Coo! [There's a word I've never used before] 55 points! :mad:

I wonder if there will ever be official "rules" on this - how many points do you get for one unit of rep? I'd like to think it's quite random. I'm finding it quite hard to decide whether to use thumbs or rep now. It's beginning to resemble a sinister social experiment.

:down:

I've got 10. My reputation clearly does not precede me.

We'll have gains from player sales (although this is clearly an irregular and unpredictable credit to our income statement).

I'm in. So far, I've done CDs for Frutos and James and the Giant Head.

I'll remember that. I like "guessing" who did what CD - people often give clues. I'm keeping mine close to my chest, but I would like to request that we rotate the recipients so that everyone does a CD for someone new each time.

A bunch of 7/10s: Allo Darlin - We Come From The Same Place: pleasant, heartfelt twee indiepop, a little earnest at times. Bright Eyes is a charming standout. Engineers - Always Returning: pretty much Engineers by numbers, but, if you like them, that's a good thing. The usual gauzy glaze of...

I have AML "modules" that also take too long, and various other mandatory online things, usually to do with compliance. Really dull, with an easy test at the end.

Re Carlill changing your life: maybe not, as you would think that, generally speaking, false advertising would have been outlawed at some point anyway, but it set the (smoke) ball rolling. As Buzzer says somewhere above, the case law can be fascinating, but other requirements of company law are...

OK - yeah, I agree. Don't tell Flex Your Head though - that's his life.......

Ok Worthingite - just for you! Edited from Wikipedia: On the evening of Sunday 26 August 1928, during the Glasgow Trades Holiday, May Donoghue, a Glasweigan divorcee in her thirties, took a train to Paisley, Renfrewshire, located seven miles west of Glasgow, where she went to the Wellmeadow...

Sounds like a missed opportunity. It's a great case. Stevenson sadly died in a lunatic asylum.

Did I get a thumbs down for misspelling Stevenson, or for giving a massive shout-out to the cases that established English tort law and contract law respectively? I defy anybody not to enjoy the former - involves an Italian ice cream parlour, a snail and a bottle of ginger beer.

Can't agree with this. Donoghue v Stephenson? Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Company? Love these guys.......

Please think of the children - and I'm pretty sure Beth would encourage you to find some common ground (Jenny Lewis?) before calling in the lawyers. They need some exposure on the soundtrack of a surprise indie flick hit set amongst young Americans having some teething problems in their...

Vocals can ruin things quite easily (as per my previous post which really I should have incorporated within this post). I don't mind his voice, but it does tire me after a while. Luckily, the first track is the standout.

I like this, my wife does not. Something to do with the vocals. In the same way, my wife complains if I play Broadcast. Some types of female vocal make her quite angry.

I dislike people who get on and block the aisle for ages and stop other people getting seats because they can't get past. These people are normally men and, whilst they fanny around for an aeon folding their coats, withdrawing items from bags and then carefully placing their bags in the racks...
