Why is China getting away with, err, murder with regard to the Global Pandemic?

In a blatant Pamdemic cash in Boris Johnson and his Blustering Bandits have bought the rights to Ken `Diddy` Dodd`s anthem `Tears` and released it on the

Please excuse me if this has been asked previously. I’ve received some wireless headphones (Sony WH1000XM3) for a Christmas gift.

What do I need to be able to listen to my hi-fi set up with these headphones? The headphones are Bluetooth enabled.

All suggestions welcome, thanks in advance.

No problem, well that`s not true, SOCKS WTF!!! Where do the feckers vanish to? I put 7 pairs in the bloody washing machine, transferred to the drier but when it comes to taking them out of the drier only 5 pairs and 2 odd socks remain.

Checked inside the washer & drier, checked under the dog`s bed no feckin` sign.

This is a modern day mystery. Where have all the socks gone?

Austin Tx SXSW festival is cancelled, the first of this years large music gatherings because of Coronavirus fears. I attended with @SteveT 3 years ago. Great event, great people, great gigs.

I reckon this is the first of many music festival cancellations due to health fears. 2020 is gonna be a long and worrying year.

Hey @SteveT are those Cambridge Folk Fest tickets refundable?

Came across this while scanning news from around the globe this weekend.

Fully Armed Rally-Goers Enter Kentucky’s Capitol Building With Zero Resistance

Armed gun owners rallied in Kentucky entering the state’s capitol building in Frankfort on Friday.

“The gathering was organized by the group We Are KY Gun Owners. They were spurred into action when Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam pushed for new gun control measures that led to threats of violence, culminating with Northam declaring a state of emergency earlier this month. Astonishingly, according to the Louisville Courier-Journal, visitors to the capitol building are banned from entering with umbrellas or sticks that are used for protest signs because they can be “used as weapons,” but guns and rifles are permitted.”

“Weirdest thing about guns in the Kentucky Capitol: if you have one, you’re told to walk around the metal detector. Others must pass through and get wanded.”

Crazy, crazy and what`s more feckin` ctrazy. That`s what I thimk.

I see Phil is making news headlines from the sycophantic UK media.

Who the hell cares? None of his own family could be arsed to visit the haggard cretin while he was in hospital. Why should we give a damn what happens to this family of scroungers, inbreds and pedophiles.

This is obviously my own personal opinion and I don`t claim to speak on behalf of anyone else.

I`ve had a lot of issues with Amazon lately.

I try to buy from independent record stores but sometimes they cannot get what I want in stock and I buy lots of physical music and movie releases, therefore finances have to be considered.

Checking my card accounts over the weekend I discovered that I had been charged up front for 15, yes FIFTEEN pre-orders.

Not just that, they had charged me for the same order twice, on two cards. And not just that they had charged twice on two cards for three different items. And not just that they have charged me for an item I had cancelled and that was a pre-order!

So I contacted one of the card companies and raised a dispute over the double charges and the cancelled item. So I`m not worried the card company will sort that out.

The problem is Amazon Customer Services. I have attempted to resolve the charging for pre-orders, speaking to over 10 different Amazon Reps in India, South Africa and The Philippines. I`m not going to go into their explanations except to say it is a load of bollocks.

So has anyone had the same issue?
