    Great photos Roy, looks like you're having a good time.

    OH, still laughing at you sampling your first BBC. Did it hurt?

    Very flexible dining hours - 6:30 to around 10 & you can stay at the table after that. We’re trying out the specialist steak restaurant tonight.

    Some of the reagge blues club sound systems I used to go to in Bristol years ago were pretty astonishing. Valve amps and huge bass bins they could shift air like you wouldn't believe.

    This was just the right amount of loud with amazingly clear middle & top end.

    And I bet the owners didn't spend much time going to Hifi shows, and sitting there nodding their heads and going "Ooh, if we just change the cartridge to XY model, it'll image so much better". Rather they'll just buy the biggest they can afford, join it all up and make some awesome sounds
