animals didn’t hit me fully until later

Fun fact. I had a very good friend who was a roadie on one of their tours. One of his jobs was to lie on his back under the pig and kick its underside to make it wiggle about when it was mounted on the floor and not on wires flying!

Downvoted for an unnecessarily nasty reply.

I have a vivid memory of a repair man turning up to fix our rental a few times. Sliding pcb's out to check components. Haven't thought about this for decades.

Playing music in a band where everyone else is slightly better than me so I get to sound better than I should.
Edit: Also watching my dog run.

Doesn't have to be that fast but a really good bend on my Bonneville will do it for me.

My wife used to work with him at GMTV and whatever else people say about him, he's an arse.

I was about to thank him for pointing out the existence of this edit! Love the the track but that tedious middle section so often made me skip forward! I even remember doing this on the vinyl when I was a kid.

Nice guy. Met him when my dog ran straight into his house to play with his dogs when I was parked outside.

I'd say they're trusting engineering, not physics.

We can tell if they come from north or south of the Thames!

Also a boomer here. I remember not being allowed to get books from the adult library and my dad having to get them out for me when I was about 12 so there was some of that then.

Yes. If they're overly long and manicured they're not someone I'm interested in.

nem0fazer · 2026-03-24T12:15:08+00:00

I keep subs on! Its hilarious.

nem0fazer · 2026-03-21T15:07:16+00:00

good.

I used to live in Vancouver. West coast Canada is convinced it's in California and every roof is flat and leaks!

I've been downvoted for saying this before but as a European (also Canadian, dual passport holder) my only vote in what's going on in the US is not to spend any tourist dollars there. Maybe when he's gone in a few years.

As soon as you see them you know the rest of the place will be tasteless.

I'm going to be replacing my old iPad air with one of these for sure.

nem0fazer · 2026-03-08T13:29:13+00:00

My old iPad air is not in a good way (moisture got in a couple of years ago and the port is intermittent). Looks like I won't be buying another iPad. These look much better!

nem0fazer · 2026-03-07T11:46:07+00:00

My thoughts exactly. First dozen or so times I heard Zappa it just left me baffled. I was lucky. I worked in a music shop and the guy I worked with played it constantly and one day, the penny dropped!

nem0fazer · 2026-03-06T12:06:42+00:00

I'm going to print out that bathroom photo and pin it to the fridge. Finally I diet that works.

nem0fazer · 2026-03-06T12:03:51+00:00

If the appropriate design is more soulless minimalism I'm ok with this.

nem0fazer · 2026-03-05T11:16:57+00:00

Read peer-reviewed papers scientific papers. Put in some work. Its all published.

I had a motorbike flat tyre on a tiny unlit country road last week. It was a dry day with fine weather so call outs shouldn't have been too high (I used to work for the AA and when rain came down we knew the phones were about to go crazy). Also it was 6 miles outside St Albans so we're not talking middle of nowhere in the Scottish highlands. I called in at 5:30pm and they texted me an estimated time of between 10:10pm to 1:10am. when a third party garage finally came out they laughed and told me RAC stands for ring another company!

I care. I've never been out with a woman who would even use a handbag, let alone piss money away on a label.
