where we used to live. I've not done this since late 1999 and the
reasons are lack of appropriate venue and time at the moment.
The music I listen to is not the music I play - strange that really
- but life's like that. My interests are Within Temptation, Delain, Doro,
Vandroya, Leaves Eyes, Elis, Xandria, The Gathering etc.. these days with nearly
1500 tracks on my Sansa Clip MP3 player, but
still listen to Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Goldfrapp, Alice Cooper, Heart and, of course
listening to Arrow Rock Nord and Russian Radio Caprice on the Firestick rather than the
crappy UK Radio Stations that have such a very restricted playlist
that you never hear anything different. I used to listen to Radio Caroline
which now has an internet presence bu they have become as stuck in their ways
as the institutions they rebelled against in the sixties, seventies and early
eighties. I sent them a note on their Facebook page re 'why don't you play...'
and got the monosyllabic and arrogant response 'who?' (see link to their site below).
Despite being a fan for many decades, that did it for me. Not impressed with what they
have become - which is their own tunnel-visioned elite institution of the 'old
boys network'!

I have been a licensed radio amateur with the callsign G4GKH since
1977 and GM4GKH since moving to Scotland lock, stock and barrel in 2007. vSee my
amateur radio page

I have owned several VW Sciroccos and a 5 Cylinder VW Santana (Audi 90
Engine) all the way up to 250,000 miles on the clock! I am sure that this
trouble-free milage was attributable to early Slick 50 treatment and
servicing by me with Mobil One being the number one choice for the regular oil changes. Currently
I am driving my second Audi A4. The first one was a stand 1.8 but the current
one is my first excursion into the world of diesel. This V6 2.5 Litre 180 bhp (++) Quattro
Sport is the fastest most torquy vehicle I have ever had - I love it!

Perverse
(Well, not really but it continues the word pun!)
I like a damn good laugh and you will find some excellent links to
some very funny sites in the Joke Files link below.
Much Worse (sic!)
I have done all sorts with various types of computer, I even built a Nascom once!
But I had the urge to produce a set of web pages. I did not use any fancy tools
to create this site - just Notepad and a bit of fast learning about
HTML code
.
With a few borrowed bits and pieces from elsewhere I discovered just how easy it was.
Subsequent to one of the rare updates, thanks to Karla Whitlow, I can offer you this link

I haven't picked up the guitar
for a little while and this is why! Having discovered that people actually read this content,
I add this very useful educational resource. Thanks to Keri Evans for this:
