He's not quite a miss-out as he's on private property, so is not subject to the whims of a local authority.

Here is a picture of him unlitted, we haven't been able to stop when it's dark though.

No recent ones, as we didn't have time to stop this trip (and also the weather was awful, not seen rain like it for years, had to pull over twice  :o)

We do have one or two in the photo archives somewhere though, leave it with us.

It's always nice to spot a missout. Any pictures?

On our way home from a trip south we passed the location where the Lonely SOX lamp lives, it was too light for him to be litted though.  :(
However the fixture is still there, and we'll make contact with the property owners to ask if they need a new lamp for him. :lps:

My mandolin has suffered some damage, so I took it into Kenny's, which is our local music instrument shop, to see about getting it repaired, but  the damage is such that it won't be cost effective to get the work done, so I've splurged on a new one.

It's a Barnes and Mullins BM600 Wimborne, that's acoustic only, which is ideal as I don't really need to plug it in.  8)

The instrument is a wonderful quality and it sounds brilliant.!
