  1. There's been rumblings about Cliff for years. Working on Big Brother overnight 8 or so years ago, we overheard a conversation between two senior TV producers who had no idea we were in earshot. It was a doozy of a story about Cliff and another TV personality. I think in some circles it's quite well known. The underage thing is a surprise though.
  2. I don't bother with posh headphones for portable devices, they just bust whatever. Keep a decent set in the lounge though. From a purely Hi Fi reproduction standpoint, the Sennheiser HD600 phones at a shade over £200 have about the flattest frequency response you'll see anywhere. That includes super silly expensive high end Hi Fi stuff. They look a bit crap, but they're not a fashion accessory.
  3. I think sometimes they grin and bare a couple of hours in the knowledge that their partners will accompany them home at the end of the evening. The alternative can be messy. Do go on...
  4. Her friends are mostly quite, for want of a better word, square. My phone and internet traffic is much more interesting than hers. When she works the weekends, I'll head out, and more often that not, wake up Sunday on a sofa or in a bed miles from home with female company. Most of her mates would go schiz if their boyfriends/husbands did that. So yeah, I don't mind if she occasionally looks through my phone or Facebook. I don't play away, our relationship works - as much as they ever do We don't do joint bank accounts btw.
  5. Don't think she'd be that bothered, how could she be? It's not all the time either, it's an occasional thing.
  6. It isn't me - I don't particularly believe in marriage. People change over time, and I've seen plenty of 'rock solid' marriages dissolve into chaos, or just rumble on with both parties miserable. We've been together 9 years, and I do share a bed with the girls I'm stopping with, and they're not unattractive. So I'm quite happy for her to go through my messages, better that than be told she's uncomfortable with me staying with friends. I am pug ugly though
  7. I don't, and I'm not talking about Facebook, corporate or government agencies. My girlfriend goes through my phone and messages, whether I'm there or not. It doesn't bother me. I suppose she does it for peace of mind. Some of my best friends are girls and I'll often stay with them over weekends when she's working. She might be stepping up surveillance though. The GFs best friend has just rumbled her cheating husband, barely 15 months after getting married. Suspicion was aroused by him suddenly not leaving his phone about. When he finally did, during a trip to the bog, she investigated and the lies unraveled. So, do your other halves investigate what you're up to? Are they open about it, or do you just suspect that they do?
  8. Nice guy too. I've got mates into Rockabilly, his Cochran tribute stuff live is meant to be amazing.
  9. Have you seen Darrel Higham, Seat?
  10. oops, quoted instead of edited...
  11. ATP's Jabberwocky Festival, supposedly happening this weekend, was cancelled a couple of days ago through lack of ticket sales. However many of the acts were already around, and have found themselves looking for alternative venues this weekend. This Facebook page shows who's secured what gigs, and where. There's a few freebies in there too. Confirmed gigs.

    Got four manbags. Prefer not to take plastic carrier bags from shops.
  16. An albatross keeper will have problems getting life insurance, though an elephant keeper charging an attacker down would defo be worth a watch. What's the score with the elephant trunk? Head or arm?
  17. This graph attempts to equate an attempted poke in the chest to an actual smack on the head with a lump hammer.
  18. To show the City Of London Police how it's done?
  19. Meh, ditch 'em , over rated. Concentrate on blistering guitar solos instead
  20. Daughters Of Albion - 'Daughters Of Albion' Bit of Psych, bit of Sunshine, bit of Folk, produced by Leon Russell.
