Is it this fellow..?

Mend your keyboard whilst you're at it. ...

Thanks for the offer, old chum, but 'I'm good', as they say on t'telly these days.

I really, truly, don't understand. I gave you a rational answer, and then another rational answer to your posted reply. Where did I go wrong, enough to start your stuff about 'bad things happen' or whatever..? From then on, it makes no sense to me. It may be me, of course, but I think I have a basic knowledge of English (although I'm in France...), and am well used to posting on forums in many languages (but not Latvian, I'm afraid...). Please believe that we are in good faith, trying to help when we can, in a spirit of goodwill and harmony (with a little humour from time to time...). There is never any need, or advantage, in replying in sharp terms. This is not 'my opinion'; it's the way this Forum works, and works well. Are there any problems with that..? Es tiešām, patiesi, nesaprotu. Es sniedzu jums racionālu atbildi un pēc tam vēl vienu racionālu atbildi uz jūsu ievietoto atbildi. Kur es kļūdījos, pietiekami, lai sāktu jūsu lietas par "notiek sliktas lietas" vai ko citu..? Kopš tā laika man nav jēgas. Protams, tas var būt es, bet es domāju, ka man ir angļu valodas pamatzināšanas (lai gan es esmu Francijā...) un esmu labi pieradis forumos daudzās valodās (bet ne latviešu, es baidos ...). Lūdzu, ticiet, ka mēs esam labticīgi, cenšamies palīdzēt, kad vien varam, labas gribas un harmonijas garā (ik pa laikam ar nelielu humoru...). Nekad nav nekādas vajadzības vai priekšrocības atbildēt asiem vārdiem. Tas nav "mans viedoklis"; tas ir veids, kā šis forums darbojas un darbojas labi. Vai ar to ir kādas problēmas..?

Be careful what you ask for.

Soooooo... Opinions were not what you were asking for..?

Define 'everybody'.

Hmm... It would seem that I just can't help some people.

In that case, I would suggest that the question was badly worded, and could have read 'Has anyone any experience, good or bad, with returning goods bought on-line from a major retailer..?' or similar.

Doesn't it just peel off on its own..?

Alicia..? Who the fu... Oh, no; sorry...

There are laws in Latvia..? ...

The on-line Sellers you mentioned don't have such clauses, and if they did, they are not enforceable. Not the same for private sales, of course.

Any BC members in Leicester that could pop in and inform them of this topic..? At that price, I doubt it would sell that quickly, but better let them know it's 'hot' as soon as possible, no..?

Just send it back for a full refund. On-line purchases are protected in that way, as there has not been an opportunity to try it before buying. Simple, really.

Here is my contribution to the January 2023 Basschat Composition Challenge, illustrated with a picture chosen by the Master of Ceremonies: Lurksalot. I've composed the jingle for the TV spot that this paradisiac resort has commissioned. All is in the title, really, it's a hypnotic exhortation to make you think of Paddling, Pedalling and Pédalos when next booking your holidays. Cunning, no..? The magic was easy and quick enough, with three silver-voiced lasses harmonising , and a couple of suitable (and rapidly found...) samples, to flesh it out. Standard Cockos NY bus on the Master channel, and that's all, folks..! Thanks for listening, if you already have; if you're about to, enjoy, and wishing everyone a Happy New Year.

On a recent trip to the UK, we had a family outing to assist at the 'Dear Evan Hansen' musical in that there London Town; playing your tracks brought this to mind, with a rare subdued quality and original production. Excellent Stuff; thanks for sharing.

That was the final straw. I surprised myself with the alacrity with which I was able to turn it off.

I found it very easy to resist.

Yes.

The Great Man would have to answer for himself, but I'm of the same opinion, and would like to think it to be so. Mr Mattacks is capable of creating many styles, but one could quite easily believe the sobriety shown here to be in homage of the subject. He certainly embellished the Fairports in all of their later collaborations, and I have much respect for him.

You're new here, then..?

Future-proofing..? Wants and needs evolve over time.
