    Yes, better, am working again thankfully. Typically have had about four other offers since I started working again..

    Glad you're sorted Ali!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Hi Andrew,

    £150 will be fine. You would need nearly that amount to personally collect from South Uist in fuel and ferry costs. I can ship via Special Delivery, and the parcel adequately packed, will weigh less than 2 Kg, so £11 will cover the shipping cost. You could send the funds via the bank fast payment service with no charges or Paypal if you cover their fee. I can send you the bank account details via PM for bank transfer.

    We have had some crap weather here this winter with repetitive Atlantic storm fronts battering us, but this last week has been wall to wall blue skies most days with calm weather. I must take some time off work and get down on the beach. My lass can apply the Ambre Solaire oil and ply me with Lagavulin and there are no midges around this time of year. It’s horrible living here, far from the madding crowd, you really would not like it here. The beach is usually empty except for the occasional seal and a few birds. I guess someone has to keep an eye on things out here so it might as well be me.

    Regards,
    Paul

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
