    Favourite Ice-Lolly - Sucker - Ice Cream

    Same here - with the rule that it’s only ever bought when below £3.76. Haagen Dazs recently shrank the pot. Tesco’s Finest isn’t bad and sensibly priced. I’ll given anything a go which omits Guar Gum and other stabilisers - none of which have any place in ice cream.

    Pet peeves in films/tv

    Pencil thin torch beams instead of turning on the fekkin lights. Characters with supposedly super intelligence/powers being mainly dumb/vincible to allow jeopardy until - they win. An example I recall as especially risible was Clint Eastwood in Firefox. Frantically flying to escape a Russian...

    When I went on naim forum 😂

    You are spot on - an incredibly dumb question. What did you think you’d do with either answer?

    Table manners

    I've lived with depressed people. I've sympathised but, as I'm not a trained mental health professional, I've despaired and often sought to avoid their company. I mentioned this to a doctor who replied "Yes, the depressed are dreadful company and, yes, they drag you down". He didn't mean ignore...

    Bitcoin

    From YouTube, it appears that most of those that believe this aren't the sharpest cookies in the toolbox.

    Bitcoin

    Over the years I've bumped into a few enthusiasts for crypto but now know to avoid them like vegans. Without exception, they had a halting appreciation of the underlying maths but this bewilderment only indicated the smartness of the person (an engineer at NASA*, a Navy Seal - for other...

    Bitcoin

    I think some people don't find this a cause for celebration. Of course, those who like something-for-nothing may see merit. To me it seems the very definition of parasitism and calls into question the word 'worth'.

    Is this a safe way to complete a purchase?

    ALWAYS check such sites on whois - https://www.whois.com/ you’ll often find the site went up suspiciously recently.

    Naim Prices?

    Rega are an admirable company in many ways. Not the least in the way which Roy has worked toward devolving management out of existence. Difficult, at times seemingly impossible, this project appears recently to have come together. Although I’ve chatted with Roy about the intention I’d be...

    Naim Prices?

    A common problem for devices using displays, disc drives and/or digital components brought in from outside manufacturers whose business model relies on innovation and obsolescence. There’s a limit on the practical future support of such units. Which is not a good thing.

    Naims 552dr not so good after all

    It was an immense convenience. I believe Naim was threatened with legal consequences.

    Naims 552dr not so good after all

    If by green/white you mean the Naim Forum then I wouldn't. There's a rule over there that Les and Avondale may not be mentioned nor (obviously) discussed. This came about at Mr Wolstenholme's insistence and Naim, so reluctantly, complied.

    New Naim Audio product. Uniti Nova Power Edition

    As insults go - that’s pretty weak.
