Yes I always did enjoy his acting particularly in the Prisoner, and whilst I have never owned one I always wanted a 7, just never got around to it.

Yes we are thats a very true statement :grin:

Gosh, Richard.

Gosh!

I have a standard record I play with new gear. Candy by Lee Morgan. It all dates back to the time when a friend bought a Leben, and the first record we played was Candy, and it sounded awful. Just awful.

Well with the P20/A20 it sounded fine. Just fine.

You said, I would be shocked. Well, maybe I am not shocked, but I am pleased.

Record number 2 is going to be some heavy techno business.

I'll be back.

Well, maybe I'm going to have to admit it.

I'm shocked.

Ah! Yes of course..... I did wonder if it maybe meant I was being too slow and boring (not that I think snooker is slow and boring, but other people might).

But I must say I am impressed by what was in-the-box. (Open the box/Open the box).

Well packed. Lovely cables with nice terminals. The pre-amp was smaller than I imagined and the amp was bigger and heavier, than I imagined. And all very nice and lovely.

Things are connected up, so now I am going to go a long walk with the dog in the bright sunshine and cold air.....

And then - Serious Business.

Ooooh, I'm so lucky :D I get to do this so many times :dance:
