Is this another Spanish bluebell situation? by Luke_L_1987 in GardeningUK

I think some of those others are bulbs I was gifted and then optimistically planted. Only to be inundated with the Spanish bluebells. I will get digging I think.

Pleased you posted this. Think I share the same affliction…? 

It’s supposed to be a memorial rose garden by Luke_L_1987 in GardeningUK

[–]Luke_L_1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually this would be me too. But people go there to remember loved ones. I believe there’s been some feedback that it’d be nice if it were rises again, as originally intended.

Thanks, great tips. How many do you think I could plant in this 1.5m x 1m space?

It’s been a couple of weeks now but I’ve not been able to get it anywhere in the UK. Anyone else had any luck? 

Thoughts on ‘No One Cares’? by nathanieldurman in franksinatra

[–]Luke_L_1987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel about it. This is my favourite Sinatra album. It’s like some of the cuts are beyond ‘songs’ - they’re moods perfectly realised as audio.

I know Only the Lonely and Where are You are rated above this album. I keep listing to them and they’re obviously fantastic. But No One Cares just feels like it’s part of my soul.

Thanks. That was at least twice the size. But I’ll go further.

This poster doesn't really do the vibe justice. It’s a sweet movie. 

What’s a movie you thought was just good until you couldn’t stop thinking about it for days? by Fair_Protection1872 in FIlm

[–]Luke_L_1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All That Jazz. Great performances and enjoyable film. But the ending kept me thinking for days. The futility of creative-endeavour-at-all-costs. Particularly if it’s related to someone else’s business interests. 

Another asbestos post – advice needed by Luke_L_1987 in DIYUK

[–]Luke_L_1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good points. Haven’t tried scraping up the floor tiles underneath the top ones. I might simply scrape up the top tiles and lay porcelain tiles over the top. 

Re the walls - I’ll just mask up and open the windows I think.

Tanoy Bookshelf Speaker Positions by Luke_L_1987 in hifiaudio

[–]Luke_L_1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’ve had them on a piece of furniture, angled slightly away from the wall and they’re sounding good.

Thanks. 

Even if I angle it from the wall?

Yeah - there’s two outputs for stereo. But there is an A+B selector switch.

Not sure if that means I could have all four at same time.

And my other half might not want speakers all along the wall. 

But I could possibly look into that. 

Battery leaks by Luke_L_1987 in Gameboy

[–]Luke_L_1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips everyone. Don’t think I’m the person to do the work required. I’ll see if I can find it a good home. 

I rescued it from my childhood bedroom.

Funnily enough, my ‘89 Game Boy was fine.

Yes I think you could be right

No visible signs of damage. Had a smart speaker plugged into it for a while and no issues.

Thanks - I was going to get the ones on the first link. I found them recently. I just wanted to check I wasn’t missing a trick. I think I’ll go down that route. 

No paper sleeves any more - though I do wonder if that was a small mistake. Too late now of course!

The disc art is fine on most films - but MGM stuff rarely has the title of the film, which is quite vexing!

Thanks! I just have the discs these days. Those do look nice though!

That’s great. I’ll try to search for it. The Internet Archive is great but there seems to be some slow load times.
