With the Gear4Music advert banner running across the top of my page, I keep drooling over the guitars and other stuff ... could get expensive this winter.
But I saw a simple eight track digital recorder (built in mics) for Β£189 !
When I was a lad it would cost the earth to buy an eight track recorder (of course not digital).
Technology really seems to make stuff cheaper.

Indeed. Nothing like a bit of forced labour to get the costs down.
At least employing the kids as slaves keeps them off the streets and gives them something to do !

The only problem is, it can be never ending oh Iβll just get this and I need that etc. But I enjoy it and itβs good to have something to do none boat related.

Isn't it David Gilmour who has on onboard recording studio on the Thames ?
You could hire yours out and make the odd shilling or two.

I need some decent headphones and a few other bits. But theyβll have to wait until Iβm working again. Itβs the beauty of having solar and Lifepo4 batteries Iβve got plenty of power.

The pink floyd houseboat is down at Hampton outside Garricks Villa. Nice to see these still exist. Many yars ago the River was lined with them Houseboating must have been rather spiffing. Keep a small punt alongside and a lady and go for little sessions on the River in pleasant locations. Jolly good show !

If you buy the blue one expect it to come covered in oil and the warrenty will run out in less than 12 months.
