Yes indeed ,the Belgians have some great special beers , the monarchy ,well lets say they had some less than noble predelictions, nothing unique to Belgium of course as we know well at this stage . Anyway enough of that .
Your own command of the English language for someone who probably (?) isnt a native speaker is beyond most Cyrano,
I neither hand out or take compliments often but thank you .
The irony here just now is its bucketing down with rain and all the rivers and lakes run with muddy waters , the local river was in a dangerously low state and a large scale fish kill was narrowly avoided , the distillery has to have water or production shuts down , its a question I'm definately going to raise when I take the distillery tour .
Did I see a new pop up add here when I came in today ?
I used have an element blocker that took away the anoying popups , that stopped working some time back , even uninstalling the browser and doing a fresh install didnt fix it ,
As Johnny Rotten once said , 'ever get the feeling youre being cheated ' .
Of course theres a think tank/AI borg behind this whole opperation , part man part machine ,its obviously trying to thwart attempts to use ad blockers of various kinds and deliver us content which most of us would rather avoid .
Im not sure if people are refraining from comment as a protest against the fact that its in the wrong section ,
As a compromise how about we have the thread shifted over to Forum Help and Anouncements ;-)
The other thing of course is thinking time to formulate a response might be required , definately hoping to hear back from the long standing members .
Nice One Tim , I hadnt partaken in the free giveaway but great to hear it was a success,
I kinda wanted to mention here about the old fashioned radio component swap meets that go on all over the UK , sadly in my little former outpost they dont exist ,
I wanted to mention Electrojumble.com in this context , a UK based mostly ex gov electronic stockist , a nice man by the name of Roy who I dealt with on several occassions , he had contacts in the electronic swap meet community , there was nothing he couldnt lay his hands on , I know his health took several turns for the worst in recent years , well anyway the site is now closed , We wont presume the worst , but I do hope his collection of stuff wasnt chucked into skips . There must be a few here who had dealings with him over the years , Im sure the original site is way-backed up , he had an astonishing collection of valves .
Over in the trade department Im looking for an Epcos 4u7 400v blue box foil cap ,
A pull from used equipment ,as long as its not mal'funk'ing is 100% fine by me ,
How does 5 Nippon made spanky new 100uf 330v sound by way of trade ?
Preferably EU or UK , but I'm willing to way up postage to the States for viabillity if anyones interested in trades across the water .
I'm starting to like the vibe of our new trade counter already .
'I love it when a plan comes together'
I borrowed that line of course ,much d'offing of hat to Georgey Boy
