Interesting thread, though I've not read the replies...(ys know, can't be arsed and all that)... I've been cheated on and dumped plenty, and kicked into touch a couple of psychopathic nut jobs that seemed great for the first while... Now I have a fabulous friend (fifi from here) who's been on my life for about 8 years, no ties, no promises of love forever, own houses and fredoms... Forever people are a rarity now in a world of disposable everything... Trust no one but yourself, then you won't be disappointed...
I want a distraction for about 20 minutes, between my cup of coffee and the next bit of life to live... Relationships, no, got friends, and that's plenty to be getting along with...
Useful ones I keep and use, useful but not to me, I give to family that can use them, tat I give to charity shops and rubbish (as opposed to tat) goes in the landfill... My dinner service is made up from failed relationships, but the plates are magnificent....
Allan Holdsworth (deceased)... Gong/UK/Solo... Robert Fripp... King Crimson... Steve Hillage... Gong/solo... Todd Rushden... Utopia/solo... Jan Akkerman... Focus... John McLaughlan... Mahavishnu Orchestra... Tosian Abassi... Animals as Leaders... Frank Zappa... Mothers of Invention... Al DiMiola... Return to Forever...
PMJ are fantastic and always worth seeing... My highlight is in February 2020, the musical box are doing 4 dates in Ireland, and since the chance of the original Gabriel era genesis reforming is zero (despite all being alive), TMB is the next best thing (even sanctioned by the members of genesis)... So, I'll have Cork Limerick and Dublin please...
No, there's nothing creditworthy in popular music now, just recycled simple riff pop with a middle eight and a key change... Time to bring back the 70s, the most eclectic decade that ever existed musically...
Oh, I doubt I could tell you anything you can't see for yourself.... That said, this site was a laugh over the years, it's gotten stale over the last couple of months with forced evictions and the emigration of the Irish (who livened it up a bit), I could bark on but to no good end as it changes nothing.... So, on that bombshell, I'm off to find the funny threads or the art threads or the threads about cake....and there i will a happy man be...
From your list, Roger Daltrey and Freddie Mercury.... Away from your list, Ian Gillan (deep purple) and Tom 'the voice' Jones... Honoury mentions to Peter Gabriel (Genesis) and Ian Dury (the Blockheads)...
From your list, Kate Bush and Katherine Jenkins.... Away from your list, Annie Haslem (Renaissance) and Eddie Reader (the eurythmics, difficult bits)... Honoury mention for Clio Lane and Cilla Black from back in the day....
My home for the last 17 years... A different vibe to UK, people are decent here, they still have time for each other, a bit like Britain in the 50s and 60s... Country life takes some getting used to, but the rewards are in it... Plenty of rain whipping in from the Atlantic, but on a good day the coasts are a treat... Irish women are lovely, they're sassy, direct, can do'ers who bring a lot to work and recreation, and as relationship partners, I doubt you'd find better out there if you're a man looking for an equal... All in all, moving out here was the best move I ever made....
John Wetton / King crimson. Asia. UK. Uriah Heep. Family.... James Brown / the godfather of soul... Kieth Emerson / ELP. The Nice. Solo... Kevin Gilbert / Giraffe. Thud...

Ian Dury / Kilburn and the high roads - The Blockheads...
I don't know about your particular request, but I often pull pics from sites, lodge them in my tablets gallery then put them up in other sites... Im really poor at the tech stuff, but that's worked like a charm for me in the last year or so... I don't use a laptop or a phone anymore, just android tablet and mobile phone as a modem... Hope that helps...
60s 'timelord' sci-fi character who could morph into a different body when series execs saw ratings wilting... Kids programme rebooted in the 90s to cash in on the nostalgia brigade...
Ah, thanks for that... A sky man myself, with a pvr hacked up with stuff I've not got around to watching... Much of which I'd have on my tablet if I could, (handy for work nights)... 160 euro TV licence for nothing as I don't watch Irish programming... Young offenders being the exception...
There's more places in Clare that I haven't explored than places that I have, but the Clare coast leading to Galway is pretty amazing, particularly in a place called 'Bell Harbour'...around the back of the church lies a rough old track which I believe is called 'the green road', this runs parallel to the coast road with a 300ft elevation, and you can see salthill on a clear day (with binoculars), now when I say it's a rough road, I'm not kidding, it will see off the suspension of the unwary, so it's a case of one person drives while another looks out the window....(dy'a know what, that could be the cleverest chat up line in CS history, if used a particular way) "hey there, would you like to see my vantage point"....but I digress... Continuing along to the end of this amazing road will take you to bishops quarter, a black sand beach much loved by beach lovers and spaniels... (just saying), and the last place where I actually ran bare foot and beat my athlete daughter in a beach sprint... Further towards kinvarra is traught beach, though I can't remember much about it, other than Brian Ferry has a house there... Then I've completely forgotten to extole the virtues of 'the Burren'.... One of Cromwells generals said of it, "there's not a tree to hang a man, or water to drown a man, nor soil to bury him"... See it in moonlight, its a humbling experience.... For dinner, go to Cassidys pub in Caron, it's the home of cooked goat!... Honestly, I could chunter on here till the batteries run out, moher, liscannor, fanore, lisdoon, ennistymon, (the Ted house, up the road from me) killfenora, lough bunny, the various tower houses, the amazing monks tower at tierneeven (Clare / galway border), Garryland (back of coole park)... Really, there won't be enough hours in the day for the curious traveller....which is why I intend to get out and see Ireland while I still can...
I've been looking for internet security, something to speed-up my lazy old Toshiba laptop... Dropped avg free on it, utter bloody advertising nightmare, slow to the point of dispair, telling me if I wanted a result, I could sign up for a free 60 day trial!....i thought the idea of a free app was for it to be FREE for life (as it used to be) plainly, I was wrong... Similarly, one way offers, three for two, "last few days" of sale (Harvey effin Norman), micro pricing competition, cartels even... Is buying trying?... Have your say, what drives you to dispair, or do you revel in the penny wise bargain hunt...
