I’m happy with my Skoda whichever ladder it’s on...

I have always considered myself English rather than British. Born in the Home Counties. ‘Leafy England.’ I’ve never warmed to the term ‘Brit.’ When we’re called Brits on TV I feel my hackles rise.

I think I’ll stick with my Skoda...

I don’t think so. BMW produce the MINI. I’m referring to the Mini.

The red one isn’t a Mini. It’s a BMW that looks like a Mini. I appreciate some on this forum don’t know what an original Mini looks like...

Do these speakers come with grilles ?

Could we decide on whether it’s ‘licence’ or ‘license’ ? In the UK licence is a noun and license a verb.

Absolutely, John. ( As you know, discussion on the LS3/5A continues unabated...)

I suggest you contact Canonman about the BBC Licence. He’ll give you a definitive answer.

Cyrus kit passed me by. I couldn’t get on with the aesthetics of their early small amplifiers. The rear ‘connection shelf’ idea didn’t work for me, though it seemed popular with many.

I wasn’t aware that the final BC1s had polypropylene drivers. Didn’t the SP1s have poly, and the BC1s Bextrene ones ?

I meant the British built Quad equipment. No way would I consider the Chinese built kit.

I appreciate the MX5 is a popular car, but I never could get on with its shape. The MG-F looked so my nicer to my eyes.

Yes, Quad kit just looks 'right' and performs perfectly. No constant chasing for the ultimate sound, like some do with Naim.

I have a Quad 67/34/306 running into LS3/5As. Just superb...
