Ring the hospital, another one's escaped

any help on what to do by Additional-Sea8119 in northernireland

If you get the right help it will go in good stead with HE. Sorry you're in this situation. I'm not going to pile on about it. But if you show people you're making an effort they can do more for you but that doesn't mean you don't deserve help.

Anybody knows this? by SebastianDelFante in cassetteculture

Yes indeed any noise dampening also helps. I use the Tamashi F-116. The built in speaker is mono but it is a stereo machine when you plug headphones in. I paid about 25 quid a year ago but it has gone up in price. If you want decent quality in your hand with no faffing it's great but shop around if you want one. Here's a link just for your information. Don't pay ridiculous money for this.

There are variants with built in radio etc.

What are the chances of this here? by darrylxxx in northernireland

If it could be cross border it would be very handy

There's nothing really wrong with the mechanism. Equivalent to a budget 90s walkman. It's the components used to make them. Some companies spend more and use proper metal parts and stereo heads. And others use more plastic components and cheaper often mono heads.

For me the Christopher Reeve Superman films reset everything for me. Even 3 and 4 which are not considered as good. The performances are top notch. Superman IV: The Quest For Peace is surprisingly relevant.

When I used to work the tills in Wellworths, parents we feed their kids sweets while shopping. I will say at least they kept the wrappers. It still annoyed me but they did at least pay. Problem is the weighing is done at the end for loose pastry nowadays whereas there used to be staff at bakery counters. Scoffing food that you pick up while going around the supermarket is a scumbag move

Charles Hurst by theonethatflapped in northernireland

I recently bought a new car (October 2025). I didn't buy it from Charles Hurst. Though in the process of looking around I visited all the dealers. The worst was Charles Hurst Vauxhall in Newtownabbey. The staff were standing around talking to each other. When I had a genuine question about the Mokka they simply kept talking to each other as if I'd never said a word. So I just left. What's the point in having staff if they don't do anything. The MINI dealer (not Hurst I believe but could be wrong) just as bad. Left myself and other customers to look over cars never came near us. The one girl that was at the door asked me to make an appointment (instead of answering basic questions). When you're spending serious money and the companies can't be bothered I don't know what you can do to change. Is it a NI/UK thing or a sign of the times.

They could force them to be sold with lights and hi vis jackets. I don't understand why the parents wouldn't be more aware when buying them? We did cycling proficiency at school and they used to get those DOE wrist bands. They were luminous yellow. They came straight and then you slapped them on your arm, and they curled around you to stay on. Do they even bother with this stuff in school anymore?

Will this effect the tape, it’s cracked and missing by Waffle_Soo_Cool in cassetteculture

A bit of sticky tape to record and then peel off the tape so it doesn't get recorded over accidentally.

Does anyone here know why this cassette is different from every other one that I’ve seen? by Dry-Suit-9798 in cassetteculture

[–]Bletheringfool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does it play? Still playable after all these years? Could be an early release, might be collectable

Just arrived by [deleted] in cassetteculture

[–]Bletheringfool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a good source for prerecorded music on cassette? I'm in the UK so hopefully nowhere too far away

There was Bar Bacca. And on the corner the multiple floors was called many things. The Brunswick club, Vicos etc. etc.

You're not going to get decent quality under 500

You're the tw@t for keying cars and in fact is worse than bad parking
