I feel the need to bring things down a little after all of that heavy stuff.   

Here's Indagroove with their version of a classic :

I never outgrew metal as my parents promised/wished.

Nope, it's a    from me.

Bloody Vikings  

Well, here's a new one.

I've had a couple of these now, and of course, they are designed to put the wind up you.



No, I did not 'click here'! The give-away is that they come from what appears to be a private email address, not Microsoft themselves. And why would they suspend your email when you can just say push off, other email sites are available? Makes no business sense. It's just a pity that there will be people who do believe it is genuine and find themselves hacked. You can never be too careful.

It was offline around midday for an hour or so, but all good now.

No probs here in Sydney

I have had intermittent drop outs all day here, some for two hours at a time. Any other members experiencing the same?

I'm completely out of the loop and haven't purchased oversees in years.

I put something in the shopping cart at Rails of Sheffield but saw no mention of tariffs.

Is it happening on my side of the pond? Will I get a notice from the post office that I owe?

I have a Broadway Limited Paragon 2 and a Graham Farish BR Blue Class 40 sound.

I've been enjoying that Class 40 immensely,  but I want more. My layout is DC, so I'm wondering if that MRC Tech 6 is compatible with British N Gauge?

I'm not going to fully DCC my layout, but am curious and interested in this controller if it will work with both American and British N Scale sound locos.

I may have taken a dive I can't take back: sound is awesome! I'd rather have 3,4,5 with sound than 15, 20 without.

I have only recently been listening to Tool...

I like some Tool. Aenima is one of my favorite songs ever, especially when the lyrics are considered.

I'm a huge fan of:

European Power Metal (Blind Guardian, Hammerfall)
Thrash (Classic Metallica, Tourniquet)
American Power Metal (Iced Earth, Jag Panzer)
Trad  Metal (Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Dio)
Death Metal (Bolt Thrower, Early Mortification)
Atmospheric Black Metal (Antestor, Cân Bardd)
Melodic Metal (Tyketto, Ten, House of Lords)
Shred/Speed (Impellitteri)
Hair/"LA" Metal (Stryper, Motley Crue)

Others.

If it's fast and/or heavy and/or melodic... I'm down.

Of course, that includes Vivaldi.
