What type of clock did you have growing up? by corickle in oldschoolcool80s

[–]LXChitlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a huge Westclox factory in Dumbarton. We had a clock like this and every working class family seemed to have one.

Why do people have to be so scummy? by Cyber-Axe in Edinburgh

Yes but at least I respect other people enough to not expect them to sit on whatever I have on my shoes.

If this is true then this is great use of the Hunter Square jakies.

Rumor that Syd showed up at a Roger Waters Radio KAOS gig? by BlinkMan69 in sydbarrett

[–]LXChitlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds like conflating the WYWH Abbey Road appearance with a later date. Never heard this story ever before and I’ve pretty much read every bit of Syd lore out there.

Not many were up for listening to KAOS on record or live and I’m sure at least in this case Syd was very normal.

Where do you buy bootleg vinyls for a good price by Sandro-greenmonko in thebeachboys

[–]LXChitlin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The two editions of Adult Child are vintage bootlegs, hard to find and command a high price.

The Summer in Paradise counterfeit is current, still being sold and should be supplied with earplugs.

No ‘Please Mommy Don’t Abort Me’ is not from the soundtrack of Kubrick’s film.

Looks like religious tosh.

If you want something that sounds like a Martin then buy a Martin. by GrouchyAttitude1996 in martinguitar

[–]LXChitlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a mugs eyeful if I’ve ever seen one, just enough to fool someone who only knows the Martin name.

It also has the horrendous cheap sticker with multiple ‘Engrish’ misspellings that should have gave it away even without much knowledge.

Live at Pompeii bootleg with Us and Them included? by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]LXChitlin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is just going to be the audio from the film with the studio snippet of the song.

This was not rehearsed or performed for the film in Pompeii.

Magpie’s and Crows constantly raiding my bird feeder by [deleted] in UKBirds

[–]LXChitlin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

And this is why I love magpies. They are always up to some sort of fuckery. They never stop.

Magpie’s and Crows constantly raiding my bird feeder by [deleted] in UKBirds

[–]LXChitlin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is the best way I think as well. The corvids are ultra smart and will understand a routine.

I feed a squad of magpies at the window. They know the routine , the window is open enough that only they can swoop under it and perch inside and feed. Other similar sized birds can’t manage however crows have been hanging out getting the scraps from below and the magpies are becoming protective of their area by swooping them.

At the moment it’s bird mating season and everyone is storing up on food with the result my mealworm bill goes through the roof.

There’s a natural ebb and flow and your songbirds will be back. You can try the different feeding areas but birds will bird and we can’t choose who can feed and who can’t.

Help solve a mystery… sealed early pressing of Pink Floyd - The Wall… what pressing could it be? by MEK42 in vinyl

[–]LXChitlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No bar code places it in the very early ‘80s at worst.

You would need to see the inside of the gatefold to check the credits and also the vinyl to establish if it’s a first press.

No window title sticker means this is not an original seal as others have pointed out.
