It's not even 8.45
and we've already got 5 threads on the go, do we really need HSH?

The last few days have been really good on here.

Edit: How rude of me, morning spakka & K2!

Morning K2
Just another ordinary day at work (read there's bound to be some upheaval or other).

Haven't seen you around these threads for a while? How've you been?

Yes we do. A HSH thread is always good for those things that just can't fit in a thread of their own. There's nothing wrong with having both.

Morning all
I'm well, spakka. Just been a bit busy of late with work and personal stuff.

The recent diversity of threads has been quite interesting though, if somewhat difficult to keep up with.

@K2
I agree. It's much easier to find where the chat is with a single HSH threads. Although it has to be said that there have been plenty of interesting threads this week. However, once they start going off-topic, they degenerate into HSH threads of their own and because there's so many of them, it becomes hard to find where the random chat is going on.

Anyway, I was hoping I'd meet you at Edinburgh? How come you didn't make it?

I feel like a teenager again
There are workmen fitting out a new lab next to my office, and they've either found an '80s hits' station on the radio, or a 'greatest tunes of the 1980s' CD. Currently Aztec Camera is wafting through the partition.

It's great. Takes me back over 20 years, that does.

Edit - I couldn't come to the Edinbash for reasons of illness.

@K2:
If you spend ages listening to 80's mp3s, you no-longer have that feeling of being a teenager again just by listening to a generic 80's CD. Now, if you could get hold of some very obscure songs that are hard to get hold of, that really will get your neurons firing.

@B69: Good luck and enjoy the rest afterwards.

Anyway, I'm making toast. Does anyone want some? I'll tilt the toaster so it faces my monitor and hopefully, the eject-mechanism will send the toast through the monitor, through the Intertubes and out your monitor at the other end. Just remember to keep your mouth open!

A colleague here
used to be in an 80s cover band. He knows more about obscure 80s music than anyone I've ever met!

And it must be a radio station they're listening to - I can hear DJ-rambling going on just now.

Have fun with the toast.

Haha
If you want to talk about cheesy 80s music, this is what I'm currently burning to CD (see other thread)

Quality cheese!
I remember that song well. And listening to the piano sound, I'd say that was a Roland RD-1000 or similar.

The one problem with HSH
Is that it would appear *nothing* is too trivial to deserve its own thread.
