Well, it's not really 10 channel . . . more like six . . . but anyway, it's a Behringer MXB1002. Oh yes, forgot to mention - saw 'Lost in Translation' on Friday, I think it was. I'm afraid I tend to agree with Sam
here and (afraid? Well, you see, I wanted to like this film, I really did), like Sam, saw this film on a, erm, 'preview
disc', yes. Couldn't really see what all the fuss was about. But, I'd like to say something good about the film, so . . .
very good soundtrack.
Good to see 'My Bloody Valentine' creeping up there. Oh, and I quite enjoyed Bill Murray singing along to 'More Than This'
(originally by Roxy Music, but covered excellently by Robyn Hitchcock), during one of those karaoke moments. For those
wanting to see this film, I recommend waiting for the DVD/video/TV release but, hey, that's just me. So what have I been doing today? Not much . . . sleeping, mainly. Woke up at about . . . I don't know . . . 11? 12?
M**** made me eat some toast with blackcurrant jam on (urrgghh), and some orange juice, and then I went back to sleep
until 3pm. Great. We started ripping some of that god-awful wood chip wallpaper of the walls at the top of the house,
outside the bathroom. It comes off very easily, but underneath is a bit of a nightmare of layers and layers of paint and
ancient plaster, some of which comes off with the wallpaper. Hmmmm. Yes . . . and more changes to this web-site. The image at the top has shrunk slightly. This was necessary as I noticed
the web-page was being a bit too wide for some screens. And, erm . . . I've scripted things so that all links send the
URL of the web-page back to this script and then, erm, you know . . . the script generates a new web-page that refers
your browser to the link you were asking for in the first place. You may see a flash of random colour when you click
on links. This is deliberate.
