If you would like to hear some more nice Terry memories, or want to know more about McGlincy guitars, I'll post some more. Let me know!

If YOU have any pleasant TC anecdotes, please do share them with us, all.

Terry was a guy with an outstanding, wry sense of humour, best greeted with phrases uttered by the likes of the "French Taunter" (Go and boil your bottom, You son of a silly person! or: Your Mother Was A Hamster and your Father Smelt....of Elderberries! or" I blow my nose at you!, etc.) You were guaranteed to always be insulted back, in kind. Watch Monty Python and The Holy Grail...look for the two scenes with the French Taunter (John Cleese) trying to indimidate the Knights. You may just understand a bit about the late, great TC, if you do.

This greeting methodology was, far-and-away, the best way to exchange salutations with Mr. Clements.

The simple "hello" simply didn't cut it.
