Ah yes, the golden days at JGW. Male and female staff tearooms and Mr Hedley on the prowl.
Wasting your time in music shops now Lance, they are staffed mainly by youngsters that know nowt. I buy all my stuff online, it is normally here the next day and saves me the job of travelling with the druggie pastie-munchers on public transport or paying ridiculous parking fees If you can find a space).
