A mainly digital setup with a musical amplifier and endearing 1970's speakers. A CD player that hardly ever gets used and a turntable that is good enough to remind my how enjoyable my old vinyl is. Some cables and things.

Lol - nice one! Admit it though, have you used your scope to spy on any 'hot chicks'... Must be a few topless bathers nearby, in this heat, thinking that they're 'safe' behind their fences...

I'm guy.
no cloud at all and 28c - sun feels very intense, top of head tingles within minutes
I had to bring puppy in as Staffies seem to love sunbathing, but very little hair (like my head) to protect from sunburn.

Seems to be quite mild by comparison down on the south coast - only 21 degC currently.
Still, it’s warm, sunny and perfect weather for an open top car, so I’m happy!

It hit 30°C here today. Been outstanding weather.
It looks like it's staying for the week with Sunday looking to be the best. Lovely weekend for my 5 year old's birthday party.

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!”
