  • Speaker: Music: The Vinyl Frontier, in reply to Danielle,

    Attachment

    Hello, I am short and round and a girl and yes, *I know a lot about this shit*.

    More than most 'boys' I know about music, and more than anyone about shoes and handbags. We have a lot to learn. ;-)

    I've cleaned out my vinyl twice due to relocations, both local and International. I keep finding records I used to own in the sale bins at Real Groovy, or in random Antique shops and repurchasing them. I still get a kick out of things like scoring Talking Heads' Little Creatures on Vinyl in near new condition for $20, with a bonus picture disk single hidden in the sleeve.

    Or finding another Jam 7" I don't yet own. I thought I'd grow out of it. But seems that's going to take a bit longer. I'm just wondering when it's going to be safe to ask for my Smiths/Morissey collection to be returned from exile. Oh how I miss it so.

    ETA: The above was meant with a high dose of self-deprecating irony. Just so Alan doesn't think I'm in some kind of contest. ;-)

    I’ve kind of used up most of my bird photos in earlier posts. But these two brass ones at Pah Homestead caught my eye yesterday.

  • OnPoint: Re: Education, in reply to James Butler,

    More spatter than scatter.

    A scatological scatter plot, if you will.

  • Capture: BOTY Potty., in reply to bsd1,

    So many worthy birds but had to vote for the Karearea

    Thanks, and welcome bsd1 (I'm not trying to guess what that means). Wonderful shot.

    Some great early contenders here from David, Biobbs and Gareth too. Keep 'em coming.

  • Capture: BOTY Potty., in reply to Hilary Stace,

    I think he was talking about all NZ species – not just birds.

    Yes that was my understanding. John T started by saying there are around 600 of our indigenous species (all creatures great and small) that are endangered, and Mike correcting him by saying closer to 2800 of 10,000 species. Although he goes on to say that more than 4000 lack sufficient data to make that judgement (if memory from one viewing serves me correctly).

    I had a lot of fun on that as a kid.

    This is at Carey Park in Oratia, West Auckland. Pretty good set up.

    Thank you. My people will talk to your people..

    Found another one. If I can locate the original files (from 2004), I think I had it going even further round. Will have a dig.
