  7. No it's actually caused by fluid in the joint...or to put it a bit more in a medical context: An enzyme defect that interferes with the way the body breaks down purines causes gout in a small number of people
  8. Yeah it's one of those things that people almost laugh at when you tell them and say something corny like 'thats from drinking too much port'...like I make a habit of drinking port and lemon...but it hurts so bad, except the pills I got from the doctor get rid of the pain totally, they are called Voltarol, if you ever get stuck I'll send you a strip of them, they are a Godsend..
  9. I can't believe that. You went to school???
  10. Yes but nothing very interesting: prozac for depression co-codemol for pain something for my hiatus hernia in my throat actually 2 different pills something for gout, which I haven't had for about a year now but when it comes it makes me want to saw my foot off I've probably got some loperamide as well, never know when you might need it oh and about 3 valiums
  11. Hangover Mike ?
  12. Prefer Evil Love meself...
  13. Got the video of that...
  14. I sold it to 'a well known dealer' for £200 the next day, sorry Ian
  15. p.s. I hope nobody thinks that is racist, if so I'll remove it!
  16. You're right - I'd better edit it !
  17. Looks interesting...
  18. Sounds good to me..
  19. Can you not shout please? Headache. I got a Guitar Ray for a quid out of a shop 4 miles from my house last year. True story. Shit record.
  20. I think people worry too much about feedback - I've got 1886 in total, I think maybe 6 of those are negative, 3 from the same person(!) as a retaliation when I reported him to trading standards, anyway what percentage of 1800 is 6? Bugger all really. On one ocassion the neg was deserved because I didn't pay the person for some reason, and I left them feedback apologising. But when it's not your fault and you've actually tried to sort it, you have to fight fire with fire and tell them whatever feedback they leave you, you'll do the same. As for the thieves and con men, the worst of the lot are the sellers of designer clothing. If you type in Prada or Stone Island or Wranglers, you'll find 95% are "BNWT" (brand new with tags), for s start half of these tags are the wrong colours, the clothes are in designs that the real companies don't make, yet they still ask ££££££ for them. I always read the feedbacks on clothes sellers. Otherwise I wouldn't look as smart as this would I?
  21. Van Dykes - Save my love for a rainy day Reparata - It's waiting there for you both on pale blue labels, vinyl press, some Reparatas on red vinyl
  22. Definitely Russ, early 1974. Brave choice for those times.
  23. Popcorn doesn't really have a lot to do with NS though some of the records cross over into the two scenes, most famously Sam Fletcher - I'd Think It Over. It originated in Belgium and seems to cover all sorts of early 60's pop, from the era when all the male singers were called Bobby. Even I use the expression now because a lot of the records are starting to sound that way, as we go further and further back for our r&b we also find popcorn style records with the right beat - like Larry Trider for example. As for my pet hate, it must be clicking on a record and seeing that the seller is AJ Cabanellas because he must have some kind of machine which makes his records for sale look like they came out of a skip. Oh, and Americans who think that any black music is Northern Soul, or anything by Ketty Lester, Patti Page, Teddy Randazzo and so in is NS because they've seen one record by that artist described as such. People who charge ridiculous amounts for postage. People who try to charge you £2.50 postage because they have to p[ay their mate £1 for taking it to the post office. People who charge you airmail then send your items by surface mail taking up to 6 weeks to arrive. Prisoners on death row who send you their old f*cking slippers and dressing gowns. People in the UK charging £1.50 or £2 for postage then it arrives, not recorded delivery, with 60p postage on it. People who don't accept paypal. People who do accept paypal then charge you a fee more than the true percentage of the charges. People in the rest of Europe paying twice as much for records than they are actually worth. Styrene pressings. Records that hiss. People who say they are going to leave you negative feedback then threaten to tell Ebay when you tell them you know where they live and someone will be round to sort them out. oh..and people who call Ebay "the Bay" must die
  24. No, you just watch a couple of nutters going at it. I'm serious with my bid anyway £425
