The Verdier is playing some Miriam Makeba tonight. It's great having two arms. The Schroeder/Allaerts and Hadcock/Decca are quite different. Neither is really better - it's just that each combo suits different recordings. Anyway time for a beer and some more music!Hi Charlie,
How's it going?

Thanks. There are times when I wish I were still playing. It's quite hard to find something else sporty to do when you've spent almost 15 years in the middle of the front row. Anyway at least it means I can comment on what happens in the scrum when I'm watching. Shame that the team I support (Gloucester)don't have the same sort of dominant pack we had 10-15 years ago.
Best wishes,
Charlie

I have shown pictures of my Technics SP15 before but I hope people do not mind just a few more.
