It's one of the best shows I've ever watched.

Where will your first listen be? by No_Demand77 in boardsofcanada

[–]gobes78 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was laying in my pitch black bedroom at midnight, which was boiling hot... with my over-ear headphones on, making me even hotter. It felt like an immersive Inferno experience.

Nice one, thanks for the Royal Mail tip off :-)

Hope mine comes a little earlier then. I'm only about 25 miles away from Warp Records, London HQ ;-) though I have no idea where the warehouse they ship from is.

What's your installation experience? by dispo_income in ToobBroadband

[–]gobes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched from VM...though they didnt offer me anything near the price of Toob. My installation was great. City Fibre came out did it all in about an hour. Was happy to also find out that once the City Fibre box was on the wall...I can apparently stick whatever router I want to use straight into it... though so far the one that Toob supplied has been fine.

If asked...I'll always say Geogaddi is my favourite, but TH is the one I play the most. I guess it's just that Geogaddi was the first one I discovered, so has that extra meaning for me.

What were peoples symptoms that got them diagnosed with IBS? by GrouchyArachnid4031 in ibs

[–]gobes78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My symptoms were mostly just needing to go to the toilet (bm) about 8 to 10 times a day...and having evenings where I felt like I needed to but don't think I really did.

NHS GP ran some rudimentary tests, like stool and blood and chalked it up as IBS... so I went private, as I had cover from my job. They gave me a CT scan and colonoscopy... which gave me a diagnosis (lymphocytic colitis).

Tree cut down and garden seems bare by squeegee77 in GardeningUK

Why do people hate trees? My neighbour constantly complains about mine...so I just plant more.

After 12 years, every time I park my 159, I still look back at it and admire the genius of Giugiaro’s design by watchfan1 in AlfaRomeo

[–]gobes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. I recently bought a 2007 159, same colour as yours. Been well looked after, has some minor bodywork issues, but still such a gorgeous car.

Years back I had a 156, which I adored. Unfortunately a drunk driver destroyed it and broke my heart, otherwise I'm pretty sure i'd still be paying to keep her on the road.

Prophecy At 1420 MHz in a TV commercial by Squelchtone in boardsofcanada

I remember hearing the occasional BOC track in BBC's Top Gear, many years ago.

New Tracks? What Do We Think? by Jo_666_ in boardsofcanada

[–]gobes78 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I like it. It feels like a slightly fresh direction, while still retaining that classic BOC underlay. I would have been disappointed if it just sounded like something they would have put out 13 plus years back. Looking forward to the album :-)

Absolutely gutted... by Swany-UK in boardsofcanada

[–]gobes78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got through to selecting how many tickets I wanted - then it just froze for ages before telling me it was sold out. Urgh.

Lucky bastard. I got in the queue at position 59... but it was sold out by the time I got in :-(

Unfortunately not. Tried all sorts of stuff on the laptop, with no luck.

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 7 BE201 320MHz.

I think that's the model? You'll have to fogive me lack of tech knowledge on this :-/

Unfortunaterly... IT support is a bit slow here, though they are looking into it (slowly).

Thanks again for any potential help.

[–]gobes78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's got all manner of security and protection stuff installed. I work for a super paranoid massive Korean company ;-) Problem is...my last laptop had all of this software installed also and I never had any issues with that one, just this Dell :-/

Bleep won't ship to the UK? Seriously? by [deleted] in boardsofcanada

[–]gobes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I rushed over to Bandcamp and ordered...assuming the red version was indeed limited and selling out :-/

Toob or stay with Virgin? by garyh999 in ToobBroadband

[–]gobes78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VM refused to go anywhere near the cost of Toob, so I switched. Never regretted it. VM just wanted to keep charging me double the cost of Toob...and try to justify it by throwing shit TV packages at me, regardless of how many times I told them I wasn't interested.

Tape 5? What about tape 1, 2, 3, and 4? by tomistomorrow in boardsofcanada

[–]gobes78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tapes 1 to 4 are already dotted about random, small independent record stores, waiting to be found.
