Busy month after comming back from holiday, catching up and getting things sorted. Haven't taken many photos this month of guitars. Gibson sg fitting pickups and setup, a fender musicmaster bass fitting a replacement bridge, couple of pic's of a old 70's Manson in for a full refret and service.
Been also busy rehearsing with guys from my old band and a couple of new members. It's take a couple of years with health and wellbeing issues with our drummer Dave, Chrissie and Kerry our vocalists. Last time I played live was 18 years ago! So was a baptism of fire sunday just gone supporting Black Dog Music charity at the Brickmakers Norwich.

Way to Hot! Supposed to have missed the heat wave here, but no in the 37's🥵. Tintagel Castle and village today. Stunning views and the inspiration for King Arthor legend/ story/ myth. Heading to Glastonbury, rode halfway to our air B&B for the night, was like riding through a oven! Thats the hottest I've ever ridden in, 38 degrees felt like 42 on the melting tarmac. From our air B&B through the middle of the Dartmoor National park, stopped off the the Two Bridges Hotel for breakfast, then on towards Glastonbury. Beautiful roads lots off sheep, cattle and ponies wondering over the roads! Found our Inn for two nights. As the Temperature Droped to 26 degrees we ended up walking the hill to The Tor. Lots of people charnting, playing drums and meditating as the sun set. Bit like Stonehenge!

Having a good few days away in Cornwall, Dawn to Dusk ride was great! 468 mile in 12.5 hours starting at 3.15am on Saturday morning. From Lands End to Sennen Cove for two nights and a day relaxing on the beach and a swim. Geevor Tin Mine Museum monday, caught up in a rain storm, bit soaked! Ride down to Charlestown Harbour and tiny beach. Today at the Eden Project....not the best with a +30 degrees heat wave. Nice relaxing but very sweaty day. Tried to cool down doing the Zip Wire over the domes of Eden project. Staying tonight at the Jamacan Inn......
