Happy Christmas to all at hifi subjectivist.


* I once asked the doctor how come I survived as my stroke was near the base of my brain and other people with such strokes invariably die because there is absolutely nothing you can do.Luke Perry had a similar stroke and died at the same age. He said ''simple it was luck"
Glad that you pulled through, strokes are terrible things. Came as a terrible shock when I lost a friend to one last month who would have been 55 today. In the back of my mind that if it was not for Covid he would have been having check ups and it could have been prevented.

Early 50s appears to be the new age.

Everybody should get thier blood pressure checked and figure out if there is anything about you and your life style which puts you in an act risk category. It's a ticking time bomb.

Two Christmas songs that imo have some excellent drumming.

Band aid - Do they know it's Christmas. That little cockney bongo miracle does some real good stuff in this.
The Pogues- Fairytale in New York. Some good chops hear the end.
