    What's Everyone Watching on TV

    Just watched the full series of BBC's The Woman in the Wall. As shocking and unforgiveable as the Post Office's behaviour has been towards its Postmasters, it is nothing like as bad as the Catholic Church's historic behaviour towards unmarried mothers - highlighted in this dark and disturbing...

    Has Santa arrived?

    I got a U.T.I., so many painful trips to the little boys room and practically no sleep for the last three nights. I'm tempted to say, Bah Humbug!:wallbash:

    They're only allowed to listen to music whilst working because there's a Claus in their contracts. Try asking a bunch of lawyers if there's a Sanity Claus in their contracts and see how many of them look at you like you're crackers. Cos there ain't no Sanity Claus (With a nod to Groucho Marx...

    One for mactech - see how many you remember. No cheating. https://www.wiganworld.co.uk/stuff/dialect2.php And a blast from the past.... Two Wiganers walking down Wallgate; just past the railway station, there's a sign outside a pub. " A pie, a pint and a woman, £1,25" one Wiganer says to...

    Sunroof Recall

    Received my third letter last week regarding this issue. I'm amazed (or am I?) that Mercedes would still be trying to entice me back to a dealership yet again. After the farago of the first visit, I'm sticking with my trusted indie.

    Shopping on AliExpress

    AliExpress is notorious for blatantly selling fake/counterfeit products. No-one I know in the music industry would dream of buying, for example, a Shure, Sennheiser or even a Neumann microphone from them. I don't know how they are allowed to get away with it.

    What's everyone listening to ?

    Loved the Jimmy Smith recording. Can't beat the sound of a Hammond, played by someone who knows which drawbars do what...... Here's possibly the best example I know of a brief, but perfectly formed Hammond solo by the late great Billy Preston, book-ended by fab vocals & keyboards by Norah Jones...

    I was cleaning out the attic the other week and I came across an old oil painting and an old violin - covered in dust. I took 'em to have 'em valued and the bloke said "what you've got there, is a Rembrandt and a Stadivarius. Unfortunately............,Stradivarius was a rotten painter, and...

    Old school LIVE singing in a spectacular setting. Fabulous voice, an incredible interpretation of a great song and supreme microphone technique, using my favourite hand-held vocal microphone, the AKG 535EB.

    Just re-watched The Concert for George DVD. A wonderful tribute to a unique man. The finale has to be one of the most moving endings to any concert, ever.

    True story, no really!! My 77 year old chum has difficulty hearing. It's not serious , but he does have to have things repeated to him on an increasing number of occasions. I've prodded him a few times to get his hearing checked and last week he had an appointment for a free test. The...

    Air Refreshener. 🙂

    I'm really starting to get worried now...... Should I add Lenor or Comfort to my wash, and if so which fragrace? Will it clash with the Febreze I use in the house to keep it smelling fresh? Which is more effective/economic, the plug-in, the candle or the spray? It's a real headache...
