it might have started as military time but I grew up just knowing it as the 24hr clock. I have all my digital clocks and watches set to the 24 hour clock or military time. But I would not say it is 21 hundred hours even though the clock shows that. I will still say nine o'clock.
It would be very useful for someone to use this all the time if they get completely blootered out thir skull on bevy for a few days. When they finally come around and they have it on the 24hr then they will know it is 9pm or 9am instantly

Hi Russ,

I am sure I posted this last night but i cannot see it here, maybe I forgot to hit submit then closed my windows ?

Anyway, good song. I have never heard it before but i like it now and i tihnk i will go look up the original and might have a go at it myself but without the finger picking.

So what i typed last night....9th fret??????? 9th flippin fret?,

Would it not work for your vocals on the 4th fret too? This lyle person must have made a mistake on the 9th or done it for a laugh.

Zara,
I think Per ( the webmaster) knows the importance of this tool.

I am sure if he didnt have to take it off he wouldnt have.

I tihnk we all use this a lot and yer right it is an important tool in chordie, I use it constantly, or I did.

Lets hope it returns soon. We will have to wait and see.

Doug,
Thanks Fantastic reply.
I never really thought about this pound steling thing being linked with silver and dollars linked to gold. This makes a lot of sense now, or more than it did before. But gold is worth more than silver so why do you get more $$$'s for the £ ?

lol.

the roundabouts here are slowly getting traffic lights at them to control the traffic more. Sometimes I think this is good but defeats the purpose of them in the first place.
We are getting more and more mini roundabouts that really are a waste of time in my view as folk just drive straight over them and do not treat them as a roundabout.

As for the "colonies" rejecting anything that was from the UK, I dont blame them , I am still rejecting Uk things and I am in the UK

Ger,
I would think it sounds like a few things maybe.

You say you get a ringing sound. This might be nutt fault, ( the part where the strings are guided from the tuning keys to the fret board)

Also if you can only barr when a capo is on then I would think your action is too high. When you put a capo on it reduces the action of the strings so it would make it easier to barr.

I would suggest you get yerslef down to a music shop with no intention of buying a guitar. Ask to have a shot of some really good guitars and see how you get on with them.
This is not to say yours is not a good guitar. It might just need a little help from an experienced person.
If you find you can play other guitar ok and you do not want to change your guitar you can ask in a shop for advice. They would probably ask you to bring it in so they can have a look and let you know if it is worth doing anything or/and how much it would cost.

I tihnk they would be great at country.
I always thought Joey was a bit of a cowboy

In the thread in question, I submitted a post roughly about number 12 in it saying it was a waste of time.
It was allowed to carry on for reasons that I just cannot understand other than it was harmless. Harmless it was but a waste of time too. If I were a moderator of this section I would have closed it down before it got to reply number 20.
I complained about it a few times along with a few others but it kept going.
So ye know that saying " if ye cant beat them, join them"? , yep thats what I done.
I joined in and tried to talk as much piffle as I could and I actually got replies and nearly turned into a good discussion ( yeah right)

I did start changing my mind slowly about the thread. I started seeing it as a good place for folk to type nonsense in and hopefully it would stay out other threads. I have no idea if this was achieved. Achieved? , hmmm wrong word as no one set out for this to happen, so whatever the word is thats it.

Sometimes it looked OK, as a few posts were were getting a few replies, but it was the constant " I must post more and more replies to get my number of posts up" sort of posts. No one gets a medal for having more posts. I have a lot of posts but only because I am here a lot and reply a lot and I was moderating a lot. I wouldnt type a post at 5:03 saying hey hey hey, then another at 5:06 saying wel well well, etc, etc. waste of time anyone reading that dribble.
Geezo I have so much to say.
I am away to read more posts now

post of the week!!

all1song,
I said it in the thread " is chordie safe" (a few down from this thread) and I will say it here.
Norton is mince. Norton is wrong, Norton will decide itself whats good and bad, not all the sites it says are bad are actually bad.
I bet if chordie paid a sum to norton, the powers at norton would say " chordie is so safe, no need to worry".

My I.T guys at work have recommended to anyone that asks them about norton to disable it and use AVG along with a firewall.
I have no problems at all and  Idont use Norton.
