For threads in the "unread content" queue you can also click on the time of the last reply to navigate to the end of the thread. Would be embarrassed to say how long it took me to figure that out. Kept clicking on the little "post" bubbles on left of the queue thinking : "Surely that'll work? Maybe my browser's broken? It's the only thing that makes any sense!"

That works.

I also can't reply to a post on Safari. Clicking in the text area just brings up the file attachment links and there's no way to get a cursor.

One congrat to your son and one more for his father. It is the HC way.

Happy Birthday Dinny!

Happy Birthday gents. Looks like good time had by all!

This was pretty extraordinary. Sat in the kitchen and none of the chefs looked more than half my age. [emoji53]

It's good. [emoji106]

Yes the Aston electrics etc. are generations behind, as is their horrible auto manual gearbox. But the stick with the big V12 is magic. Sadly no longer an option with the latest generation cars.

The Blue Nile -- A Walk Across The Rooftops

This rang a few bells.

If I could have one car just to drive for fun, with no practicality considerations whatsoever, I would get a manual V12 Vantage.

OK, that's embarrassing.

While we're all here, HP 30 versus HP 25 worth the splurge? And any thoughts on Old Pulteney 21? Ah thank yew.

Can't help it, you're sort of a wine Christ figure. "Wheresoever cork is withdrawn from bottle. There also shall I be."

Definitely looks faster. But maybe a little lightly armored?

Went to try the London version of Les 110 de Taillevent today. Just opened and still shaking out, but 110 wines by the glass and this is the somm. Greg, you would like it!

As far as I can tell, the new EPA assertions apply only to 3.0 TDI engines in the Cayenne, Touareg and Q5 etc. But VW has now admitted it may have a problem with CO2 emissions as well, so who knows where that will ultimately lead.

Anyone who buys a diesel Porsche deserves to get fucked over. [emoji6]

Well the Senn web site says putting the amps in the cups makes it 200% better. So they have hard numbers on their side!

Pulp -- His 'N' Hers

Has anyone ever told you that you are very diplomatic?

I say go for it if it makes you happy. There's no end to the debate about relative value -- only you can decide what's worth it to you. Also kind of like the idea of a megabucks DAC in a headphone rig.

Don't eat chips, but even if I did I wouldn't eat these fucking chips.
