(Belated) First Birthday!

Hello there to anybody who may be lurking around these parts!

Yes, that's right. As the title says, my blog is now 1 year old. On the 12th of July, in fact. So yes it's a few days late, and yes it's been a while since I've even typed Blogger into my address bar. My apologies.

Happy Birthday to AnthonyTalks.co.uk


There's not a great deal to say, except a massive thank you to everybody who has read, commented, shared and been involved with this site in any way whatsoever. I honestly don't even know what made me decide to start a blog in the first place, but I'm glad I did. And as much as I do appreciate everything you readers have done, I can't help but feel I've let you down a little. This will be my 21st post in 12 months. So sure, that averages almost 2 posts a month, but it's kind of not.

So it's time for a change. (He says, for perhaps the 7th time so far.)

I will get back into blogging. You'll see.

So thank you.

See you soon!
- Anthony.

PS - Mia and Hayley, I will do those challenge things, I promise!

Vinyl, and why it's better than anything you've ever heard before.

Hello one and all! So if you don't know by now that I like vinyl records, then I probably haven't told you. Sorry about that. But yes, I do indeed appreciate a good vinyl. There's something about it that is just so different to any other form of physical audio, like a CD, or cassette, *chuckles*. I don't think I can quite put my finger on it, but the sound you get from that tiny stylus running itself through the grooves is actually quite magical, and to my ears there's nothing quite like it. I've been wanting a record player for some time now, and when I went out to search for one last week, I ended up buying a full Hi-Fi system. Vinyl, radio, cassette and CD all in one, wow! Of course the tape section will likely never be used, and the radio doesn't particularly interest me, since I can only find a couple of stations. That does include Siren FM though, hooray for local radio! The speakers don't match the stereo itself, and it's been sold to me with

The worst day of my life ever.

But not really I guess.  Today, rather last night my computer died. Now, if you don't know me, you probably won't know that just about my entire life revolves around my computer. I use it for all my work, gaming, YouTube, Twitter, etc, etc. So you can imagine my despair when I return to use it last night and it doesn't power on. Apologies now to those of you who won't have any idea what I'm on about. And apologies if the format and such of this post goes haywire, I don't think I've ever blogged from my phone! I'm pretty good with technology, I usually know what I'm doing. But this one honestly stumped me. So I turned to the trusty Overclockers UK forums for help and, after some very useful information from some people who're much more in the know than me, I had a list of solutions.  Tested my power supply, and it's fine. (thank goodness.) If my power supply had gone, there's a chance it could have taken the whole system with it, which wou

Hello, 2016.

'Ello. Well, what can I say. It's been ten months since I last wrote on here, my-my, how time flies. I'm not going to apologise, I always seem to start posts with an apology for my absence. I've been really flipping busy. And when I wasn't, I had nothing to write about, so I kinda just left this website alone to gather virtual dust. It's 2016 now, and even though we're not even two months in, it's been a pretty rough one so far. It certainly hasn't all been bad, though. No doubt it won't be all that easy of a year, and at one point a couple of weeks back, I was really close to calling this one a write-off. But the fact that we aren't even two whole months into the year means I can't give up this early. So what should I talk about? Well, right now, not a lot. I'm trying to focus on my degree, but there's a hell of a lot going on around it that's making it quite the challenge. However, at risk of this turning into a long, boring
