One of these equals two of those!

Have you got a couple of those to spare Brian? Seeing we've now set the rules, I'd like to get in on the act too!

No problem Ron,

I'll be bringing several of my own somewhat "special" picks. I have been known to share them with my friends. I purchased roughly 1000 of them for the "intended" use. If you ever wondered why I have so many guitars now you know why.

I do that with Herco Gold Nylon 0.5mm flatpicks. I buy them like I used to buy golf tees and give them all away....

I have been known to share them with my friends.

Where are mine, then????? You didn't donate any to the cause last September!!

...... or have I been dumped?

Cruelly and without remorse, Aitch!!

So, how ya fixed for Herco Golds?

I have a whole gross saved for Trotty already, y'know...

I've never actually used them, Elys. I use the nylon standards because they come in .38 and .46 and the raised lettering gives me more grip on the pick.

Aitch,

Nope you have not been dumped. You are in the game.

The previously unwritten part of my pick under the strings rule:

Do not give picks to friends if there is even a remote chance that I might be able to slide one under the strings of one of their finest guitars. You placing one of mine there before I get a chance, takes precedence and therefore negates any opportunity for me. But why am I telling the rules of acquisition? You are a past master at that game now. Right? Watch out Ron he is a very quick study.

By now I am sure that we have confused the heck out of everyone reading our little repartee. It's an ICBM Band inside joke.

I'll fix you, Mr. Medway! I'll put my picks all through your luggage and all over your wife!!

Mental note take no guitars to Howard's but plenty of picks!

That little pocket inside the right front pocket of a pair of blue jeans?
I call that my Pickpocket.

That's what it's for, right?

Hey Aitch -- I have just been catching up on my Forum reading and sorry to chime in so late after your posting, but I really enjoyed the Weekend Warriors performance on You Tube. Very well done on White Room and you guys ought to continue your efforts. Your Ric looks real good !
Regards - Rich F.

Thanks, Rich. We're a bit wobbly at the moment as far as continuing with our present lineup is concerned, but we're still basically having fun and that's the main point of the exercise!
