  1. My points b and c were perfect germane and your accusation of 'bullshit' is as peculiar as it is nonsensical. In fact, the situation I described is exactly what happened to The Point in Cardiff, inclusive of my points a to c and probably an additional d, e and f too. But thank you anyway for eventually actually addressing my sole question, even if it did take you 8 paragraphs of huffing to get round to it.
  2. So just to be clear -- you think it's ok to move in to a house close to an establishment that you know full well to be a source of noise, and then complain about it despite the fact that a} it was there first, b} you knew it was there, and c} you chose to live near it?
  3. ABOUT BLOODY TIME. But yes, too late for many fine venues. RIP The Point, Cardiff. There are only a few lower forms of life than someone who moves in near an established music venue, knowing full well that it's there, and then complains about it to the extent that it is forced to close. Scumbags. I hope their houses get infestations of mountain-beaver fleas.
  4. Senseless Violins - Sparks
  5. Yep, what they said. Everything that has been suggested above, and just keep at it. At some point it will become second nature. It's the whole 'patting your head and rubbing your tummy' thing.
  6. I Remember UHU - Frank Ifield
  7. Go Away - Living Colour
  8. Couldn't help it in all seriousness though, it is a v.neat idea. I'm normally wireless these days, but I'll try it next time I'm wired.
  9. Very neat. Nice idea. When I use it, I shall be sure to point out that I am using the patented Al Nico 'Cable Restraint At Point' method.
  10. You've got to admit though, getting any sort of tune out of a chimney is pretty impressive.
  11. Healthy Teeth, Healthy Me - Sesame Street
  12. https://ebay.us/m/ypGJKW Spoiler:
  13. Not many people know this, but I've got a time machine. I've just popped forward to 2029 to see what's going on there. A few things happening: 1. The USA has repealed the Declaration of Independence and is now known as 'Western Surrey'. 2. Joey Essex has just been elevated to the House of Lords. 3. You're buying all your basses back. Seriously though... it's always sad when factors cause one to fall out of love with anything, especially music. I really hope your new project brings you the enjoyment that your current one doesn't. Just don't sell everything.
  14. That would be potentially very interesting. Pickups are one of those areas that are going to be an awful lot more complex than at first sight... "yeah well it's just a magnet with some wire innit?", I doubt that somehow Would it be worth re-approaching these chaps much closer to the time?
  15. Breathless - the Corrs
  16. Hotel Room Cervix - Pitbull
  17. I choose £50 every 18 months for Elixir rounds

  19. "Posts that ridicule or undermine the seller, or comment on much you think it's worth, or where it can be obtained elsewhere for less will be removed." Quick reference - ADVICE for sellers and buyers v2
  20. Sew In Love - Ella Fitzgerald
  21. I was wondering who'd be first to spot it. Well done. 😁
  22. My favourite is Micro-timin' With Mr Bloe.
