What's the weirdest baby name you've ever heard (or considered)?
I heard Damien Hirst has a child called Cyrus, which is excellent. I also like the name Xander - not sure if it's short for Alexander or if it's a proper name in it's own right.
I set my new stereo up tonight. It looks, and sounds, rather excellent. You're supposed to play music through the amp non-stop for three days to "run it in". I probably won't be doing that.
I bought it from a nice man called Ken who runs a shop called Hi-Fi Stereo in Sale. It's a Cyrus CD6 CD player, Cyrus 6vs integrated amplifier (the two silver boxes) and Kef iQ5 speakers, in case you're interested. The green record player (made by Pro-Ject) isn't new, I've had that for a while.
I now have to sell the old components on eBay...
In the third photo, below, you can see a mysterious blur on the right. This is Bear. He is banned from shaking crud out of his fur (as he's wont to do) within six metres of the stereo. It's an exclusion zone.
I'm thinking of getting some new speakers for my stereo. In fact, I'm toying with the idea of getting a new stereo, after listing to it in the shop on Saturday.
The speakers I want are Kef iQ5's. This is quite funny to me, since when I was at primary school, kef was slang for fart (hur-hur).
The stereo I want is a Cyrus CD6s CD player and 6vs amp. The problem is that if I was to buy all this stuff I wouldn't be able to afford to do any of the following:
- Replace our rotting windows
- Get the hole in the roof fixed
- Rip our manky living room carpet up and replace it with some nice walnut laminate
- Go on holiday
- Go out
- Feed the dog
Still, a nice stereo is more important than a watertight roof, double glazing's shit and dogs are natural scavengers.
