Oh, good. I speak fluent Numpty, and Gibberish too. At home we used to speak a mix of Smilish and Huggish.

Hi all!
Been using the bass section here for a few months now, been a Ric (bass) owner since 2003.
I'm in Kent, close to the East Sussex border.
Thought I'd stick this on here to give the UK section a post. Things seem quite quiet around here!

Do I count?
I don't live in the UK and haven't for over ten years but I was born (South Yorkshire) and raised (South Yorkshire/East Midlands) there.
After a ten year sente... er, I mean,
stay in Germany, I'm now in the sunny Canary Isles. But I do still photograph my Rickenbackers in true 60s mod/pop-art stylee on a big Union Flag ...
Go on! Pleeeease let me be in your gang!

Hi Richard, you're in the club on two points
1, Born in Yorkshire (it can't get any better than that).
and
2, For calling the Union flag by its correct name and not calling it the Union Jack!

Hi, I'm from the Black Isle (neither black nor an island!) in Northern Scotland.
I currently have one Rickenbacker: a recently acquired slightly disreputable '75 480, which I'm trying to work out what to do with. First thing is to find a decent case that actually fits it; anyone here have any recommendations?
Pleased to see some fellow Scots on the forum!

Hey guys, although my family are Scottish i'm Lincolnshire born and bread. I spend most of my free time on here, but seem to be more of a lurker than a poster. I just love reading what everyone has to say more than saying much.
oh here's my baby too
