I love the amp. The Rumble club Mostly talks about the amps, but also the bumpers. I ignore that part. The great thing about having a 7ender-or in my case 5quier- is it Really makes you appreciate the Bird even more!:D:thumbsup:

My wife is English.

Pub grub is fantastic. Fish and chips, shepherd's pie, bangers and mash... I love English beer from a cask in the basemen, warm and flat and with clouds of flavorful something or another in it. But, I absolutely, positively draw the line at bubble and squeak. You can keep the stuff they boil until it's indistinguishable from everything else that got boiled to mush. If it isn't boiled to death, it's greasy and a little bland. There's a reason that curry is now the most popular dish in England. If you want to call that English cuisine, then OK, but really, it's imported.

My wife has overcome her unfortunate culinary past and has discovered non-mush vegetables, spices that aren't just salt and pepper, and she has developed an ability to eat all kinds of spicy food that would kill a lesser person.

TBH I used to love the ‘Boiled Dinner’ Mum used to make. Boiled Corned Silverside with cabbage, parsnips, carrots etc and a white sauce.
Sometimes chokoes.

Food from around the globe, was brought to America by the people who came to America from around the globe, and decided to hang out. I suppose the only true "American Cuisine" would be that of Native Americans, which apparently lacks mass appeal (I'm not even certain I've ever tried it, myself... and I live here). I must admit... it would be cool to hear of a restaurant in other countries around the globe, that specialized in "American food". I don't think that really exists currently (though I could be wrong about that. I don't get out much). Sadly... I believe McDonalds is the only representation of American "cuisine" in global consciousness.

We have some. They are like Arnold’s from Happy Days :) 50s RnR themed, burgers, hot dogs, sometimes BBQ.

Oh you said cuisine ?
We actually do have a couple. Haven’t heard of them for a while though.

Yes I have one.

As best as I can measure, the max thickness (between the pickups) would be around 63mm, as you say. The measurement for thickness at the binding behind the bridge would be 49 or 50 mm.

I take you to mean you want photos from above to show how the cut out of the body on the treble side above the 16th fret works? Or are you looking for the angle that the neck is set?

Do you also want the photos of the neck taken from the side to show how the heal tapers before joining the body?

You're an angel!!!! Thank you :)

Yes from the side so I can see how the height of the banding changes and the how the body changes at the neck angle.

Thanks you so much again, I just can't find these pictures on the net at all

That is too bad - Really sorry to hear she had to go through all that...

We have Denmark’s biggest orthopedic department at my hospital, and I see those procedures in recovery all the time. It really should have been smooth sailing after the first operation.

Hope she will get better soon. :)

Thanks M, things have been much better since thankfully, cast off and stitches out on Thursday just in time for me to bugger off for two days and leave her on her own!

Perhaps in the 70s but not true at all now ... Americans who live in glass houses should maybe refrain from chucking rocks.

British food is not 'fancy', but you can't beat a good Cullen Skink, Lancashire Hotpot or pork pie. Favourite European cuisines in no particular order -- Scandinavian, Hungarian, British and French.

I have to agree (sorry Kat). Lumping the three mainland nations together British food can be very good, there are some very nice dishes, as Kat said, not fancy compared to other nations but usually wholesome tasty dishes based on seasonally available ingredients. Sausages, Welsh Rarebit, Haggis, Cornish pasty and the Bridie, Christmas pudding, beef wellington, Shepard's pie, Yorkshire pudding ......... What's that drink they make up in Scotland kat? You know, brown and tastes of a peat bog :)
