Off Topic before the digital era

... thing I remember is that some pubs started having a table version where you sat down and it was inside the table ..that was ****ing weird ... maybe that didn't really appen and it was just the drugs

 

Maybe try reading the ****ing thread

table games have been mentioned.

 

... doesn't change the validity of my observation

 

I want one of those tables

 

The bit about photos is so true.

Photos. Little disposable cameras etc (virtually non waterproof) or buying a camera, trying to get the film inserted the right way.

Snapping away, then sending them off, and thinking, **** i hope there's no dirty one's, or how many will be blurred etc.

Then sharing them. With about 100 pixels per pic

 

I really miss photo albums .

This whole digital era is , imho , proof that you don’t get something for nothing .

Thank god vinyl is making a come back

 

Vinyl will never be beaten.

Keep your perfection

Just actually putting a record on.

 

I have about 400 lps at my parents . We are having an extension done this year , when it is complete , treating myself to a new system and getting the records down here

 

I love vinyl.

I have a big old sony stack system in the loft..Might make a return

 

I have an old Linn LP12 in the loft . Not sure if I should spend big money on getting it back in working order , or go new . Rega rp6 type of thing . Heart says restore it , head says I am not as young as I once was and my hearing it not as good , also it’s a bit of a pain and a big old bit of kit for a small bungalow .

 

you can buy portable turntables now, cheap as owt.

 

Yes I know , oh well , lots of time to decide . Mrs j is asleep so I’m off to watch some tv . Enjoy the rest of your night

 

Last can off cider (apple juice) for tonight.

actually its pear cider. still vit c

 

I used to love doing mix tapes from vinyl. It would take ages.

 

It was like the opening theme tune to a ****.

 

I don't miss much though and wish I had all of todays technology when I was young.

 

I knew I'd get out-geeked by somebody.

 

It never went away fella

 

Yes , but it’s more available now , even our local Sainsbury’s stocks albums .

Not that I would ever get stuff from there . Square records in Wimborne is the place for me

 

Nice piece of kit. I've got a late 90's Technics SL1200. Love that turntable. Playing through a Pioneer A676 amp and a set of Bowers & Wilkins speakers, with a little additional set up of Harman Kardon soundsticks and subwoofer, which I can run the computer through too
