It’s a lovely little device, with a great box which has been very nicely designed. My only complaint is that you have to rip it open to get to the device.
Well I enjoyed Requiem for the Rocketmen so much I just can’t wait for the next in the series, which looks like it has just as good a cast. Requiem was so good that I hope the follow up does it justice.
A nice touch on the CD package actually, and it contains all the lyrics, which is good if you want to sing along and get it right too.
Nicely put together album. But of course I’m slightly biased as I’ve been waiting for ages for this to get here. I think I actually ordered it in early December.
And I’m really looking forward to listening to it. It’s going to be awesome. I’ve been a fan of Blancmange for years now and it’s been great to see them come back, make new music, play live and still maintain their identity. I really enjoyed the single from the album, so I’m hoping the rest is just as good.
I’m sure it will be.
I’ve had this little IoT device for ages now. It’s fun, it’s ok, but I’ve always struggled to find a real use for it. Something that I could do with it that would be even a tiny little bit useful. The latest use I had for it was on my Romo. I put the twine on the back of the Romo and it tweeted on any movement in the Romo.
That was ok. Nothing amazing, but ok. More than anything it was fun. But what I’d really like is a way to use the Twine so it serves an actual useful purpose. The biggest problem with achieving this seems to be the fact that the twine is wifi only so I can’t take it outside, can’t use it mobile. That’s really a problem for me.
But perhaps the bigger problem is what to actually use it for? That’s something I’ve never got to the bottom of.
Three little Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators … I’m looking forward to hearing their sound and trying them out.
This will be of limited interest but I thought I’d post it anyway as its of interest to me. You can find my page of barcodes that play a nice little tune in Barcodas (an iOS app that plays barcodes), can be found here.
I’ll be adding to it over time, so if you are interested you’ll see more of them there, although I probably won’t post about adding new ones.
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this story from Big Finish. I knew it would be good, they always maintain a high standard, but I had no idea that it was going this good. It really is one of the best stories I’ve heard in ages. It had me guessing the whole way through. It had loads of surprises and twists, and took a very different approach from other fourth Doctor stories.
I won’t give anything away, just in case you do listen to it, but it was brilliant.
Ok, it’s a bit odd, but then what else would I expect from Blancmange? It’s a good sign that the album will have lots of interesting things to listen to and ponder over.
