That's all very well but how much have I got to shell out for the coffee table?

I thought the recent deluxe box set of Sgt P was expensive.

I got it for Christmas last year and when I looked up the price I felt embarrassed because I seldom spend that much on gifts for the nearest and dearest as a whole let alone on any individual.  I am such a tight git.

It's a good thing I only like Rush in passing else my loved ones would go bankrupt this Christmas.

Oh dear... rather puzzled by this shameless money-grab. Not normally Geddy's style. I quite fancy getting hold of the entry-level book:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Geddy-Lees-Beautiful-Book-Bass-ebook/dp/B07GDMJH3K/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1538761240&sr=1-1&keywords=geddy+lee+bass

£20 Kindle - bit pointless

£50 hardcover - I'm in!

Hope he doesn't rag on the Rick as he's tended too. I loved his late '70s/early '80s bass sound.

All you early adopters must be feeling proper smug with yourselves.

 

If I see something with a long future publication date like this, I'll always just buy it.  You know for certain that Amazon don't have a confirmed price and you can always cancel pre-release date.

No brainer really.  It happens loads.

I don't do money on the 'net any more.  That was a no brainer for me after money went missing with the old bank and they more or less said it was my own fault.  The culprit was never identified.

Your mileage, of course, may vary.

Aside from one issue where I got charged £999.00 for a Dominos pizza (sorted inside 24 hours, free pizza followed), I  had money go twice on Paypal, yonks ago, but got it back on both times. 

I think the irritation was the not knowing how it happened and how easily it did considering how much account security is supposed to be in place.

Yes there was that.

What really bothered me was that the bank at the time (Halifax) passed the enquiry over to the IT people who said that the money had gone to a porn account somewhere.  They had found no evidence of a hack.  They then had the gall to suggest that I had made the transaction and that I was shy of admitting it.  I asked them to put that in writing because I had never done anything of the sort.  They came back with the news that they aren't governed by any of the rules that govern banks anyway.  In other words - Good luck with that!

I was unhappy with the bank for other reasons so that was the nudge I needed to change.  My current bank has locked out all Internet access to my accounts at my request.

If I want anything off the Internet now I pay a friend to get it for me.  Usually I try and keep my business local to support what's left of the local economy.
