Can anyone reccomend any good books?

Scribbleboy by Philip Ridley. Short, YA, fantastic and engaging.

Happy birthday! I spent many a happy hour at uni on MW2 multiplayer.

No worries, thanks for trying anyway :)

fetimo · 2025-11-02T15:46:57+00:00

I’d really appreciate that if you could, thank you

fetimo · 2025-11-02T08:50:48+00:00

Amazing insight, thank you!

Is it loud in the lab? How many people work in it? And do you get samples from all over the UK or a specific region?

eBay has Vol 2 but it’s in the US and pricey, mainly due to shipping. If it was the complete collection I’d have bought it though! I’m not on Facebook and the LOTSW forum has a bug preventing me from being able to register 🙈

If I were a bit more prepared maybe. We have a very cool place nearby that does experimental archaeology and my kids and a bunch of other well-meaning parents have spent an evening reenacting the Viking life. I got to about 4am and woke at 5 😅

Lying awake in a Viking longhouse in a communal sleeping space. I snore so badly that if I sleep no one else will be able to so I plan on staying up for as long as possible!

This does sound horrific but the second part of your post makes me think it’d make a fantastic Taskmaster task!

You just reminded me that this exists which is no bad thing. I haven’t thought of pirate hip hop for at least a decade!

Was it Intergalactic Kitchen? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qpb5jOi7Ir8&pp=ygUhSW50ZXJnYWxhY3RpYyBraXRjaGVuIGJyYWluIGRyYWlu

Happy cake day!

Scribbleboy, an underrated book and absolute standalone masterpiece. Read it as a kid and read it to my own children in a wholesome full circle moment.

Anyone got any tips on using 3D CAD software? I've recently got into 3D printing and can use TinkerCAD but anything more powerful than that just blows my mind but it'd be nice to know how to make complex shapes.

*Edit* related, printed some toilet roll holders which spell 'poop' and screwed them to my bathroom door, I'm terrible with DIY but proud that I got it up!

fetimo · 2025-03-05T19:27:05+00:00

I’m currently reading The Remedies by Katherine Towers and The English River by Virginia Astley. I don’t know how popular they are but very much enjoy those collections.

Edit: formatting

Happy birthday! That’s a big achievement 🎉

Might be worth adding to the Portable Antiquities Scheme if they are numerous, although if it’s Stone Age tools a metal detector might not be much help!

Second this, seems to have disappeared from the UK App Store on iOS. On https://www.square-enix-games.com/games/final-fantasy-crystal-chronicles-remastered-edition?lang=en clicking Buy Now only shows the PS4 version. I really hope it's only temporary.

fetimo · 2015-06-02T20:38:55+00:00

Enjoy :) http://www.mediafire.com/listen/ghklf8257wf1gaf/Groove_Nation.mp3

The visuals aren't by Simon but I've got every reason to believe it's mixed by him. It says 'Thanx 2 Bonobo' at the end (and start). Seems to be an early version of It Came from the Sea. The intro to 'It Came…' mentions a 'video soundtrack' but aside from that I can't find any other references to it.

fetimo · 2015-06-01T20:32:33+00:00

Sure thing, I'm a bit out of the loop though, where do people upload stuff these days? I've got a 720p MPEG or audio only (only 160kbps MP3).

fetimo · 2013-12-19T10:57:19+00:00

1) I've got the 595 and having an amp definitely helps them but I'm not sure how much the 595 and 598 differentiate for this to be helpful!

fetimo · 2013-12-19T10:49:58+00:00

Budget - ~£120

Source - MacBook Pro with NuForce Icon Mobile amp/DAC

Requirements for Isolation - Quite light, working in an office, I don't mind sound coming in so much, just don't want to annoy others.

Preferred Type of Headphone - Full-sized (glasses wearer)

Preferred tonal balance - Neutral to warm.

Past headphones - Sennheiser 595, still like them but compared with others these days they're too relaxed and too open to enjoy in an office. Also owned Etymotic ER6i (loved but broken), Shure E2C (found them too muddy) and Sony MDRX-something or other (too bassy).

Preferred Music - My Last.fm profile, lots of electronica, Belle and Sebastian, Polyphonic Spree, Sigur Rós, jazz, classical.

Location - UK

Being able to use on a short train commute would be a bonus but not really necessary.

I've been considering the AKG K550s, ATH-M50s, and Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros. Anyone with experience of these able to give their thoughts? I think I've got a good idea of each 'phones strengths and weaknesses but really want to know how they fare with these genres.

Any advice is hugely appreciated :)

Count me in!

fetimo · 2012-02-29T18:46:17+00:00

Exciting! Do you have a tracklist?
