Rumour has it a dab hand with a cotton reel and elastic band also.

I remember The Elastic Band...

Pah. Expert? I'll have you know I've got a Blue Peter badge and one from the scouts for tying knots.

Pah to you too ! Your gonna tell me you have a bendy bully too next lol.

Seriously tho, people who criticise or slate something they don’t understand is typical.

Some who shall remain nameless (@Maverick) said you bought Rab's Pioneer . " It will be alright as long as he hasn't modded it "

I assume you mean PCP??

If you have spent the last 30 years in automotive finance like I have, I’d listen to you. Obviously you haven’t and clueless.

You don’t earn these for nothing ok!

Maybe that’s how you earn your living, off the misery of others tied into your loan agreements….like I said, crack on, but you won’t get a penny of mine,

We all like a bit of fun here, but this is getting very close to crossing the line of acceptable behaviour. I suggest you back off a touch.

I didn’t call anyone clueless my friend, and I stated quite clearly that it was in my opinion…..wow, this is extraordinary I was defending hifi owners….

I monitor all financial interests which is governed by the FCA. You haven’t a clue. I earn my living by adhering to the law.

I’d suggest you stop derailing the otherwise, entertaining thread!

OK. First, I am not your friend. I have never met you, and whilst I exchange plenty of banter with people I know personally here, I am still a moderator on this forum.

Defending hifi owners has nothing to do with accusing somebody of 'living off the misery of others'. Being called clueless in that regard is also pushing it, so once again, I suggest some winding it in is appropriate all round.

Sorry for calling you my friend, I won’t do that again.

I’m in my 47th year of manufacturing coatings , specifically matching colours by eye . Even though there are devices and self learning systems to match colour my customers still want the one person who says that’s spot on .. we are one of only a handful of companies who still do it the “ old fashioned “ way ..
I’m one of only a very few people who now have that skill . Within 10 years I reckon that ability will be gone as no one is being trained to do it anymore .because of technology..
But even after 47 years I’m still learning..
Perfection in all things can never be reached .
We only better ourselves by learning what is possible through mistakes

I know the real experts, they can read t'internet and then, wait for it, they can misquote it on a forum. There you go, beat that then.......Ha!

Want proof...well search for Hifi Wigwam, all the proof you need.

 

[Tony_J]

So true George...

I have spent a large proportion of my money on hifi over the years and it is higher on my priority list of how to spend my disposable income than some of my friends consider reasonable. I never thought any of the items I bought were overpriced even when I was disappointed by the product purchased and just put it down as a learning experience. I cannot put a price on the hours of pleasure that listening to music on my constantly changing system over many years has given me and to my friends that prefer to relax knowing that there is a new car outside on their driveway or however they choose to spend their money I say, that's great, my money my choice, your money your choice.
