In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud — 'The mud should sound perfectly awful, but it doesn't,' notes the experiment creator Who knew listening to a banana sounded so good?

Helsingør is great. Apart from the historical sites, the maritime museum etc, it's also fun to see stacks and stacks of beer for sale on the streets for Swedes nipping across the Kattegat on booze cruises. Apparently one of the busiest ferry routes in the world with 70 crossings a day.

Genuinely feel sorry for the referees allocated to our games. They'll get RSI from all the penalties they have to give to the opposition.

Wales U20 throwing leads away like Caroline Street chip paper two weeks in a row. Giving up a try from an unnecessary penalty 90 metres away.

It's just all so depressing and with every day that passes I just want the whole thing to be burnt down, wound up and to go away. Welsh rugby is dead.

I was born in December and I love spending time in the Nordics. What does that tell you about my body chemistry, the kind of temps I am comfy in and how after 42 years of being on this earth I am quite capable of dressing how I need/want to for the environment?

I've come out in shorts and a basic ass plain adidas football shirt because I'm taking advantage of a rare dry day to do 8 miles split by 2 pints. Even tho its only 6°C out, I know I'll be warm from the walk. Always amuses me when people ask if I'm cold. If I was cold I wouldn't be wearing this.

My instincts say go Røde. If in doubt, lean to the microphone manufacturer and not the camera manufacturer that also does microphones.

That's now three gigs I've missed out on through no fault of my own.

After years of waiting, Jefferson Starship are playing gigs in the UK this June.

Guess who's in Sweden the week they're here.

When I come to power, all videos starting with "Americans React To...!!!" will be removed from YouTube and the people who put them there will be forced to have a live mackerel put down their shirt.

Says something about the sort of things I take notice of.

Anyway, a W instead of an M, we've seen this before, this could be the evil twin Wario version of the Delorean

North Yorkshire hosted Super League rugby for the first time in front of a full house and many of those who were watching York for the first time will have seen enough to return. They trailed last year’s treble winners 18-6 at one stage but scored 13 unanswered points in the final quarter to inflict a rare defeat on the Robins and cause pandemonium in the stands.
