Gentlemen.

Amazon Music has just suggested that I may like to listen to "The best of James Last".

I feel that I have sunk to an all time low. 

If you want me, I shall be in the library contemplating a Webley.

In what way would the BEST of James Last differ from 4′33″ except, perhaps, in length?

A Browning would be better

Nobby,....My very good chum.

Amazon have definitely gone 'boobs up'.

In the very early days of buying 'stuff' through them....I thought, "How the blank could they know I might like that " ?....But, they were usually correct...But I'd already got what they were suggesting.

NOW....if I link to (what is now, the Evil Empire, as opposed to GW)....They're suggesting things completely randomly....Not the slightest clue how their algorithms say I might like 'whatever'.

I may to have order some head (sweatbands) form them, soon (Von wants those.)...I dread to think what that might link to.

Great album! Good choice Phil!

May I also suggest their Empire album for some serious glam rock

. . . serious glam rock

Er, what? That's an oxymoron if ever I've heard one.

If a 10+ round mag capacity would be a bonus, I seriously wouldn't Bother!  

Some of the 'ads' that pop up on Facebook ARE rather worrying!
'Self defence' wands/batons that will smash a Breezeblock.
Laser pens that will burst a a water filled bag.
Torches that can light up buildings at half a mile.
'Scopes' ... so useful for watching bathers.
Throwing Axes for garden games.
Yes, I DID buy a 'Viking' knife for chopping bacon... but, yep, it would make a pretty good throwing knife.
Sometimes, you wonder...

fsn: when you've finished with the Webley, could you please send it on?

Empire ?......Glam rock ? 
Three excellent tracks on that, Matt.....but not what I'd remotely call glam rock.  
Yes.....I already own 'Empire'.

Sweet were 'glam'........Nothing wrong with 'Blockbuster ' .......Same riff as that nice Mr Bowie's 'Jean Genie '......Same chords, as well.

Got one of those laser pens, as well, Ian.....Though it's (ahem) 'frigged' now....I left the battery in too long...and it leaked.
Very impressive, switching it on, when we had low flying cloud/fog......You could see the beam for (genuinely) hundreds of yards.....And NO....I never pointed it upwards towards planes or helicopters.

I bought that to try and scare the pigeons, in the barn, away.....without giving them lead poisoning in the head.....It did work (then)!.....I'm going to have to go back to using lead, to make them disappear.....Wretched things.

Cheers - Phil.

Phill... 'ahem'... Keith, actually but no worries!  The Throwing Axes 'might' have been an option... would have given 'vent'! But, sharp edges... maybe not!

4'33" is not an earworm.

Forewarned is forearmed. I think I'd prefer James Last.

I double dare you.

I did. It is stuck in my head.


It's like that mental image you had when you walked in on your parents.
