Impressive from the videos I looked at! The OD9 sounds crunchier than the TS9!cweg wrote:Try the Maxon OD-9. Had mine for about ten years, don't think I've turned it off yet.GoingPostal86 wrote:ibanez tubescreamer

Agree with chelseablue. It might be a big deal to some people that are incapable of saving money for themselves.
But this is not a bonus or windfall. It is just a little bit more of the money that we should have been getting since April 2013.
It would have been nice to have been paid when the share were floated - now that would have made the money a nice 'multiplier'...

No doubt it will be reported in the right wing press along with our salary. 
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

I suppose the pay rise is business and employment news in a climate where some workers have had the pay frozen for a number of years...
Yes, it will be spun one way or another and the CWU will also be involved

No doubt along the lines of.
"posties get £2000 bonus and 9.6 % pay rise" etc etc .

And that all you will hear from the customers for the next 2 weeks. And the other blue collar workers that we usually come across - bin men and builders spring to mind.
When we got the shares and I was feeling miserable and soaking wet and tired... You hear these folks say, cheer up mate, you are now in the money - all those shares...
