Sorry to hear that Dregz.
ARC Store for me today, when they re-listed some REPS four weeks ago I was straight on them. After two weeks when they were still showing as un shipped I kind of guessed what the out come was going to be.
After never answering any of my emails and pissing me around over the phone, it was no surprise when i got offered a refund today as they had over sold their stock.
What really boils my piss is that I'm probably going to be out of pocket due to exchange rates and card charges, and they still haven't updated their store to show their out of stock.

that sucks Jim
Dregs that blows big time, what kind of show was it? are you able to hook up with another show? or even take your show to another station?

Thanks fellas.
It was pretty much a world music show for the BBC. Idea was to reflect the multi cultural nature of the country with the music, so i got to play alot more than traditional style world music. Threw a lot of Hip-hop, Funk, Soul, Blues and Reggae up in the mix. They said today that they want to feature me on other shows which is cool but it's not the same as having your own. I told them to reformat, take away the world music remit and let me play anything i wanted. I'd deliver them a wicked show then.
See what happens, might all be a blessing in disguise.

As expected, £5:45 out of pocket after my refund.
Not the end of the world, but it just rounds off a piss poor experience.

In other news losing my CMOS settings due to not replacing the battery on the MB quick enough.
fc is lazy
But do they speak english. Its like being overseas when u sit on my step. Polish, Chinese and Indian and african neighbours. My direct neighbours dont speak english though its a nightmare.
I've lucked out with my neighbour! Unloading the van and she sticks her head over the fence, we go through the introductions, blah blah blah. She toddles off and rocks up 20 mins later with a crate of Lager for us!
Plus she's called her dog Brian, which made me piss myself when I heard her calling him in. Something tells me we're going to get along just fine.

People in Scotland being paid £12.50 a week not to smoke.
That's £600 a year.

damn...sort of on the same lines as people getting paid roughly $2,000 each year to live in Alaska.
