      I know what you mean, I used to have having the light cheapo blue ones (when I was a nipper) with the stiff black cables, made it a bloody pain to keep in the stand. I used to harvest electronic components by going round the back of the local electricals store where they had the knackered returned appliances, removing what I could with my little tool kit, taking it all home in my backpack and getting to work on them… I’d melt the solder on a pin and pull the component through, sometimes with bare fingers. Lots of burns but well worth it!

      Those were the days…

          Boozeyreg, coke crossed my mind too. I personally cant see what anyone enjoys about it, especially considering the price of the stuff, having tried it a few times. Maybe I’m just too much of a schmoker.

          I imagine tiredness and irritability, in combination with booze and the anger that General Lighting pointed out, also played their part at nearly 4am. I havent been to a club in years except a trip to MoS, which was cack, so I don’t really have a feel for what its like nowadays.

          We need the free party scene more than ever…

              “The Evening Star understands that the incident was not alcohol-fuelled.”

                      I know my taste is pretty dark and hard, but I never could find stuff that was really to my taste… Then I was taken to a squat rave! :weee:

                      I’m growing old but i’ll never be growing up. To me “growing up” has overtones of conformity to “society”, and it seems TEK Tonic and others here have been fortunate enough not to suffer from that affliction! I’m maturing: becoming a better, wiser and more refined human being. “They” are well aware that sort of human causes peace, democracy and happy coherent societies.

                      Raves and sensible informed drug use are helping me mature and understand myself better, though of course they are only part of the process. Isn’t it funny how the only legal drugs are the ones that are most taxable and do nothing for us? (as Bill Hicks pointed out)

                          I went once years ago, me big sis took me. I think I might have to give it a go this year if I’m still capable by Monday…

                          My lasting memory is of being bolted into one of those free-spinning gyroscope thingys that NASA stick astronauts in. Was a right laugh! :crazy_diz
