bungalow so down sizing and making me happy today is that my dad dropping off the remaining seven guitars Iā€™d left thereā€¦ Apparently I hadnā€™t told my GF about them and she was already complaining the 4 I had already was enough.

No such thing as too many guitars

My point exactly

Mrs Crazy has no clue about the 7 piece pearl export or the Premier XPK in mums loft :joy: she thinks the jazz kit in the garage and the small Roland electronic one at home are it. Oh the day when the kids move out and I have my entertainment room will be fun, maybe not so much for the neighbours :joy:

All this talk is making me very jealousā€¦.

In a previous life I used to DJ and all the kit is relegated to the garage or loft.

I did float the idea of a killer surround system, even tried to sell it as an upgrade for watching movies.

He saw straight through that - no decks or speakers allowed in the house.

I did stir the pot by telling her if I had to choose between my dave gilmour signature or her, the guitar would win.

Drum kit is on the horizon too!

I gave away a few of my lights from my mobile days to friends who built a lockdown bar between their gardens. Still got a few more there maybe donate them to to squadron for the next staff social :joy:

The only time recently Iā€™ve blown the dust off the trussing and stuck new bulbs in the lights was for the squadron Christmas dining in night :joy::man_shrugging: Overkillā€¦ yes. Funā€¦ YES.
