E_R - I want to replace my Studio Projects C1 with a Rode NT2 because the capsule is fubarred. Am I right or should I stick to the glorious PRC wonder cardiod that is the C1?

 

*By 'surreal' I mean 'bollocks'.

Bollocks is right. I haven't a fucking clue what you're talking about :D

Face facts, you're 19 and there is really no way you're going to find true love at that age. It doesn't happen. The best thing you can do is find a nice young sophisticate who is willing to drop 'em for a bottle of blue WKD. It certainly beats painting a map of Africa on the inside of you Postman Pat quilt cover every night. Also you need to remember that when/if you do find your true love and soulmate you'll be safe in the knowledge that you can pack a whack and you're not going to blow a load in your beige Y fronts the moment she asks you in for a coffee.

 

Oh, I dunno. Friends of my parents, in their late fifties, have been together since their early teens... and blue WKD? Please! Some decent whisky, at least... The Ancient Macallan. Or something whisky-based of the brose variety. Or Drambuie. Or, for that matter, some decent brandy... Carlos Primero being the best.

 

Nah, might be to your tastes but it's not my idea of fun. While I don't agree and obey blindly, I was raised Roman Catholic and there are still some essential tenets I want to stick to, chief among which is not indulging in gratuitous fornication =P

YES!

 

The feeling is mutual my dear.

 

Fuck it. I'll buy a Telefunken U47 instead, and perhaps I'll wear my Ekco AD76 as a hat to the Goodwood Revival.

 

Wibble.

Watanabe, sad news but Radweld no longer mentions Rover 827's on the bottle. A grim day for shiteists :cry:

Possibly because there are none left? It's been - literally - several years since I last saw one...

I've driven one. In my mind. Through Lacan's mirror.

 

You are the jettisoned object.

 

Kristeva is not as fit as previously indicated.

Telefunken U-47s rocketh mightily. Expensive, but bloody good.

 

Personally, I'd be going for the Neumann U-87. I like Neumann stuff. Got to use the right pre-amp though.

I did think that adherance to organised religion may be the case for your lack of houghmagandy. Still, it doesn't stop the Irish getting their Nat King, but are you worried about what will be said about the class of young lady? Don't be, get stuck in there - it really does help in severe cases of teenage sublimation.

I'm not one to knock your effort here Richard, in fact I defended you (sort of) but Your a virgin aren't you? Nothing personal like.

 

Aye, and not ashamed of it. Vaguely frustrated, OK, but, call me foolish if you will, I don't much like the idea of sex without love, so, until I'm in a stable, loving, long-term relationship, it ain't happening (so I'm probably doomed to perpetual batchelorhood). I have, though, actually turned down a few offers (said girls struck me as slightly desperate).

 

 

Quelle surprise?

 

Fucking good luck with the 'no shagging until you're in a loving relationship' bit there Eraymanboy. If you encounter any of these birds again that made you an offer send 'em my way please. You can sit at home listening to Cliff Richard EPs and I'll be in your garage indulging in some horizontal jogging. Just leave the gaffa tape on the work bench and don't worry about the stains on your 'Which' magazines.

K Seal or Radweld?

 

for me, K-seal - nothing like shiny bits of copper floating in the header tank!

Back on topic: who suggested keeping the bloody Marina? Dreadful handling, wheelarches that REALLY intruded on the rear seat space (if they'd given the car a rear track wide enough to suit the rest of the body, it needn't have been anything like as much of a problem), thirsty, unsophisticated... the Triumph Dolomite did everything it did so much better. Morris deserved to die.

 

Struggling to keep up with the shite content but here is some firsthand feedback from somebody who was alive early 70's and has firsthand experience of the Marina. It was also the first car I crashed in the early 80's and they are pretty strong I would add.

 

They honestly were not as bad as we would like to think - perfect shite I would say. There was certainly a lot more room inside a Marina than a dolly. pop looked at a dolly before he bought the 2nd Marina and loaded me and my sibs into the back, a bit squashed. The dolly was more expensive and thirsty too. Dolly was better built and didn't understeer quite as dramatically but it didn't fit our family of five. I had a triumph 1500TC later on and they were solid, I'd have another one of those.

 

Re "Dreadful handling," was that picked up from contemporary road tests. hmmmm thought so, ever driven one? Hmmm thought so. I expect that all Capris fly off the road backwards and 911's spin so violently when even thinking of a roundabout that they will put you back in time.

 

Morris deserved to die? Not so sure mon brave. I think BMW were so afraid of the Morris brand that they held onto the name after they asset stripped Rover and tried to drag the carcase through a puddle with an X5 but failed. Maybe we will see a Morris branded version of the 1 series called the wanker

Defending Marinas , they are fairly bomb proof ,The donkey in mine ( 1.3 ) put up with shit loads of abuse , handling is crap though , least it was on mine , id have another though

Marina's are amazingly strong, the owner of this walked out unharmed with only a small scuff to his cravat and winklepickers.

It's got fuck all to do with religion. I don't "adhere" to it anyway. I just want to wait until I've met the right girl. Now, get your oversized and unwelcome nose out of someone else's private affairs.

No, just word of mouth stuff I'd heard long before Top Gear impinged on my consciousness. Now, of course not all Capris fly off the road backwards (my dad had a Mk2 1.6 in lurid orange back in the 80s and he said it was basically understeery, and not terribly stable in motorway head/crosswinds). Nor, of course, do all 911s spin - Porsche sorted the handling long ago. Today's 911 is a superb car - benign handling and incredible traction.

That is in extremely bad taste... but I can't help laughing! At least it reinforces the fact that the paedo-priest is still very much a minority, albeit worringly large... :roll:
