Thought I'd revive this thread.
I know it's Sunday, but I've had a niggling feeling all day that I could use a beer or two tonight. It's been a while since I partook and I fancy it! I'll need to pop up the road to get some though. Cheers!
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I'm openingabottleofwine.
Went for a beer last night, Covid rules permitting. Had to give track and trace information, at the door, wear a mask, order at the bar, then sit outside (in the cold) with others who were smoking nearby (Happy detests the smell of cigarette smoke), and pay well over the odds for a couple of bottles of Peroni Nastro Azzurro.
Quite frankly it was a miserable experience.
