Quote from: dom on October 23, 2024, 06:29:51 PMListening to the audiobook of Julian Jackson's "A Certain Idea of France"

Julian Jackson's brilliant biography of Charles De Gaulle. Absolutely fascinating!
That is sitting on my shelf waiting to be read. It is a bit daunting at 890 pages.

Just finished 'The First Enigma Codebreaker' about Marian Rejewski, the Polish mathematician who first broke the Nazi Enigma code back in the 1930s and laid the foundations for Alan Turing's work. A good read and you do not need to be a mathematician to read it.

Quote from: Thenop on October 23, 2024, 08:34:19 AMAfter an exchange of e-mails with Music on Vinyl about a replacement of 1 LP from an 8LP Miles Davis boxset I am getting one. It did not start out that way, I was told I was no eligible for one due to not complaiing earlier. I had to file a complaint within 14 days of discovery. Which I did, I opened the box yesterday, I received it in August though but the general terms do not state XX days after purchase or receipt, just 'after discovery'.
Also: a defect is a defect, regardless what time has passed. And that is another article in the terms.
So in the end I am getting what I want, reason to be happy. Although my jaw prevents me form smiling, it hurts like hell!


MOV came through ...a bit too much. They re-send my entire order which included another 5LP Miles Davis Boxset and there was absolutely  nothing wrong with that. So someone clicked a wrong button there. Next to that, it was one problem with one LP out of an 8LP set. So I have effectively received 14 free LPs. Hmmm.
I'll PM you my address  ;D

Marvellous. 8)
Shame you couldn't stay longer. And I never thought I would here a northerner asking for a half pint.  ;D
