Buttered rye bread with sardines in tomato and tomato pieces. This is going to be very nice!

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I've just resurrected my valve head amp.
It didn't work
Had a gander and realised I'd nicked the output capacitors
Working now
Such fun.

After a few hours of use my Garrard 401 starts to smell like my grandad’s old Bedford van.

Have you noticed that you can't buy spray bleach now? I use it quite a lot for cleaning and wanted more. Nowhere seems to stock it now. Probably regarded as a potential weapon!
It'll be oven cleaner next!!

Lol - what do you guys use that stuff for? It's nasty.
We use bleach very occasionally (such as on our enamel bath), as bleaching everywhere is not particularly good for your immune system - and if you clean stuff often enough it doesn't need bleached!
Cleaning products made from natural ingredients are far better than anything with chemicals in them - certainly much healthier
