A local of Hulme Manchester getting carted away in their dressing gown by rather a lot of police. Forensics there now.

I would say he's in the bushes again...
Went to bed yesterday, got a phone call "can you cover a site asap till 6am". Went there, well ok that means no sleep and I work today too.
So it was a big surprise at 1.30 am to see another security officer turning up to take my shift and to let me to go home. Office people have done their best tonight.

I've always wanted to play an instrument so I've had a bash at several of them but this is my favourite...not my favourite song, it just sounded alright when I played it.

Ignorant people might suggest that you had been banished to the bathroom for musical performances, but I realise that actually you chose that room for its superior acoustics!
The 8-string ukulele sounds a lot nicer then 4-stringers.
PS I was just searching for info on ukuleles and found THIS uke forum - somewhere else for uke players to fritter away the hours on t'interweb?
(I found a PaulB on there, but he is American!)

Well spotted, Colin. I really like the acoustics in there and unlike other rooms, the sound from the uke doesn't drown out my voice. The benefit of the 8-stringer is that you don't have to decide if you're going for a high\low G, you can have both. You can do this on the C string as well so effectively it's a six-string mini guitar!Ignorant people might suggest that you had been banished to the bathroom for musical performances, but I realise that actually you chose that room for its superior acoustics!

I will take my guitar into my bathroom next time that I am practising. It is a big room with a tiled floor and walls, so it has a very lively acoustic. (It might actually be too reverberant.)
PS I just took the guitar in there... It sounds fantastic! There is a door through to my bedroom and I strolled back and forth while playing and the contrast in acoustics was incredible. The bedroom acoustic is horribly dead and muffled because of the thick carpet, heavy curtains, and super-king-size duvet on the bed. The bathroom acoustic is sumptuous! There is also reduced traffic noise because it doesn't have a window facing onto the nearby road. If I ever record myself playing the guitar (or - heaven forbid - singing!), I will do it in the bathroom. I won't bother for guitar practice though because it isn't very comfortable sitting in there.
