After a prolonged absence from urg due to health problems,
I've just nipped back in to announce that the urg web ring has a new
member. Martin and Anna Sykes have created a site that provides a tour
of their new garden in Cheshire. You can have a snoop around their
patch by accessing.....

http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~sykesm/garden.html


For those of you who don't know about it, the urg webring
specifically links web-sites of gardens belonging to some of the urg
subscribers.

The urg web-ring is designed to provide a simple and
user-friendly way for urglers to look at each others' gardens via the
web. All the sites in the ring are linked, so that a new garden is
only ever a couple of clicks away.

Free membership is open to any urgler with a suitable 'My
Garden' type website. No commercial sites are admitted to the webring,
so every site is a glimpse of a private garden belonging to someone
who contributes to this newsgroup, and no-one tries to flog you
something you neither want nor need. :~)

The urg web-ring home page, with the web-ring application form
and fuller details can be found at...

Nice to see you again Cormaic. I hope things are better now.

Unfortunately i don't think my site will qualify, as it is primarily
aimed at selling hi-fi, though I could hive some sub-directories off.

Good for a laugh........

I have got something like that in the loft.

Gosh a museum :-)

In the days of CDs and DVDs do people still buy them?

I'm glad I didn't find it immediately, I enjoyed reading the rest of
your ramblings :-)

There's more, but you have to *REALLY* look hard.

Yes, people do still buy them, and even these days good vinyl pressings
still beat CDs to a frazzle. While I have a high-end CD player (Shan
Ling) and have tried others, good clean vinyl played on a decent
turntable with a good arm and pickup still has greater acoustic range
and richness.

Mind you, the arm and pickup I use costs the best part of one and a half
kilopounds, so it damn-well ought to!

Have a goggle at Diverse Vinyl, www.diverse-music.co.uk

I can't comment on DVDs as I haven't got a DVD player.

once one is over 50 one's hearing can't tell the difference between a
wax cylinder recording, a cuckoo clock and a DVD.

Vinyl is still the choice medium of DJ`s. You gotta get the kit from
somewhere, might as well be Jacque the hat. 8-)

You speak for yourself! I can still hear all the test tones on a test
LP, some of which some youngsters I know can't hear. Mind you, they
always listen to their mus^^^^noise too on too high a volume.

I'm liable to be getting one for the box so's I can run Visual
Basic.NET, but I have no plans for an audio one. I don't even use the
ones in my boxen for listening. No room for the speakers....

Not Jaques the Hat Digestive?

Way back in the early 'sixties I lived in a Scout Hostel in Stepney Green.

On my way back from troop meetings (One of the conditions of living
there was to help with a local troop) I would drop in on the Hayfield
and have a jar and a mardle.

After one of the regulars had left, the landlord asked me: "You know
Jack, then?"

"Jack?"

"The gee^^gentleman you were drinking with. That's Jack the Hat, you know."

Well, I hadn't known, but I was glad I'd bought him a drink a time or two....
