    stickyfiddle, are you sure it had grown ?
    There's definitely something different about this guitar but I can't quite put my finger(s) on it



    - tried it again whilst playing with my new trainset . .

    Cheers Stu - I called out the emergency services to get her fixed



    - Luckily the Ambulance Service these days seemd to be clued up on guitars .




    Then mrerikryman sent the Jookymobile breakdown unit just in case . .

    quick update: - Having got her all sorted back to normal size and being somewhat short of funds myself at the moment, I decided to make an exact to scale copy of the Tickled Pink One and stick an ad on Gumtree with a Nigerian contact tel no. in case there were any enquiries as to where to send the brown envelope with the cash - took a photo as well to ensure lots of interest.











    The 1st response - to say the least, was slightly disappointing






    - on reflection, should probably just have gone with the original " you want a Rolls with it" ad, but both me and Ronnie (c/o the Scrubs) weren't sure if this would be a goer or not, even amongst Oasis fans.

    Cheers Jules, I'd also like to say the build quality on the Tickled Pink One is 1st class - we got a puncture on the way home and didn't even need to get the jack out of the boot.



    - didn't even bend the bottom E tuner.


    Just over one week to go and this thread has had over 14,000 visits since it started.
    - I'm not sure if that means over 14,000 different people have viewed this thread or whether 1 person has viewed it 13,999 times and told a friend, but you can check the total raised so far and make a donation however large or small directly here - http://www.justgiving.com/TheTickledPinkOne
    - even a one pound donation from enough folk could make a difference

    You can also click here to see erictheweary's excellent video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=cGMLqDIymi4

    Cheers and may good health go with you and yours.

    Superb. What ^ he says. I have to confess - I probably account for about 1,000 of the views...

    TPO now handed over today to Liam, aka "failed_astronaut"

    Liam has assured me that all is in hand regarding sending the Tickled Pink One safely back down south tomorrow

    As we're still not getting Jooky-based posts on here (stoopid forum) I'm sure he won't mind me posting this link up:

    Well done everyone!!!

    Shame it never made it as far as sunny old Liverpool, I would have liked a tickle of TPO. But as long as our meagre contributions* add up to something helpful and publicity / awareness was raised then job done

    * meagre was all I could afford at the time.
