For Sale

One number VW Camper -slightly used. this has one careful owner and one very careless one. Used in the early days of The Who, it was owned by Mr Pete Townshend but driven by Roger Daltrey because Mr Townshend was always pissed.

Lovingly restored by Rachel Fuller to near its original splendour. (as you can see) You can buy it NOW for £50 or willing to trade for a completed Premier League All-Stars 2007 sticker book.

Buyer must collect from Richmond-on-Thames.

Guernsey update, workload, and the fucking customs and excise bastards.

Went over to Guernsey this week for a last minute check. Was expecting to see it more-or-less finished but there is still loads to do and it's supposed to be open next Thursday. My ass is on the line and it's twitching like a heroin-addict's arm muscle.

We only have the highest government officer on the Island and his wife and about 50 other people going to the opening so not much at stake.

Apart from that, two other jobs have finished on time and are looking mighty fine. Only another 20-odd to go.

I went away hoping that my new lover would be here when i got back. A new Gibson J-200 acoustic. Blond it is. (although i prefer brunettes) How foolish of me to think that all would be well. Apparently, it took 5 days to ship from the U.S., which is OK by me -quite good actually - but it's been sitting in customs and excise ever since (3 days!)

I know you have to quarantine animals and that you have to check packages for drugs and stuff but fuck me, how long does it take to assess a 12-year-old guitar? And -this is the best- I may have to pay import tax on it. A second hand, one-off transaction is subject to our government getting some more money off me to spend on their second homes in London. It's perverse.
