  1. Bad news man, it's a drag when pleasantries are pooped but I'd take weird over the unpleasant WPC spinster next door to me. Well divorcee actually, she was alright (sort of) until her rather short three month marriage.
  2. It's been grey here on The Wirral since late morning, no sign of any "sky water" just yet. Funny, when we don't want it, it pisses down constantly, when we do there's a drought.
  3. I need rain, last week I treated the front lawn with moss killer, mowed and scarified it Sunday, sprinkled on aftercut. Yesterday I used a liquid feed with the watering can, got the hose out to give it a good lashing and fuck me the sprinkler is broken, went to Homebase for a replacement, out of stock grrrr. Anyway the skies are grey rain (maybe thunder) are forecast so let's wait an see.
  4. No because I only heard those songs on the radio or TV (except Focus). It wasn't my Fourth Album the stylus was lifted from it was a friend I practiced guitar with, he had just borrowed IV from his cousin, it may have been the first time he played it, no idea, it was a long time ago. I was at another friends months later when I heard the full STH. I didn't have my own copy until about late 73 early 74. As to why my mate Pete lifted the "needle", maybe because STH intro had no woomph, don't know.
  5. I'd be satisfied with an all stereo 75 board, stereo on part of Page's bow solo and Bonzo partially on Moby Dick is not sufficient for me. Mixing the 99% mono MSG 75 to 5.1 was laughable.
  6. After two days of sweltering 24/25c heat today it's back down to15c the sky is grey and there's drizzle, so May ends as it began. Oh, hang on it's the 2nd of June, never mind.
  7. The new Bloomington 18-01-75 soundboard, I'm not impressed. Another dry as a bone 1975 sbd zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Good job it was free.
  8. I'm Gonna Crawl, my one time last song before bed, love it. Carouselambra, never liked it.
  9. Got my second Astra jab yesterday, as with the first jab got asked to sit and wait for ten mins before leaving. The allocated room had about ten people in there, all except one had their phones out staring at whatever they were looking at, can't people leave their fookin' phones alone for ten mins ffs, mine stayed in my pocket while I stared at the clock on the wall until it was time to leave.
  10. On Stairway, it was ages before I heard the whole song, as soon as that recorder came in the stylus was off the record.
  11. Excellent series, if you think what you have watched so far is good wait until you get to series five, six and seven. Rupert French as Peter Quinn is outstanding in his role, amazing storyline.
  12. Really, no love for 71 then, probably the best year of the decade musically. Now we need a review of 1969, the best year musically of that decade. Anyway, I just downloaded the whole 1971 series, tonight's viewing for me.
  13. I have that book, must get around to reading it sometime, bought it when it came out. I'm shocked that it has sat on my shelf for over five years unread.

  15. The rain has just been lashing it down, thunder and lightning too, spring my arse it's more like late autumn.
  16. 7am it was glorious, cloud free and bright sunshine, 8.30am the same, 9am the black clouds are rolling in,. looks like rain, again. The temperature has dropped too, think I'll put a jumper on grrrrr.
  17. Neither is better than the other, one though maybe favoured over the other depending on ones opinion. Although STH is iconic whereas ALS is not.
  18. Yesterday the weather was horrendous, the worst I can remember in the first week of May. We had almost ten mins of hailstones, the temp went from 11c to 2c, a couple of rolls of thunder, bright and sunny one minute then darkness. Here is a video taken just less than ten mins away from my house, the bad stuff starts ten mins in.
  19. I think you are being fobbed off, it's more like they haven't got the capability to sew on the fourth album symbols.
  20. Totally agree, I refer that era to that era as Gilmour Floyd, they are like a clock without an hour hand. Live 8 proved that, only four songs but the best Pink Floyd performance since 1981, it knocked any performance of the Gilmour period out of the ball park.

    This gave me a chuckle, is it true.. Americans be like “motherf**cker” this “mother f**cker” that all day long but lay one “cu*t” on ‘em and it’s 1775 all over again
  22. We are meeting with our eldest Son and his Girlfriend, seeing our ten month old Grand Daughter who we haven't seen since Xmas. Outdoors for a meal at a local pub, not ideal really. I'd rather they came to our house or we to theirs, f'ckin' "Covid" rules. We are missing some golden times in our little Alba's life.
