Thanks man.
I was holed up in the UK Midlands during the cold winter of ‘86 and am now disturbed by a vivid flashback from a night club in Leeds where I was pursued by a blonde from the estate full of gin and tonic. Think I’ll take the locals here with bigger smiles anyday.!
So glad I didn’t wake up in this one’s belly though! Love your work esp the spoken words.

That be “wo-man” I presume. Thanks a bunch for the compliment :-). The UK Midlands is a scary place. I know from personal experience … I live with an Upper Midlander and a little boy who loves sharks. I’ll have to get some stories off ya.

Hey I just had this horrible realisation that you may think that I’m a woman, or maybe worse gay (not that there’s any thing wrong with that). I’m a 6ft4 100% shark wrestling hetro that looked like Shirley Temple until I woke up on my thirteenth birthday needing a shave and a bigger telescope to spy on the girl next door. Cheers mate. Back in Leeds I know I had a bit too much to drink - but I’m sure to this day she was female :-0/

Quite the opposite …just checking that you realize that I’m the woman ;-). You called me “man” and “mate”. If this gets any more complicated we’ll have to take this conversation off line ;-).

We are a bit slow here in the colonies. I always had this mental picture of David Essex (!) when seeing your avatar and name (scary eh?) My apologies, bet you don’t think I’m a fish though (as my avatar would indicate). Its the head full of saltwater.

I’ll confuse you further…. I’m an American living outside Philadelphia ;-) … and I didn’t think you were a fish, even though I have two singing fish in my basement I didn’t associate that attribute with our scaly friends generally.

Wasn’t life simple when you actually knew the people you spoke to in person and they were generally in the same room. Must go, I need some sleep for an early revenge sesh with Huey and his fishy friends.

Yes RT, you have already described yourself as a “6ft4 gent with a handsome Western visage” with a bald spot. So I didn’t need this added extra for my mental picture of you. Lucky I’m not gay or I’d be right over buddy shining mirrors into your highrise through the haze. (my haze#%*%)

Thanks Sub, Thought you were a fella but the high heels are a bit of a worry ;) We need some kind of CCM sex tester app that can run along quietly in the background. Or I may begin to address all fellow mixters with somthing like “hey you”.
I feel like a proper twit for not realising esseq was of the fairer sex, one of her Anchor remixes is the one that sticks in my head; then 1 plus 1 somehow equaled three. I’ll have to remix her sultry tones now in compensation (she’s a lawyer) :)
Cheers

Well at least you are a “proper twit” I hate the rough ones ;-). I have a little helper hint for you.. read profiles :-). I mean I knew you had kids and a girlfriend … You owe me nothing. I need to listen to more of your stuff. You possess an attribute I greatly admire.. a personality :-). My work here is strictly pro bono, I need someone to pay me to practice law …

Thanks Wellman. I am now conducting a sex tester questionnaire (modeled on the East German athletics one during the 70’s) to determine the gender of our fellow mixters before intercourse (I mean the speaking variety). I take it by your tagname that you are a wellMAN???

Cheers, but thank Alex for the funky bit. I just had the luck leaving it at the right place.

Thanks Ivan, it was either my “fight or flight” reflex from the LHS of my brain or the head full of saltwater of questionable stormwater clarity.
Scomber

Thanks Scott.
The fish is a little “in” joke with my girlfriend - I won’t elaborate, but to explain that a “Scomber” is a small Herring like fish (AKA “the Southern Slimy Mackerel -Scomber Australis”) that tastes awful but is very feisty and the large pelagics in the surf chop them up in their thousands during the spring on the runout tide.
I bet I’ll be in real trouble when my girl reads this, she is known as “Pelecypoda” ;-o

Thanks John, it once was me on the midi enabled guitar until I put it through the bitcrush wringer (not the actual guitar though) and corrected some offset in Melodyne.
I wish I could play like this live, but it slows my system too much, need more RAM (about 20GB thanks)
Cheers friend, I’m having a burl at your Millenium Falcon Christmas song….
