  13. My sister-in-law asked me if I was losing my hearing. today. I think my new headphone amp and heavy metal might have something to do with it.

      I looked at the weather stats and it was 73 and 45% humidity which surprised me because it seems a lot higher than that.

      Low humidity weirds me out :|

      A couple nights ago I was watching the weather, something I seldom do because they are more likely than not to be wrong, but the temp at midnight 85 and the humidity was 80%

       

      The next few days are are supposed to be in the triple digits and 90% humidity. Can we say severe thunder storms? Hell the way the weather is here I wouldn't be surprised by snow...

  15. What a difference a headphone amp makes to music on a mobile phone... bliss!

      Can you get a dinky, pocketable headphone amp? Be a bit warm, not to mention suck batteries dead in no time. I agree though, valve is heaven. I got a Topping NX1 with Betron earphones. I got some headphones but they are not loud enough. The amp needs to be beefier. I'm pretty deaf. I might get a more powerful amp to drive my Sennheisers later.

      Right ear-piece on my earpohones has just popped; despair. Heaven will have to wait whilst they they are replaced. :(

      Betron are sending me a replacement ASAP. WOW! They only broke a few hours ago and I emailed them about two hours ago.

  16. having given up sugar, i nearly bought a bag kidding myself that i''ll only put it on cereal. I wonder how long I would have lasted before I put it in my coffee. It's a persistent addiction. :)

  17. Just found out my dad died two years ago; news travels slow sometimes

      Thanks. Same here, last time I spoke to him was in the 90's. I thought I might meet him again one day. This is what happens when you render yourself incommunicado from all channels of family gossip for a few years.

      I'm sorry for your loss.

      I'm even more sorry that you and your dad weren't close.

    4. StringJunky

      StringJunky

      Thank you MigL. Yes, it is a shame but C'est la vie. I was moved to comment here because of how long it took for the news to reach me. My ex-sister-in-law told me on the off-chance: " Oh,you know your dad's died don't you?" My nephew, her son, goes to see his dad, my brother, and he must have told him sometime. Families...

  18. Tell me I don't need another phone. I only want it because it's orange and I've got a black one.

      Mine's bright yellow.

      ( yes, I'm vain and shallow )

      Ummm... yellow could be the new orange. It's ok to be shallow. That's what this status is about. :)

      I'd like to know May's position on climate science, looks like it'll be her. Gove has Boris' blood on his hands.

      Lets all start waving the Union Jack outside of our window and chant "Farage for Prime Minister" over and over...

      I have a rather prominent ex tory minister (who is a europhile) living opposite my office - I rather think he would have me arrested if I did that. I know I would if the situation were reversed.

      I would have you sectioned!

      Wow. Putting something like that behind you must be a great feeling. Congratulation!

      Yes, Zapatos, I feel very lucky. I didn't realise how much of a weight it was until it was gone.

  24. It'll be a sad day if we leave Europe on Thursday; as much as the EU annoys me.

      The UK is due in the week to have a referendum on whether it stays part of the European Union. Polls suggest opinion is roughly even.

      I guess it's a sad day. What will this mean?

      Just read it. Fucking hell... I am disappointed.

      I enjoy a good thunderstorm from a roof covered porch, though not so much when I'm getting wet.

      The air smells good after one.
