The TD 124 was my weapon of choice. That was one seriously engineered deck. I built a few valve amps over the years too. All good fun, especially at first switch on! Did that for the 301 and the Lenco. Never heard the TD 124, supposed to be awesome. Fav amp at the mo is my DIY 300b mono's with Aikido pre. Smooth, detailed, immediate. Low power is the issue...shouldn't have sold the Tannoys. Bit off topic....momentary lapse. Edited October 27, 2021 by IMHAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slawek Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 OBR confirmed what was known for some time. Impact of Brexit on economy 'worse than Covid' Speaking after Wednesday's Budget, Mr Hughes said recent data showed the impact of Brexit was "broadly consistent" with the OBR's assumption that the leaving the EU would "reduce our long run GDP by around 4%". "We think that the effect of the pandemic will reduce that (GDP) output by a further 2%," he added. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-59070020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slawek Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 More from the latest OBR report "In summary, the evidence so far suggests that both import and export intensity have been reduced by Brexit, with developments still consistent with our initial assumption of a 15 per cent reduction in each. It is, however, too early to reach definitive conclusions because: • The terms of the TCA are yet to be implemented in full, meaning trade barriers will rise further as more of the deal comes into force. For example, the introduction of full checks on UK imports has recently been delayed until 2022. • The full effect of the referendum outcome and higher trade barriers will probably take several years to come through, with businesses needing considerable time to adjust." https://obr.uk/download/economic-and-fiscal-outlook-october-2021/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pig Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I think many are hoping it will sort itself out 'in the end'. Personally I think the real penny drop moment should actually be about the connection between Brexit and the state of the current government.

Sadly no it will become 'Brexit was a good idea but the implementation was amiss' as is taking hold now amongst those who were cheering it on. The mythology is huge.

Of the 162 licences, 113 were permanent, an increase of two, and 49 were temporary, an increase of 18. Vessels with a temporary licence would be able to fish in Jersey waters until 31 January 2022, "to give them time to provide further data which is necessary to secure a permanent licence". There were 55 vessels in a third category that would not have a licence to fish in Jersey waters after 31 October, said the statement. 55 still unresolved, looks like there will be more trouble on Tuesday.
