Anyone else on here like classical music?

Who's your favourite composer and/or what it your favourite piece?

Yes, I’ve always preferred classical music to anything else. To try to decide on a favourite composer, however, is virtually impossible - these things change all the time, entirely dependent on mood. It usually fluctates somewhere between Bach, Palestrina, Mozart, Pergolesi and Faure, amongst others, with Locatelli, Vivaldi and Haydn occasionally thrown into the mix. Impossible.

To pick a favourite piece is similarly impossible, although this one from Mozart would certainly get a look in (Celtic fans may also appreciate the fact that it starts with the words “hail, hail” - I'm just saying):

Also, for no particular reason (other than the fact I’m already here posting links), here is the music that forms the basis of the Champion’s League theme tune. A classic. It’s magic the way the voices explode into it......

Are you from Ayrshire?

I don't know about Cyclonic, Tina, but the wee guy playing the banjo in this clip is almost certainly from Ayrshire (or Shettleston, perhaps). Stick him in some white leisure wear and a cap and you’re pretty much looking at an identikit of the average west of Scotland ned. Great guy. I’d love to see him hanging about the end of my street every night.

psycho you get that thing sorted ?

Not yet, Sword, thanks for asking. I ran into a minor problem (I&#8217;m not sure if this is because I&#8217;m using a Mac) and need my wife to fix it. She&#8217;s computer literate, whereas I get short of breath simply trying to turn the thing on. I reckon it&#8217;ll be sorted this evening, though, when she finally gets back from work (the inconsiderate swine).

I lived in Ayrshire for a few years and I've never seen so many people with missing body parts. Arms, legs, chins, ears etc.

Bunch of mutants!
