  1. That's fair. Maybe something like Kyle or Barry then. I still feel like I've done the poor boy a massive disservice calling him Mohammed.
  2. Have to confess I'm actually a bit gutted to see my lads name in that top 10. If I'd known Mohammed was such a popular name with heavy religious connotations I'd probably have named him something more conventionally British. Like Gary.
  3. Probably the most entertaining PL of the season so far. Thought the draw was probably a fair result and I'm a bit surprised by the reaction on here. A few bottles of broon should give a bit of perspective. 👍
  4. Aye, whatever my point was I'll concede I didn't articulate it very well. I only still check in because you're a mostly reasonable and fairly rational crowd. Football rivalries are one thing, but poverty and child abuse chanting boils my piss. Revelling in the idea that you're a better a class of person based solely on where you grew up, and most of you are better than that but still let a lot of comments like these through completely unchallenged.
  5. Aw that's really sweet and gives a great bit of insight on how you and your Scouse husband have one of the strongest marriages in the history of football rivalries.
  6. Try the JHS Supreme if you get a chance, it's probably the most versatile of the Superfuzz options out there that I'm aware of. Nothing wrong with the other options but they're pretty much just one trick ponies.
  7. I think you're baiting me here. Fuck it, I'll bite. Thats a long standing point of contention and a huge can of worms. I lean a little in favour of the people who will tell you "that's not a fuzz" despite loving most incarnations of that said pedal.
  8. Sorry to be "that guy" again but I'll need to be more specific than that. What's the fuzz? You still rocking the fuzz factory or moved onto some other fuzz face variant?

  10. "Updates" are still my only real major bug bear with a lot of digital music gear, but in Kempers defence making it a paid update probably negates a lot of the usual complaints. There's a good reason most recording artists and studios still tend to keep their daw setup completely offline. There shouldn't be any reason to update if it's all working as you want it to. Spending £300 quid to update a Kemper only makes sense to me if it's not already doing what you want it to do. Otherwise it's a bit like having a perfectly functional setup and randomly letting some random guy l swapping the valves out the valves on your amp and mod all your pedals all at the same time, then you spend 4 days trying to get it to sound like it did before you let him fuck about with it.
  11. Personally I'd prefer more installations like Torness. My favourite part of the drive down that coast for years is always looking at the handful of caravans tucked away behind that delipidated eyesore and thinking "who wouldn't want to retire there?"
  12. I think that's called the Peter Principle. Competent people that have been in an organisation long enough to manage to climb the ladder until they plateau in a position where they're completely incompetent but almost impossible to sack. So if it's any reassurance at all, it's not just been bad luck that you've seen it everywhere you've work. Seems to be pretty common in almost every workplace. For my money, the hiring process that enables this is a similar phenomenon to when I'm walking home from the pub but instead of taking the most trouble-free route home I often inexplicably end up taking a much longer walk that coincidentally features a few other pubs and other very real dangers like the threat of divorce.
  13. Cardiacs Sing to Tim gig on Friday. Realised on the way in it's 20 years since I'd last heard any of their songs live. Properly cathartic experience and I spent most of yesterday trying to work out who the fuck the absolutely magnificent bastard they brought out to sing a few of the tunes Jon couldn't handle was. It was only Mike fucking Vennart. I've now got his rendition of this number stuck on a loop in my head and for whatever reason I want that loop to continue until I get to witness it again.
  14. That's looks like 5 showers in one cubicle. Party time.
