    New Phone Scam. ( to me..)

    A few weeks ago I had some automated calls to my mobile allegedly from my bank telling me that I had a possible fraudulent transaction on my credit card and to press whichever number to confirm or not whether I'd made that particular purchase and talk to a support person. After me hanging up...

    Floorstanders to replace LS3/5a

    Yes, in fact if it had been a couple of months ago I'd have snapped them up myself.

    Floorstanders to replace LS3/5a

    How about some Graham Chartwell ls6/f? There's some just freshly reduced in price on ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266776183748?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338728743&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1:

    what was the last piece of hifi you bought

    Yeah classic Quad is definitely really easy on the eye. I especially like these in the stand, even though in some weird way it kinda reminds me of an ncp car park 😅

    what was the last piece of hifi you bought

    Quad 34/306/FM4 stack with original stand. Sounds absolutely lovely into my Quad 10L, which comes as no surprise :) Quad%20system%20by%20dcallaghan50,%20on%20Flickr'][/URL] Trying to decide whether to commit to keeping it properly long term and invest in getting the 34 & 306 serviced.

    What does it mean to you to be English?

    Can't really help as although I've spent 99% of my life in England I'm 'British' having been born elsewhere and 'naturalised' when brought into the country as a baby. I guess I grew up feeling more English than anything else but in the last couple of decades that has withered away and now feel...

    BBC "License" for LS3/5a

    Probably as much for the permission to use the 'LS3/5A' name as anything, and/or reference to the BBC on any label which adds gravitas and ties the item to that lineage.

    Quad 306 set up

    Whoops! This tidy set was for sale fairly locally at a very reasonable price and I failed to resist. Quad%2034,%20306,%20FM4%20by%20dcallaghan50,%20on%20Flickr'][/URL]

    Air Fryer

    Yeah we have a bit of a space problem i.e. not enough worktop. We plonked the air fryer next to the microwave as that was the only place it could go and have access to a socket but it's not ideal and we're now also short on sockets! The bread machine just squeezes into a cupboard when not being...

    Tory leadership failure Part V: Rishi ‘Infosys’ Sunak

    Is it my hearing, or can't Liz Truss can't even pronounce 'America' properly these days, she seems to have abandoned the 'A'. Unless it's deliberate o_O https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-68821646

    Quad 306 set up

    The early 909 were UK built and just an evolution of the 606/707, so is it the general styling that doesn't hit the spot? You wouldn't be alone, my other half said my silver 909 looked like a small photocopier 😅

    Flexible and home working and custom and practice

    It's happened at least once in one of my morning meetings, but it wasn't me - someone getting up to answer a knock at the door revealed their boxers. It was all very funny 😁. I was also heartened to spot the top of a hot water bottle sneaking into shot from behind a desk a couple of months ago...
