It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
Going to a wedding tonight, second one this year.

Quality... Chance to shag one of the bridesmaids, then
Unless they're all growlers?

I'm going to have a dunk in the sea tomorrow fully kitted out with drysuit, wetsuit boots and float vest getting ready for my dinghy training Monday/Tuesday
I've not been in sea for ages and not sailed for some years now so I'm very rusty
Forecast is sunshine but very cold tomorrow

I'd wait until summer Bev. Much to cold now.
