@alexlac51 @bazkie maybe you are supposed to play it like a silent banjo/ukelele, so as not to annoy the neighbours 😁

@vfrmedia @alexlac51 why would you not want to annoy the neighbors? 😇

@bazkie @alexlac51

or sit and play banjo mournfully like Bé Muller (who used to work for RCD / AT / RDI busting the pirate radio stations but was so good at his job they laid him off) - I saw him on YouTube once and congratulated him in Dutch on his banjo playing and that it was a better thing to be doing, which spooked him to such an extent he left YouTube for a good few months (like many others from AT/RDI he travels to UK for holiday as an "escape", thinking no one knows who they are, let alone understands Dutch 😁 )

latest thing Bé is up to is building string instruments from cigarboxes and other random bits of wood from his shed/workshop in Assen, so maybe he'd be able to make something from that chopping board 😁

@alexlac51 Is that one of those chopping boards that are designed to be put up on the wall in a chain restaurant as a "quirky" display?

it possibly was, but we did not buy it for that, it was bought to cut bread.... the instructions were behind a cardboard cover... heyho...😂

@HollieK72 @alexlac51 maybe it's meant for charcuterie & cheese board.

Remind me of sometging where people could pay to have random geek stuff send to them everymonth and one of the thing was a oven glove like thanos, except it wasn't heat resistant at all. Grabbing hot plate from the oven with it resulted in melted plastic in your hand.
