  1. Is this supposed to be funny? Why drag Alvin Stardust into this ? Shameful post.
  2. Agree with all the above glowing reviews. The best £120 I've ever spent on gear. If you are a bit shy subjecting your neighbours/flatmates/loved ones to your late night noodlings/practice routines...blah blah.. this little bugger has everything you need and more. It is so easy to "download" backing tracks to the app, or put tracks from your library onto the app and practise along without anybody banging on the walls/your head/or threatening to break your fingers. I'd say that Boss have done a good job of keeping us musos out of harms way. Until Friday night at the Frog and Duck.
  3. I don't have the same Metal pedal so I can't help you with that, however I do have a few of the others in the range. Some of the Cool Cat range have extra dip switches to play with, these are located in the battery compartment and might not be obvious if you have velcro stuck under the pedal or always use a power supply. I bought one of their distortion or overdrive pedals online, and thought it was the worst POS ever ! Before sending it back in disgust (honestly thought it was broken) found a dip switch that gave it an 8bit sound, turned that off... pedal sounded pretty good. Suspect the seller didn't know any of this and was trying to offload what he also thought was a faulty pedal, probably why I got it at a stupidly cheap buy it now price. The Cool Cat Vibe is a gem.
  4. A wooden gravemarker will require regular maintenance....at the least, a once a year sanding, and then an application with whatever oil treatment you think is appropriate. It's a good way to honour your departed loved one and show some kind of recognition of their passing. As to whether that will do .....as you put it ..... Only you can answer that?
  5. Well done! Hope you are proud of yourself 🤮
  6. Methinks that could explain the current situation ? I've reread your recent posts and I was not referring to the late delivery of your appointments. Sorry if you are having a tough time, can only apologise that it came over like that.
  7. Poor you............ so sorry you have to put up with junk mail delivered to your letter box. Just like everybody else in this country. Because as @fleabag correctly states Royal Mail are contractually obliged to do this. Do you really think the posties on their rounds want to waste their time and energy doing this ? Every single day? Shouldn't your argument be directed elsewhere? Glad your new postie is polite........ that makes such a difference. Hope he shows some due dligence.
  8. It never did though did it? Isn't that the whole point of the written word? Convey your point, don't be ambiguous. Try not to be sarcastic 😀 Merry Christmas
  9. A comment on the Grauniad site from 2014.................. The Royal Mail has to compete with companies that operate with nowhere near the contractual obligations that RM have. It's set up to fail. Similarly, an NHS general hospital - which has to provide A&E and all sorts of other expensive services - is supposed to compete with a private facility that can do cheap routine operations on uncomplicated patients (and then rely on the NHS hospital fixing it if it does go wrong).
  10. "If the RM workers think that they are undervalued then they could go and work for someone else who will pay more**. Much easier than striking." "But I also added the note on the ** that "Therein lies the problem" or similar. The crucial point being that there isn't anyone paying more in that business." Can you not see that is a ridiculous circuitous argument ? Apologies in advance if I'm missing the point.
  11. I don't want to fall out with anybody on this forum. It is a forum and I would hope that we can forumize to heartz content😀 You did post this though..... "If the RM workers think that they are undervalued then they could go and work for someone else who will pay more**. Much easier than striking." To be fair my friend.... How does that come across ?
