OK, there's been a space-time shift and it's now officially April 1st. Count me as your first gotcha of the new financial year (grin). Now all we need is a Skype link to Steve and we're up and running... Best wishes and thanks for the best chuckle I've had this week - my wife fell down the stairs, I've got one kid off school with flu and another off throwing up everywhere - now it's just me and the cats hiding in the office and my sanity's obviously slipping. .

Hey Tim! The reason I asked if you were serious is that my message with the link was a complete hoax! It was my 'messed-up' response to the message enquiring about a talking tuner under the subject heading of "Passive Monitors"! If you look at the actual link it reads: www. talking tuners r us .com! Sorry fella, the only talking tuner I've ever had was a guitar tech called Steve! grin! l8r Mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Burgess" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, October 22, 2010 2:57 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Talking Tuner, was Re: Passive Monitors? > Hi Mike, > > For once I was being totally serious - I got a page not found message when > I > tried the link - serves me right for getting all excited about a talking > tuner > > Best wishes. > > Tim Burgess > Raised Bar Ltd > Phone: +44 (0)1827 719822 > > Don't forget to vote for improved access to music and music technology at > > http://www.raisedbar.net/petition.htm > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > On > Behalf Of Mike Christer > Sent: 22 October 2010 14:40 > To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Passive Monitors? > > Wait a minute... > > Are you serious? > > mike > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Tim Burgess" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Friday, October 22, 2010 11:58 AM > Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Passive Monitors? > > >> Hi Mike, >> >> Sad to say that the link failed, so no tuners or monitors at that site. >> >> Best wishes. >> >> Tim Burgess >> Raised Bar Ltd >> Phone: +44 (0)1827 719822 >> >> Don't forget to vote for improved access to music and music technology at >> >> http://www.raisedbar.net/petition.htm >> >> >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] >> On >> Behalf Of Mike Christer >> Sent: 21 October 2010 22:12 >> To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >> Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Passive Monitors? >> >> Oh Yeah!
