My M1 / M6 route to Manchester is plagued by lane closures and roadworks ... Same story year after year, progress comes at a glacial pace.

It's contemporary jazz Martin, so might not be your thing. I'm enjoying this album, thanks Tim ...

I got the email telling me my sub is going up to 19.99 a month. Boo hiss. I can't see the added value to justify this.

Yup my taste is pretty eclectic my 3 children introduced me to Guns "n" Roses & deadmau5 & others. MartinT recently introduced me to FEIST & her album Metals happy to listen if I wrote about my choices would others be interested. Yes of course happy to hear more! I have a similarly eclectic taste - I like to say everything from Scriabin to Slayer ...

Ok chaps understood. I have to sort out other elements of my system before fully getting online again then can look at a Quobuz trial if it can work for the rest of the family.

Sorry to ask after all the time I have been here but why use Bubble player ? Is that the recommended controller for Rendu items ? I used the software on a phone many years ago but did not find it to be any advantage either sound quality wise or function over Logitech Media Server using Material Skin GUI. Spotify connect works with Rendu but is not high enough quality to satisfy. I know everyone is really down on Spotify here but for the most part I have had very satisfying results with my Rendu. Never tried Quobuz.

The Evija looks awesome - it's a kind of mix between 70's and contemporary styling. Love all the design details.

What a find Nospun are! Incredibly talented, serious musicians, especially the lead guitar. Just one highlight is his playing on 'And then there is one'. I love the complexity and depth of structure of the songs; it's the best prog metal have heard in a while ... Would be amazing to see them live.

This has brought back memories. I learnt to drive when my parents had a Talbot Solara. It was easily the best car we had up till then and I liked to drive it. Somehow I managed to get it written off with a very minor bumper shunt at slow speed - always felt so guilty about it but my parents were very good about it ...

I remember my family had two different Marinas!
We had the 4 door and the coupe - what an incredible sports car that was ... Lol.
I loved them but didn't have to drive them of course.

My second viewing of Dune 2 reminded me how much I missed first time round when I was too tired, so very satisfying from that point of view. Disappointed with the screen quality though - it felt a bit lacking in rez and colours more muted than they should be. Wish I had seen it on the IMAX screen!
