Well if it makes you feel any better I bring mine stepping of a kerb and onto a shore, so you know yourself. Always the simple things.

Surely one of your adoring family will carry you up the stairs daily so you can sit between the speakers.

It would take more than one and I doubt if 3 adore me

Go with the autographs if they still use plaster of paris and get an old wire coat hanger ready for the itching :-)

Sorry to hear that Ivor that sounds nasty. Laura works in St Vincent's occasionally for cover. I will get her to keep an eye out for a Victor Meldrew type with a full head of hair :) Wish you a speedy recovery. Let me know if you need any refreshments or hifi cables to be dropped into the ward. Will they let you bring in the Airtight for a bit of company? Just as well you have a nice convenient dac for listening sessions, only finger movement required.

Sorry to read of your mishap Ivor, get well soon.
It's OK, if there is no bread I will eat cake.

Beware of a thin chef!

I'm afraid I'll be confined to the downstairs where there is sitting, improv sleeping, a toilet and cooking facilties. A patio if we get sunshine!

Enjoy your finger movement: :)

On the video posted by Dave, incredible work and well worth the money, almost tempting me over to the dark side!
