  1. If enough people believe in something it makes it true for all practical purposes, for good or ill. Captain Pugwash was brilliant though. Theres something in the back of my mind now I think about the programme again that makes me think Jon Pertwee must have done at least some of the voices.
  2. Many months ago I saw Ludovico Einaudi in Edinburgh. Now my sisters just bought me tickets to see Jean-Michel Jarre in Glasgow for my birthday. I really don't see enough live music, but St. Andrews is a it off the beat for tours and I often cba travelling.
  3. I really enjoyed the Yamaha HP50-A and PMB-100 for the short time I had both. I'd very much consider another HP50-A to replace my fake PX100, lots of bass on those, not a typical ortho sound.
  4. Obviously something tippitty topp seecrit.

    I have to say, the kid in me prefers Pocoyo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCuKm2PZAnE&rel=1

    Doesn't that ruin the point of a not-so-nice girl?

    I've found a nice girl. Sadly she isn't mine. Sob.

  12. Any better now?
  13. I posted a thread on this same topic ages ago on head-fi with great enthusiasm. As I recall, I was about three-quarters of a botte of gin down when I made the switch. Couldn't have sobriety influencing my judgement.
  14. Hippitty Burpdai!

    Mozart vs Beethoven

    Both got fucking owned by Bach in a cage match.

  17. I raise a glass of haggis milkshake to the arrival of the norwegian duck.
  18. I love the O2 and I loved the K1000 as well. They don't sound the same, but to say that if you like one you wont like the other is way out.
  19. Dubya is gonna be president for all of 2008 anyway, unless he actually manages to choke on some curly baked snack properly next time. Maybe I could run for you in 2009 on the Weetabix ticket? Don't get me wrong. I fucking love cinnamon. I just don't like it to be the primary ingredient in food. I like apple pie to taste of apples, with some cinnamon about it (and nutmeg and currents). Not to be a lumpy sugary pastry crusted cinnamon tasting paste. Also, cinnamon in a trace sprinkling, is the secret of the best mashed potato. But a pinch, at the most. My dislike for sweet cereals is a breakfast thing, I don't liek anything sweet at breakfast. No sugar in my tea, no syrup on my pancakes, no jam on my toast (and I like all of these things). I can eat Frosties, or Ricicles, but as a snack at 6pm. Not as day fuel at 9am. The points about whole milk in this thread are all well made I should add.
  20. I sent my first ever Valentines guff this year. She seemed to love the flowers, can't know for certain because shes down in England. Also, I love Cyanide & Happiness.
  21. UK cereals ftfw. I've never understood the American fetish for cinnamon flavoured everything, breakfast cereals least of all. If you want to make cheesecake I certainly wouldn't pick UK Philadelphia, I always thought you were supposed to use Marscepone, but then cheesecake itself means 20 different kinds of dessert depending on location. British cheesecake is basically marscepone mixed with your choice of flavour, on top of crushed digestive biscuit and with jam/chocolate/whatever on top. Its not cooked at all. To move back to cereal though, I think Weetabix is king of breakfast cereals. Hot or cold, crisp or like porridge, they win. For sugary cereals, I have a great fondness for Start, although that's now increasingly hard to find. Shreddies are good too, although the best ones are the quite new honey ones, which are almost as hard to find as Start. Anything based on oats, especially porridge, while nominally good for you, clogs up my bowels like I've downed the contents of a cement mixer. And I cannot abide very sweet or oddly flavoured cereals. That includes Frosties and Cinnamon Grahams, or Cheerios.
  22. I heard (one of) Fings sets at the UK meet. I liked them but didn't "get them". I didn't "get" the L3000 either but I'd have liked more time with it. I think it could have grown on me. K1000 was fabbo though.
  23. That didn't stop Precide from sticking a Hirschmann on the AMT even though the jecklin electrostatic used the same connector (and so did the plasmasonic plasma headphone) Stick the AMT into a Jecklin electrostatic transformer and say goodbye to the drivers because im fairly sure that they'd pick up the bias voltage as a drive signal. Since when has common sense been the primary concern of anyone involved in hi-fi
  24. The fundamental incompatibilities in amplification requirements is perhaps a reason to have a slightly different configuration and to make sure that the fact is known?
