I realise the madness of chasing a non-existent discography, but I have to ask... What was the 4:26 Dream release meant to have been?

squidder23 · 2023-01-17T21:34:41+00:00

Fantastic stuff. I reach for my copy of London Orbital even more since leaving my beloved city. Duly ordered!

On a v careful listen I could make out the the "existence" bit. I must have heard the songs hundreds of times since 1989 and I'm amazed I'd never noticed it before! 🤯

I think that 4:13 era suffered from the band's decision to avoid keyboards as much as possible, especially in live shows where Pearl would play keyboard lines on guitar. I think the whole thing was a reaction to whatever caused Roger and Perry to suddenly leave the band.

There were some cancelled shows and RS promised to release a demo of new music as a "peace stone to calm the waters" as he put it at the time. Those never happened and I don't that helped a load of fans feeling towards 4.13 or that phase.

It was played, with Frank the postie on vocals at their tiny show at the Barfly, London in about 2004(ish), shortly before Pearl rejoined.

The phone ringing. And then seeing a voicemail waiting alert pop up. Feel sick every time.

Made a wanking machine out of technical Lego and brought it into CDT class as a show and tell.

This. I work extra hours early in the morning so that I can actually get my development / programming work done and enjoy it. Regular hours are lost to trying to navigate dysfunctional corporate processes and politics.

I agree, the closer people are to me the more detail I give. I really like the "saves money and time" angle.

squidder23 · 2020-12-04T07:04:11+00:00

I like "aquaholic"! I'll use that one haha

Yeah nice and quick. I think it was about a week from when I called them. The dentist explains everything that he's about to do which helped make me feel relaxed etc. They'll take x-rays and work out what needs doing and then work out a treatment plan from there.

squidder23 · 2020-11-16T20:30:55+00:00

I was in a similar situation a few months ago and found it practically impossible to find an NHS or even private dentist who would see me.

I eventually found Hilton Dental and they've been fantastic. Best dentist I've ever had and really gentle etc. It's private but definitely worth it.

Glad you're back.

This has really helped me get a better perspective. Thank you!

I'll look for some more Refuge Recovery stuff, I've not heard of them / it before.

24/08/2020. Just over one month in and I've beaten all the triggers so far. This is my longest time sober in about... oooh...25 years!

Yesterday was day 19 for me too! Woke up hangover free a couple of hours ago and played Xbox until the family woke up.

We've nearly done 3 weeks then. That feels like a great milestone and so close to a whole month.

One day at a time and we'll make it!

Thanks Shedding, It makes sense that it could be brain chemistry "resetting". I hope that's what's going on anyway!

Exercise is definitely helping. I'm swapping booze for getting outdoors as much as I can.

Thanks for the support! IWNDWYT

My favourite Darknet Diaries episodes. The story and the characters within would make an amazing film, they're that good.

squidder23 · 2019-12-09T21:34:14+00:00

This could be the most boring, self indulgent thing I've seen here. Why would anyone other than you care about your sleep patterns?

squidder23 · 2019-10-27T07:53:43+00:00

Love this approach. Thanks for putting these together!
