Boy, has time flown! When I joined the old forum in February 2011 I was 17, going on 18. I was in my last year of secondary school and only months away from university.
Happy belated birthday NoSonOfVine.....Yes time flies when your having fun

Are We There Yet....2021....From New Zealand.
Crossover/Symphonic.
This album is really good. Hard to compare this band to others, so their style is quite instinct of the 70s-80s era style of music.

These past few weeks we've had rain, sun and strong winds knocking branches off trees. Not bad for the summer.
Ontario is still in major lockdown and if you fancy a pint, you need to sit out on the patio and put up with the climate.

Just finished watching the Jeremy Clarkson's season the Clarkson's Farm season 1. Very funny and amusing with real characters. This is nothing like Top Gear but has the usual Jeremy's wit. Worth watching. This is definitely a real documentary of owning a farm and the struggles farmers face in UK are leaving the EU.

Display MoreI used to frequent the Flat Earth Society online and actually signed up to their forum so I could interact with them. Their theories were so ridiculously far fetched I found the whole thing hysterical, and best of all was their ability to repel *any* attempt at logic.
I think their explanation for gravity is that the flat earth disc is moving upwards at 9.8m/s. The sun is a spotlight of some sort located 50 or so miles up. And on and on.
I actually argued things from the flat earther perspective for amusement until they realized what I was doing and kicked me off. If memory serves in one exchange, I argued that the moon was a projection from an enormously powerful projector. A normal person asked me "why don't we see shadows from birds and things flying in front of it?". I replied, duh, the projector is so powerful any creature that flies in front of it would be instantly incinerated. I asked for proof that birds were not being incinerated, and when none was forthcoming claimed it as "a big win for FE". This is actually their MO. Claim lack of evidence contrary to some outlandish claim as victory.
Oh, their maps are hilarious too, with the deformed continents and massive ice wall all around.
Not sure if this is TV?...But I would find this amusing to read people's verdicts of the flat earth.

But they do. I just bought a new iPod touch with twice the space I used to have.
How much hard drive?

Southgate's tactics were off. He kept two talented young players on the bench until late on, then pitched them into penalties 10 minutes later when barely warmed up. It was never going to end well.
The players are currently being bombarded with repulsive racist abuse online. With that and as you say the violence, yet again way too many England fans putting their country to shame.
Sad to see England lose like this
... We need to get a major Championship under our belt. 1966 is too long for younger fans of this sport to enjoy. Come on the World Cup and win the title.

Thanks, but these are old interviews, not from 2021. Great to hear them again anyway.
Someone posted the first video quite recently on YouTube under my subscription likes. So thought I might share a few more videos as well.

Iphones are basically the same thing.
But not the storage capacity unless you want to pay a fortune to pay for a bigger hard drive.

Display MoreMostly CDs at home, with some vinyl. I have a large cassette collection, but worry they will disintegrate when I next play them as they are all at least 30 years old.
For travelling, whenever that happens again, we bring along my very old 160G iPod which has pretty much our entire CD collection loaded on it.
At work, it is mainly YouTube.
In the car, it is mainly the radio although I actually have a CD player in the car which we use for shorter trips.
Shame they don't make iPods anymore.

Went through a phase of buying too many CD's. For convenience of playing them I would transfer them to mp3 and place them on a separate hard drive. While I live in Canada and love progressive music, most bands I love originate from Europe or UK. Buying CD's made this very hard indeed with the cost of postage and shipping, these charges would always double the cost of the CD. Most CD stores in Ontario have closed down now, so buying cd's unless from Amazon cost a fortune to buy.
Nowadays bands offer digital downloads costing between £5 - £10 depending on that album. It's instant and very easy. Now my music is contained on 2 separate 4TB hard drives as a back up.
Most of the digital music can be transferred to various music platforms to listen to very easily.

Did you get this one too or found it on YouTube?
There is a Live in Rio DVD and CD out there but they are much better in the studio.
I love this Marillion clone
I got all their albums now, I really like this band. I first heard it on YouTube to see if I would like it and I did. Thanks for the recommendation since you posted this first.

Second Home By The Sea
That's
If fairness, I like this whole album, played this album 3 times now last night
, Probably their best album after they left the proggier roots. Phil Collins was at his peak exploring different drumming styles.
