Re: The Quackery Thread

Strange coincidence! I'm leaving Fes tomorrow for a long drive over the High Atlas to the beginnings of the Sahara ... there to enjoy the bloody camels and sleeping out under the stars.

Re: Nothing In Particular

Prince William has come out with '... too many people have died in Gaza...' I wonder how many people, in his dim witted naive mind, is the right number to have died ( on both sides). Neither his mum or even Prince Philip would have made such a cbadly worded comment. The media are grumbling but not s...

So Ive got some big bastards of which are just overkill really... but as I say ... coincidence and a happy xhance gift of quite a few 6550s. Gimme el34s or 6L6s anytime. We're talking gui...
