I was in RS Sheffield a couple of weeks ago - they're as in the dark as
everyone else concerning the HD CD - 'maybe stuck in a boat between here
and China' was their best bet.




Hah!

Same boat as my sodding amp then!

Earlier today, I chased up the 300B amp I'm expecting from HK and was told
it isn't even in the country yet - after 4 weeks!! (Reputable eBay seller
looking in to it...) I was pretty jarred off in a '**** that, never again'
sort of way until I learned that our piano tuner had died unexpectedly from
natural causes sometime recently.* He was younger than me - equilibrium
restored pdq I can tell you!! (Poor sod - nice enough bloke, if a little
dour....)


Quite right - a bit of perspective, it doesn't *really* matter ...

(Mine dew, don't get me started on the *un-****ing-believable* Porcel Farce
Worldwide 'Thank you for holding' malarkey or I'll end up joining him!!)


I have quite a problem with the industry - what's all this 'stay in all
day on the off chance we pop round with your parcel suitably mangled
through our pre-industrial handling systems'. Hmph, it does *sort of*
matter ;-)


*Eat, drink, play records and be merrie moi beauties - for some of us life
*really is* that short, it seems.....!!


Well, there we are, not that important after all :-)
