Just found out that I'll be in room 21 on the first floor. I've never been to Scalford before so hopefully it is fun. Hope to see some of you there.

Oh no..... They've given you *that* room (the one claimed to be haunted) where things always go wrong......
My advice would be to try and swap it for somewhere else if you can A.S.A.P!!

That'll be the one. It's affecting things already. The tuner input on my amp has gone mono. There will be a bit of fixin' to do later. If owt else goes I'll nip to Tesco and get an ipod dock and fuck it.

I have just been to Tesco. I think someone must have warned them. The docks were in plastic security boxes.
I did stock up on beer, crisps and more cd's for the show, though.

I have just acquired Leak Delta 70 that needs repair. This is the start of my broken crap of the internet system. So far I am £6.50 plus shipping out of pocket.

I picked up a pair of B&W DM2a's off vinylspinner at the show yesterday. They sound pretty bloody good.

So what's new about this! In my view all the early DM's are good!
May be worth checking out the Coles supertweeters, often a casualty.
