Dutton Sale

[Alan Howe]

To be serious for a moment, we must, I think, recognise that not all of this stuff is terribly good. Mind you, I'm glad to have had the chance to find out. Problem is, my shelves are groaning under the weight of CDs I have listened to once only and will probably never listen to again.

Note to self: more discernment needed. It's cheaper!

... erm...Copland? Probably not. Though there's less difficult music in Copland's output than in Maxwell Davies', there would be enough to disqualify him. Inscape, the Piano Variations, the Piano Quartet. Forget about it. And: and: he was a socialist. In those days. Or in these.
Nope. Wouldn't go an inch. Adams? After The Death of Klinghoffer? Probably not, likewise...
Mind, my opinion of today's US political climate is not positive (I'm allowed, I suppose, I live in it.) Anyhow. Sorry. Carry on.

Ditto and also apply same to magazines, books, DVDs, shirts, general detritus of consumerist life ...

... now, when is that package from Dutton due?

The Sands of Time are running out for floorboards everywhere...

Wait, wait, wait; need to buy a bigger screen!

So exactly how do members manage to put up photographs here?

I know that I am remarkably stupid in this sort of area

You have to publish the picture somewhere. Get yourself an account at photobucket.com (eg), free, and upload the picture from your computer to your photobucket account. Once that's done the picture will be on the net and have an URL-adress displayed on photobucket.

Clich the image icon in the posting page, and insert the image adress.

I listen to everything three times before I put them onto the shelf in the 'proper' place, then I use random.org to choose what to listen to. Makes trying to decide and potentially getting use out of everything a LOT easier.

[Mark Thomas]

That is so organised!

[Dundonnell]

Photos taken two years ago.......collection is now onto another wall of my sitting room too

Welcome to UC's answer to Through the Keyhole ...


I say, old chap, you've got a rather nicely-turned barley-twist leg!

[Dundonnell]

Sorry for extreme size!!

I have never done this before and am just learning how to go about it

[albion]

It's really quite a dainty leg, to my practised eye.
