That doesn’t sound like it’ll hold up in court.

My favourite time of the year could quite possibly be the pubs re-opening Duke.

11mm insert isn't gonna fit nicely in a 10mm hole

gonna have to drill it

eBay is dangerous for buying stuff I don't need...

4 bids placed, 3 auctions won... including one I already have.

I really should stop reading the old threads, April 2012 was fascinating, loads of great posts on how to fix this place... Loved Michaels particularly

And May 07... good times

lots and lots of good times

but it's important to learn from the past, so don't reopen old threads!

Adje, thank you so much for your recent output of video's... great to see a few I'd never seen before. Now I understand a lot of why Meat is so proud of hang cool.. ties beautifully with his philosophy of it's about the work.

But the Sheffield lemon performance really got my attention... not just cause it's as close as I'll probably ever see to my first Meat concert... but cause it's using what I thought was the WTTN stage set up.

The big question being, was the whole show recorded?

We all heard about quantitative easing during the "credit crunch"

Are we going to start hearing about qualitative easing for the eurozone??

Finally got the car up on axle stands, got the drill out... and found a fractionally undersized 27/64" drill bit.

But still not enough clearance to drill it in situ

Glad someone enjoys the clips

As for the Sheffield concert. No not the whole concert was filmed. You can even notice cuts during songs

As for professional recordings. Just the venue recordings for the screens in the venue. But I doubt we will ever see those

the dangers of catching up on content after a few drinks, is the sources of the content might get mixed together lol

especially worse when my mind is full of random thoughts

Live bat 3 stuff on this qbe, I wasn't expecting that

but it's been many many years since it was played with...

I was gonna have a play with the chromecast audio, but I can't remember how it works..

and I assume it needs charged... lol

I doubt the qbe has seen a power source in over a decade... I never did like mp3's

brad on the phone... this must be RAH

I've most of Adje's recent content still on VHS, recorded at the time... which reminded me, where the hell have I stashed my good video recorder???

As a hoarder of old tech, it'll be here somewhere, but I don't even remember seeing it since redecorating a few years back..

Worst case scenario, I've a couple of others to test stuff on :)

I must say, after reading the 10 pages of posts about Tyce's album, I actually can keep my opinion to myself on important topics...

And I still haven't heard it.
