Today i got 2 records and a cassette

1) CASSETTE: Chase - First album
2) RECORD: Jefferson Starship - Blows against the empire (First album)
3) RECORD: Nazereth - Loud and Proud

I HAD THIS MONTHS AGO (Loud'N'Proud) and it sounded like cold garbage like it had been digitally altered!!!!

This album came out in 1973 (Digital era started in 1975) so I must have gotton a RE-ISSUE after 1975 ...... It sounded horrible....

The one I got today sounds excellent!!!! (Especally side 2) -- Warm and gorgeous as analogue should be!!

Re: What have you just bought?

A pack of two net laundry bags: These are mainly to keep smaller items together during the wash but I also have a very nice long, thick, white knitted acrylic scarf and I have to hand wash it as it would get tangled up in eveything or have to be washed on its own. The bag will keep it safe.

Woodwick trilogy candle (Sandalwood Clove) I love the crackle sound from these candles very relaxing.

Blue is fashionable these days, but I suppose it depends on the location.

Re: What have you just bought?

Metal cavity anchors to fit the new shower and rails to the wall. I learned my lesson years ago that ordinary rawlplugs just don't do the job on tiled plasterboard walls.



Now I am trying to find a wooden shower curtain pole (I don't trust the thin metal ones).

Remember to make sure the water pipes are not hidden behind the wall when drilling Taf.

Re: What have you just bought?

Or any electrics.

The other way to be sure of a decent fixing is to locate the studs and fix into them if they are conveniently located.

All pipes are in front of the wall due to the construction method.

No studs as it's dot'n'dab plasterboard onto aerated concrete blocks, which are so feeble you can push your finger into them, so not able to bear loads.
