There is always a glitch with moving, ugh The words, "This mission, if you choose to accept it" comes to mind Over the past few weeks i have been waiting to move in a flat i viewed..   You learn things pretty fast as you go through this process. There is a reason for estate agents and reason for renting through a private landlord. I would go through a private landlord any day of the week The problem i have come across with private landlord letting, is they are not easy to find. Estate agents are everywhere, but, of course, got to pay for the office they are in. This time, due to time constraints, i had to go through an estate agent. I knew this was not going to as straight forward as the first time. The first time, which was still an agent, but more personal. Only one fee, plus rent and deposit, no fuss. The second time, however, i was ready, well kind of.  I thought, go in, view, pay a few fees, gets keys, well, not that fast, unfortunately. Its not that the fees add...

The reason i am writing this is just in case you can't see anything i put on Facebook. Since Facebook introduced, what  i call the "Cloaking Device" which means, unless you go to a page and click "Get Notifications" or "Close Friend" the pages you have clicked like on or you have liked my page, unless you do that, the information people put on their profiles, will just disappear. I have see it a few times will groups, pages and people asking me, what i have been doing for the past year, as they have no idea what i have been writting on Facebook, because they can't see shit This is my Facebook Page This is my Group page with my "Umbrella" name, on it People do find my page and i accept people/ Although, unless you click "Get Notifications" i just disappear Thankyou Dj Readman

Edited 19th October I moved for the first time in 40 years in April. I am moving the second time in a year, go figure. I found a place, through an estate agent. It seems Private Landlords do not advertise that much and no many around. It found it pretty hard to find a flat to rent that was not through an estate agent. An estate agent it was. The flat i am currently in has already been taken and i have just over a week before i move out. Why The are old fashioned sash windows and let every bit of sound in, The are nit average size, in fact there are 5 huge windows, that give no cusion at all. By the looks as of it, they have not been maintained, repaired or painted, which would have helped. Also the rent is more than i thought, so it was time to move Radio? addicted Due to moving, the net is being transfered. This means a break in radio broadcasting. I have used my phone in the past. The problem is there, my iphone 4s is rubbish at a balance and constant net connection. My Samsu...

I went on a walk from Banbury Lock ( By the Mill Theatre) to the King Sutton Bridge ( Next Village on the route) Saturday 13th September. I was not going to take loads of photos, then i thought, do it for a it of fun. Got quite a reaction on Facebook( You know how people love pictures ;) ) I was going to make an album, but that just copying the photos. Instead i put up this. All the pictures below were mainly taken with my Iphone 4s and a few with my Cannon sureshot. I did some some video as well More walks to come. I don't know when, but i love walking along the canal

I found this out last night (September 2nd), looking round the app store for new games, when i come across, Bioshock? Oh nice, looooovely....but, hold up, only works on tablet and phones no less that 6 months old??? Iphone 5 and Air etc? I don't mind the £10 price tag or the space it uses on your pad, 1.6gig or something? thats nothing I have never owned Bioshock, more for money reasons, as i like Tomb Raider and Resident Evil. Now, thing are different and i like tablet gaming and " High End" games, i call them. As far as i am aware, this is the first app that has been release this way. I hope its the last. I don;t mind upgrading my devices, but for one game, nope What i  find irritating, is the you can buy one for the ps3 of one of them or the most recent release and that is  the full game and the console is 6 years old. Further more,  E.A games released the Mass Effect app last year, works wonders, with sound and some of the best graphics i have seen on an app. ...

Like with any album, you do not know what to expect, I have seen Among the Echoes, live a few times, but obviously, that is different to a studio release. They have darkwave electro guitar sounds that are very rich, great beats and the charisma of Ian Wall on leads vocals. I know that,  Sam Wale. the main guitarist of the band is also the sound engineer and I couldn't wait for the results of this recording FRACTURE The one thing I have always liked is a strong opening that leads you into the songs.  The opening is very subtle that builds up and then explodes into the song, Fracture. The sound is a combination of two guitarists, Riddel and Sam, with Steve on keyboards and Ian Wall on main vocals. They have used this to great effect in new songs, Hate ( My current favourite and live) and the rerecordings of, Pure and Freak The opening of the album goes for the same with the songs. All the songs are pretty catchy as you remember them, especially with the first pr...

The Situation I love music, partly the reason i do radio shows. This, also takes finances to broadcasts on a weekly basis I work for a living. because radio and video recording, which is mainly gigging, does not pay the bills.  It is not a business, although i wish it was. I have recently moved to another flat and waiting for the broadband to kick in. This means, that there is a lot less cash floating round to attend gigs. The main problem with funding this, is most of the cash, goes towards hotel bill. the only reason i book a hotel is public transport stops too early to get back. I have no problem paying for trains and gig tickets, its getting back thats always the problem I have had donations in the past, although i am very greatful for anyone who does Radio Broadcasts This is my main promotion. I broadcast between 18- 22 songs by various artists each week. There are interviews by artists and performances when arranged. All are recorded and are here to stream The most r...
