@aptshadow.bsky.social can I just say that 'Service Model' is the best book I've read in many years. The humour and the fact that it's all so plausible just puts it in my very underpopulated list of perfect books. I'm enjoying the dogs of war series too, but nothing holds a candle to Service Model🙂

@loudandclearedi.bsky.social Hey folks. I remember seeing in one of your newletters that u repair all kinds of hifi. Is that the case? Got an Arcam amp that's just developed a fault and a Linn Power amp that's also been faulty for a while. If so, I'll get in touch to arrange &discuss likely costs!

@loudandclearedi.bsky.social hey folks. Do you keep the moon l10LPv2 in stock most of the time? I may buy another one from you next time I escape Aberdeen for your shores. Currently using a Graham Slee stage on my other vinyl system and have just come to the startling conclusion, that it's pants.

This collection of galaxies is known as the Leo Triplet. Captured last night during the first clear night in 3 weeks. Maybe an alien is posting a similar photo of our galaxy and its neighbour Andromeda, from a galaxy far, far away.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

I was going to say Happy Christmas to each profession individually, but it might be too much work. Don't know why I started with melon farmers.

It all started with Reagan many years ago. When he deregulated the media, he gave the purveyors of lies, conspiracies, and misinformation the freedom to do and say whatever they wanted.

So... What am I to make of the dozens of random 'followers' I seem to be accumulating daily. Is it a) totally bot-tastic mate, or b) the universe has finally realised that I'm worth listening to... Based on my 2 posts so far including this one? Sadly I think it may be a).
