  1. Some VERY good news at last - live music back by Spring 2023? - Suggestion for new thread title .................. 😎
  2. That's a non-tecnical term for 'a race to the bottom'? 😎
  3. Purists look away now - Sound system set (as used, by me, for years) Garrard 401 turntable (with felt pad brake removed) Felt slip mats for instant start of disc on already revolving 401 Goldring Lenco arm with strung thrust weight removed and rear of arm fixed with epoxy Cartridge - Shure N44c (juke box jobby)
  4. Which is why analogue tape masters were usually recorded at 15ips and never below 7.5ips, the 'usual' domestic speed of 3 3/4 ips was regarded as pretty unusable by pro studio setups & usually reserved for sample tapes for clients. 😎
  5. Yates - that's a sort of downmarket Spoons, right? 😎
  6. I have 'customers' who do this with clothes - come in, see what it looks like on and then gypsy's kiss off and buy it online. To the extent now that if anyone phones & asks if we've got so & so, we just say no.............. 😎
  7. Yup, saw this about ten min ago, was going to post it....... ......the UK world is going to be stuffed with these sort of problems, all of which will get sorted out - eventually (whether or not that happens in my lifetime is another matter) 😎
  8. This is only going one way ............. IBTL............ 😎
  9. In the antiques trade, it used to be that vat was only charged on an item less than 100yrs old and then only on the profit margin - has this changed lately ? 😎
  10. Had one of these slung under the parcel shelf of my mini - in car record player? - sorted !
  11. This is fairly exhaustive - https://www.gov.uk/guidance/tax-free-allowances-on-property-and-trading-income
  12. I think it's still too new & shiny to get worried unless you are heavily into import / export ............. The truth / full horror (depending on how you view it) will take a while to sift through. ( imo / ymmv / etc ) 😎
  13. If you use T Cut, you must polish with something good afterwards - T Cut is NOT a polish' just an abrasive. 😎
  14. I hoped that 'they' would get the Army to do the distribution, not Yodel.............. 😎
  15. I suspect that music pubs will always be around in university cities, it's the mor suburbs that have lost a lot of venues? 😎
  16. Now this IS a surprise .............. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55302724
  17. Oz term for Poker Machines - we have them in the UK in some pubs, usually operated by gentlemen hailing from Derry (or thereabouts) .............. .😎
