  1. I love that Vaughan-Williams reinterpretation of Tallis (and the Tallis original). Warren Mitchell said he wanted that on his deathbed - I hope he got his wish. There's a girl in the Sixteen who is the spitting image of someone who used to be in Coronation Street! Here's them doing Palestrina: While we are doing Steven Wilson, this is something I've always liked: (spookily, a seagull 'sang' as the track ended .. outside my window. )
  2. COBOL and PL/1 me, plus a little known thing called EASYTRIEVE. What about you? (One time I could also tell you about JES3, TSO, and stuff like that! All forgotten now.)
  3. λυω λυεις λυει λυειμος λυειτε λυειν (I'm not guaranteeing that - it was a long long time ago!)
  4. Thanks. To be fair to Chris he did look into this for me, and found that if the 'Legend' (or any other status) was changed for me it would change for everyone. I didn't want to be a 'Legend' when far more deserving members like VickySilver, Tom Goodheart, Dave Groom, 49 Threepence, Coinery etc aren't talkative mouthy people like me, and that's the only reason I'd be a Legend!! (It shouldn't be based on number of posts...)
  5. "Clash error"? There'll be a white riot down Hammersmith Palais if that sells, for sure.
  6. An expensive mistake to learn from. We will always give you advice on coins for sale, as you're doing with 1787 silver.
  7. I think @bagerap was referring to the average kind of internet claptrap where people air their prejudices freely left right and centre. It's harder to do that in 'real life' where you have to look people in the eye, and you can hear their tone of voice and see their body language. No opinion is fully and completely informed, but a link to a reasonable website (and I will leap to the defence of Wikipedia here) to back up stated facts, never goes amiss.
  8. My longest career was in computing .. but we're talking IBM mainframes here, not the kind of device everyone carries around now.
  9. I couldn't say (apart from agreeing with the grade). When I was dealing, these could be picked up for £50 or even less. Probably much more now, but I personally wouldn't pay £100 even for an EF example. But that's a personal judgement.
