Hello buddy hope all is well, sorry to hear about your uncle mate my thoughts are with you and your family. Been really busy lately with trying to get it finished and fixing cars, kids etc!! Haven't bought any coins for ages as it's been caineing my money ha ha. Will pop a few pics up tomorrow. Hope the show went well!! take care sonni

Yeah prep, come on tell us what happened!! Did you swap them for some old skool vinyls!!!

Hello David welcome, it's very good on here and if you ask you will learn lots, plenty of kind people to give you advise and support where needed!

Lucky you mate, sounds like your getting into it!!!!! Enjoy them?

I have a big field at the back of my house, they can earn there keep for a beer! Bar tops on, resin to do next!

Sounds like a plan that or we could just start fires in my garden whilst singing campfire songs drinking instead??

You certainly don't get the chance to do that everyday! Cool that!

Hacienda?! Never made it to Ibiza but lots of my mates been said it was on another level, glad you enjoyed it, music brings people together?

Ha ha this is great! Love it! I was born in Blackpool in 82 so I grew up in the 90's listing to all those, Mark E.G. Dreamcast, Helter Skelter, Zone, Sequins, Maxims, just wishing I was old enough to get into the Palace night club and Zone! Reach for the lasers Pete, you know you want too??

I'm sure we can get a few round, I was thinking someone a bit hotter than him, more like a Latino lovely lady instead ? Was going to put bar tops on last night but the kids infected me with the lurgey last few days and wasn't going to get a pass to do it if I wasn't at work?

1210's living the dream! Can we swap can I be you?!

They can go in the snug! Dart board on other wall? I really need a mortal Kombat arcade machine but that would be the gothic florin gone plus some more?

You certainly can Pete! Always a tipple welcome here? Can't wait to watch coin weekly on YouTube whilst enjoying a imperial stout, bliss!

Looks a bit naff at the minute but with bar top, lick of paint, furniture, fridges etc should be ok, hopefully!

Good point! Coins it is I think! If money was no object I would do gold sovereigns that would look cool?

Hello prep thank you for your advise, yes as you say you can go into any bank and get some brand new 2p or 1p coins quite easily and it shouldn't cost the world to do. I have a big old vodka bottle full of shrapnel so should help! I also have a mate with a pub if I go down the bottle top route. I'm more swayed to coins tho as its fitting with my interests. I was in the garage until 1.30am laying the glass blocks then woke the wife up clunking round the bedroom! Good job I'm building it,may need to put a bed in there when I'm in the dog house! Nice to speak too a fellow outdoor man like yourself ? Atb iain

I know, you wouldn't go round his house you wouldn't get a blooming beer??

Yes they do look quite good with the coins especially when they do a jazzy pattern, but then being a bar top the beer tops are quite fitting too. I'm stumped!

Hello everyone, I'm currently in the middle of building a bar in my garage. I've got loads of spare wood in which I've built the framework out of, I'm going to build two walls at either ends out of the 80's style coloured glass blocks and have lights behind as a bit of a feature. The front so to speak is basic bunk bed latts tightly fitted together in which I will stain a dark mahogany colour. The bar top is going to be made from new scaffolding boards sanded down, the only thing that I cannot decide is what to do on top of the bar top. I want to either lay shinny 2p coins and dull ones and make a bit of a pattern then clear epoxy resin over the top to get a really polished bar top finish or put different beer bottle tops on, then resin. What do you guys think, what would you go for? Will put pictures up once finished. Cheers Iain

They will take anything round our end, I will try fasten it to the wife??

Ha ha free tea I like it! Springers just don't stop they make me tired watching them, I dog sit my mates when he goes away she will run all day then want to play fetch after!
