    Some people love them some people hate them, i wouldnt personally touch them because i dont like active pickups, they always seem to be lacking something to my ears.

    haha good one KB, I haven't got a great deal of work on at the moment so I can prey on the 'what's new page' even more haha
    Yes you will find me at the beer tent hopefully on the customer side of the bar.
    I'm having trouble getting a copy of DB's hate bible mate, whenever a large enough external hard drive comes out. Also the bible is evolving as we speak could have reached 60 TB by now haha

    haha KB I serve beer at the naughty warehouse almost 24/7 so be a good break to be on the customer side.
    To print the DB bible would take about 10 huge trees and yes I am still waiting to get a copy.

    The rumour I heard Woks was you were seen in the naughty room tearing pages out of a DB shaped book and throwing them on the fire shouting if DB hasn't got the book he can't have anything to dislike lol.
