man of hidden talents, there was me thinking he was nothing more than a grumpy face.

I have to point out that I didn't draw those figures. I spent ages searching online for an image in an H shape that would fit the pedal and then I found some German advert that looked cool, so I changed the words and made it monochrome. She was originally saying something like Der herbst ist? I don't remember his reply. I can't find the original image now and I've deleted it off my computer.

OK, boss it is. Cheers bud. Get me an address and I'll get it out to you with Gavin's pedal on Monday.

It says that it "may not work on Mac", but it obviously does, 'cause this is what I used.

hahah that Camel Decal is so WTF. I've called it Saltstorm in my design notes and stuff, sounds like an appropriate name to me but I'm fine with whatever you want.

Casewise are you ok with Landscape with jacks/DC on the top?

Made me chuckle a lot, plus my granddad always called me 'andsome, so it's a Devon gag within a Devon gag, all wrapped up in a happy memory.

Also trying to resist ordering a green metalflake green muff.
