Genie Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Just wanted to feed back a great bit of customer service I received. Sunday, me and the OH decided to have a Curry, we ordered it from a place in Fazeley (nr Tamworth) where we usually get them from (about once every 3 weeks I'd say). When I got their at the time to pick it up the guy checked with the kitchen and then said it would be another 5 minutes, he offered me drink from the bar free whilst I waited . I had a cheeky bottle of Cobra to tie me over. Brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethRDR Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Is it strange that as a young adult (18 ) I actually appreciate classical music? No, just as long as your not sat in your pants listening to Mars, The Bringer of War whilst loading a rifle and eyeing a nearby clock-tower with a sense of longing.

theunderstudy Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Oh no, not at all, I reserve such moments for Mercury, the messenger. I mean sure its got a bad rep because killers always seem to listen to classical music whilst they don a pair of leather gloves and strangle someone to death, but surely a good bit of Mendelssohn or Vivaldi of even Rachmaninov relaxes a man of an evening. I made myself sound about 40 there. No I do not have a flannel jacket with leather patches on the elbows, and no I do not sit at home with a glass of Chateauneuf du Pape and a pipe and slippers. Hitz, that was awful! if I had done that we know what reply Gareth would have to the punderstudy's post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted December 9, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted December 9, 2010 Classical music - yes, bigtime Flannel jacket with leather patches on the elbows - no Sit at home with a glass of Chateauneuf du Pape - yes Pipe - no Slippers - yes Looks like I'm not quite, er, forty. When I was 18 I sort of liked some classical stuff. Had a soft spot for Berlioz's Symphony Fantastique, in particular. But didn't really "get it" on a wide scale. That came in my early 30s. Started off getting heavily into baroque (Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, Vivaldi, etc.), then moved forward through Mozart and into the romantic era. Now absolutely love early 20th Century stuff in particular - from Vaughan Williams though Shostakovich to Bartok, Berg, Messaien, Part, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderstudy Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I went to a performance of Shostokavich by the Birmingham Philharmonic a few months ago. My uncle plays in the BPO, so that's a major reason of my love of classical music. I think Mozart and Beethoven were utter genii, Moonlight Sonata is IMO one of the best pieces ever written, and I am proud to say I can play most of it on the piano Chopin, Vaughan-Williams, bach all enjoy a bit of their music.
