Video Stills Camera

I’ve only seen the advert on TV once (a few weeks ago I think) and can’t remember the make / model. It’s a camera that shoots video which you can then go through frame by frame to select one as...

Talk Talk

Right, I’ve had it with these clowns. When they gave me a new tariff a couple of years ago it was to reduce my typical £40+ bills to about £30. Last two have been £80 and £65. My line is fibre...

New Avatar

Mine’s out of date – gave up playing over a year ago. So, a new one? It has to be relevant. I want something that truly says “AnswerBank”, but it has to be quirky and original too, not just a...

Real Music?

In my early teens music was always real instruments because we didn’t have sequencers and drum machines. The electronic thing – Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, Soft Cell and the like – was a welcome...

Old Toy

When my brother and I were kids we were bought something which I thought was called Multi Rig, but I can’t find anything on the web by that name. We’re talking about maybe late 1960s/early 1970s....

Autobiography

It’s very early days and, ultimately, it may not happen, but about 5 years ago one of our top cryptic crossword setters suggested I should write a book on the subject. As it’s been done often by...
