Re: Interesting findings on the internet
Yes, and you and I are both proof that this is a winning mate-acquisition strategy. :lol: Acquiescing to the female being the key to "success". I wondered a bit on the first occasion, but went with the flow. Decisive, you see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC10VWDTzmU Hey.... you gotta ...

Re: Interesting findings on the internet
As for Arthur Dent's inability to hold a love interest... no, you are absolutely wrong there; it was literally the entire focus of later books in the series. Indeed it was, but Arthur floundered everywhere in his relationship with Fenchurch and never really knew what was going on. I suspect I may h...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
Amazingly Americans still use top loading washing machines. We have a high efficency washer and seperate heat pump drier (super efficent) both front loading. I use a toploader because it is Kenmore/Whirlpool made back when they were bulletproof and the only thing that killed them was decades of rus...

Re: Interesting findings on the internet
I bought the radio series on six CDs on the same day I bought my first CD player. The original radio series was by far the best and the television version was a severe disappointment for the reasons you mentioned. I didn't like the TV Marvin either. No idea what Marvin should have looked like, but ...

Re: Post a picture of a cat
I didn't step through it, but if it's real, then that cat moved pretty quickly. Mind you, they do. As for the "Blue Peter" clip, thank you for finding that. Presenters were made of sterner stuff than they are today. All hail Valerie Singleton! And as for John Noakes climbing Nelson's Colu...

Re: Post a picture of a cat
On the subject of cats (albeit large ones), I had breakfast at "The Shack" https://www.communityad.co.uk/exclusives/100-years-shack-cafe-hook/ on Saturday. There was a poster above our table telling of a little history. Apparently, the owners of The Shack also ran a fairground where one o...

Re: Vintage Radio & Communications Museum of CT Swap Meet, Sept 6
I actually considered several times aboot asking how much on the jukebox... then I decided I'd better not; "I might just have enough..." :? Probably at least $3,000. Also they are quite big. The big Wurlitzer ones with bubbles go for a lot more. Pinball machines are another thing like tha...

That lot should see you through the winter :) You are probably safe from those RF amplifiers, given the indicated voltages! I used to want a Markus, and now they are a blast from the past[1].

Re: Vintage Radio & Communications Museum of CT Swap Meet, Sept 6
It looks like an excellent swapmeet. Possibly a bit heavy on domestic electronics and light on TE and military gear. I have a friend who has a jukebox like that. It was downstairs in the kitchen and he wanted it moved upstairs into the living room. We had to remove the autochanger mechanism to save...

I wibbled very hard over the Freed-Eisenman Neutrodyne Receiver (6th pic); the guy had it priced obviously just high enough to make sure it went to a "collector", not a junk scavenger who'd just rip it apart. Something aboot the craftsmanship in every aspect of the thing just pushed all th...
