Well, I'm not disappointed

None of the parties really appeal to me, though my economic leanings are Tory and I simply can't stand Blair's blatant lying and arrogance, so I suppose the result isn't that bad really.

I mean, Brown hasn't screwed up the economy, perhaps a smaller majority will mean that the sort of legislation that bogs down UK businesses will meet more resistance, and Blair, whilst still in power, clearly has had the smirk wiped from his face. Tellingly the Labour seats retained appear to be ones with notable anti-Blair candidates.

Tories making gains, needless to say on the "Bigot" vote sadly. Ewww, immigrants and gays. What is the world coming to. *sigh*

And all the students voted LibDem. There's a shock ;)

John Humphrys couldn't vote. Someone had registered him as a postal voter. Likewise Mariella Frostrup called the Today programme with the same complaint. I think someone has been registering celebrity names to expose flaws in the security of the postal voting system. Plus the Birmingham complain about "A van going around with postal votes" or something. Heh. Of course, that complaint came from someone losing the election.

I'm wondering what the turnout was. It looks like the electorate made informed decisions, after all. Or at least, a decent number of them.

vixstar had come to visit, as had poggs and stephmog. All I actually remember was trouble finding places to put all the cars for some reason, but I was amused.

Mortcia slept on my foot. As a result, my back hurts again today.

Wooo!

eBay

CD32 and C2N (early style) if anyone wants 'em.

UK listings so probably won't show up on eBay.com

DHL say: Parcel out for Delivery. DMP7D today, then, hopefully.

Yargh!

On b3ta, but I had to share this one. Very disturbing...

I got the hang of recording to the CLICK! I recorded and edited a sequence on the QX. I played in the background on repeat, not locked to the Drumtracks yet but I can do at some point, and played lush pads over it on the JD.

Plus I like this song. It's a pre-college song, a Chevette song.

Eeeep! Revisionism!

"before she could switch on her cellphone to tell anyone"

Nonono!

Fenchurch couldn't reach a payphone!

Woo. Yay.

All my stuff arrived:

(There are other things like my PME40X there).

DMP7D needs the sliders servicing, they're a bit sticky or unresponsive, but it doesn't look in bad shape. Not sure why I need the format convertor, but hey, it's there. The MEP4 looks tidy, shame once installed in a rack you can't read the instructions printed on the top! One of the dafter trends of the 80s, that - my DEP-5 effects unit has the same thing.

And one manual down, 4 to go. Roland JD800 Manual 1. Now I just need the second manual for that, then the 3 (I think) manuals for the Korg T1.

Unlikely, but if anyone comes across a QX1 sequencer with 27 functions screenprinted on the top - please find a way of copying the ROM. Yamaha don't have the full set of 4 ROMs to update, and if they did, woo-yay, £220+ for them. Heh.
