More than three months had already past since my last visit to this corner of the world. I am not even sure if old mates could still remember me as one of their blog mates. Above all, I have to say a tripple thanks to the web master for he did not remove me from the list of his bloggers. A million thanks also to those who still remember me and did not remove me from the list of their friends. Of course for those who do not remember me at all.<br> Many things had changed in this sphere of three months some were at my advantage while other were not. It is all about life and I cannot complaint about it. This is part of the game. In this game of life, we are all competitors and like ordinary games, there are winners and there are loser; sometimes we are in the part of the losers and sometimes we are one of the winners. I learned to accept all of these and most of the time with complaint…<br> Three months….three months….after three months…am resurrected, don’t know…who knows…?</p> <p>Thanks to all of you mate…..</p> <p>N.B. am planning to donate one of my <strong>“KIDNEYs”, </strong>is there anybody urgently needs it? But with one condition: I must see the person who really needed it personally…or else no Kidney..</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2008/04/04/am-back-i-will-give-my-kidney-3995542/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2008-02-13:/2008/02/13/the_guys_rules_in_ladies_point_of_view~3721701/angelinthedark2008-02-13T14:26:57+01:002008-02-13T14:26:57+01:00 <p>After a long absence because of exams, am trying to go back to my normal routine.

The Son of God by the Father without a mother became the Son of man by a mother without a father. The Word Who is God before all time became flesh at the appointed time. The maker of the sun was made under the sun. He Who fills the world lays in a manger, great in the form of God but tiny in the form of a servant; this was in such a way that neither was His greatness diminished by His tininess, nor was His tininess overcome by His greatness.<br> He so loved us that for our sake He was made man in time, through Whom all times were made; was in the world less in years than His servants, though older than the world itself in His eternity; was made man, Who made man; was created of a mother, whom He created; was carried by hands which He formed; nursed at the breasts which He had filled; cried in the manger in wordless infancy, He the Word without Whom all human eloquence is mute. He who was God was made man by taking on what He was not, not by losing what He was... Let Christ, therefore, lift you up by that which is human in Him; let Him lead you by that which is God—man; let Him guide you through to that which is God. Truth, eternally existing in the bosom of the Father, has sprung from the earth so that He might exist also in the bosom of a mother. Truth, holding the world in place, has sprung from the earth so that He might be carried in the hands of a woman.<br> <del> St. Augustine, Sermons</del></p> <p> We have already all the preparations, good sentiments, beautiful thoughts for this Great though Mysterious event of Holy Christmas; now, there’s only one thing left to be done: put them into practice and Live it for the rest of our Life. The One who is About to Come doesn’t need all these great and extravagant-external-preparations, He already have all of these, in fact far greater than what we could imagine. The one that He needed most is Our Hearts, not the word/s but the Flesh, our True Humanity.<br> With these poor, insufficient words, I would like to share with you my sincerest Greetings for this Holy Christmas with full of LOVE…!!!</p> <p>MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU SPECIAL ONE OF JESUS: the CHILD-GOD!!!<br> Angel</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/12/23/merry_christmas~3484003/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-11-17:/2007/11/17/title~3311238/angelinthedark2007-11-17T17:28:53+01:002007-11-17T17:29:40+01:00 <p> Women: A wife was not at home for a whole night.

It is for this that Charity is the organ of perfect knowledge. She disposes in us what is in the other. And turning it up side down, as we may call it , the illusion of egoism, we are starting from the very secret of any type of egoism which is directed towards us. In the measure that things exist, they act and they make us suffer. To accept this passion, accept it actively, meaning we make it our own those which are theirs. Thus to exclude from oneself, by means of abnegation, meaning to generate into oneself a universal life. Those which is imposed necessarily to knowledge is nothing but appearance. And each one kept inside him the intimate truth of being peculiar. In me there is something which is hidden from the others, and that elevates me above all the order of phenomenon. Likewise in the others, if they are as me, there is something that slips from me, and it only exist if it is inaccessible to me. Me, I am not the same for them as I am for me, and them for me as I am for them. Egoism is only disturbed by many idea of antagonistic egoism. And despite the lights of our many sciences, still, most of the time we remain in solitude and in obscurity. Only Love-Charity, putting her in the heart of many, lives above any appearances, she communicates up to the very heart of the substance, and resolve completely the problem of the knowledge of being. </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/10/03/egoism~3076993/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-09-30:/2007/09/30/visit_in_tours_france~3064395/angelinthedark2007-09-30T20:56:26+02:002007-09-30T21:13:03+02:00 <p>Am back from Tours, France after eight days of absence.<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"><img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"><img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> I really had a great time with friends. Tours is really a beuatiful city; clean, well organised, quite and people are very hospitable. Aside from Tours, we went also to visit Amboise (of course the castle), Orleans-the city of St. Joanne of Arc. But the thing that really satisfy my eyes there is not the City itself but the Gothic Architecture. From Tours, to Orlean goin' to Amboise, Cathedrals and principal historic buildings shines the granduer of gothic Architecture. What a crazy thing to do...i spent almost half a hour just to scrutinize every angle and every part of this wonderful master pieces....<br> I know that UK have great Gothic Building, that's why i really enjoyed my two months visit there last year.....Buckingham Palce, Westminster Abbey, Canterbury Catherdal....these are just some of those memorable buildings i had a chance to visit.....I really adore these buildings....and I promised to myself...i have to comeback there...and by that time...to enjoy not only the Gothic buildeing but also the marvelous english landscapes....</p> <p>This is Tours' Cathedral</p> <p><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/srv/media/media_item.php?item_ID=2020863" title="Tours Cathedral"><img src="http://data1.blog.de/media/863/2020863_f36bc49427_m.jpg" alt="Tours Cathedral" vspace="5" hspace="5"></a></p> <p>The Castle of Amboise</p> <p><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/srv/media/media_item.php?item_ID=2020879" title="Castle of Ambiose "><img src="http://data1.blog.de/media/879/2020879_af53f5181b_m.jpg" alt="Castle of Ambiose " vspace="5" hspace="5"></a></p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/09/30/visit_in_tours_france~3064395/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-09-13:/2007/09/13/aquatic_salamander~2975630/angelinthedark2007-09-13T20:51:32+02:002007-09-13T20:56:04+02:00 <p>When we were doin' camping the Mt.

I went to Southern Italy, like what you've said James, this time, I spent almost everyday lying in the beautiful beach and in the afternoon i watched the sun setting in the far horizon and some days were spent in the mountain.

Our opinions, our senses often deceive us and<br> we discern very little.</p> <p> What good is much discussion of involved and obscure matters when our<br> ignorance of them will not be held against us on Judgment Day? Neglect of<br> things which are profitable and necessary and undue concern with those which<br> are irrelevant and harmful, are great folly.</p> <p> We have eyes and do not see.</p> <p> What, therefore, have we to do with questions of philosophy? He to whom the<br> Eternal Word speaks is free from theorizing. For from this Word are all<br> things and of Him all things speak—the Beginning Who also speaks to us.<br> Without this Word no man understands or judges aright. He to whom it becomes<br> everything, who traces all things to it and who sees all things in it, may<br> ease his heart and remain at peace with God.</p> <p> O God, You Who are the truth, make me one with You in love everlasting. I am<br> often wearied by the many things I hear and read, but in You is all that I<br> long for. Let the learned be still, let all creatures be silent before You;<br> You alone speak to me.</p> <p> The more recollected a man is, and the more simple of heart he becomes, the<br> easier he understands sublime things, for he receives the light of knowledge<br> from above. The pure, simple, and steadfast spirit is not distracted by many<br> labors, for he does them all for the honor of God. And since he enjoys<br> interior peace he seeks no selfish end in anything. What, indeed, gives more<br> trouble and affliction than uncontrolled desires of the heart?</p> <p> A good and devout man arranges in his mind the things he has to do, not<br> according to the whims of evil inclination but according to the dictates of<br> right reason. Who is forced to struggle more than he who tries to master<br> himself? This ought to be our purpose, then: to conquer self, to become<br> stronger each day, to advance in virtue.</p> <p> Every perfection in this life has some imperfection mixed with it and no<br> learning of ours is without some darkness. Humble knowledge of self is a<br> surer path to God than the ardent pursuit of learning. Not that learning is<br> to be considered evil, or knowledge, which is good in itself and so ordained<br> by God; but a clean conscience and virtuous life ought always to be<br> preferred. Many often err and accomplish little or nothing because they try<br> to become learned rather than to live well.</p> <p> If men used as much care in uprooting vices and implanting virtues as they<br> do in discussing problems, there would not be so much evil and scandal in<br> the world, or such laxity in religious organizations. On the day of<br> judgment, surely, we shall not be asked what we have read but what we have<br> done; not how well we have spoken but how well we have lived.</p> <p> Tell me, where now are all the masters and teachers whom you knew so well in<br> life and who were famous for their learning? Others have already taken their<br> places and I know not whether they ever think of their predecessors. During<br> life they seemed to be something; now they are seldom remembered. How<br> quickly the glory of the world passes away! If only their lives had kept<br> pace with their learning, then their study and reading would have been worth<br> while.</p> <p> How many there are who perish because of vain worldly knowledge and too<br> little care for serving God. They became vain in their own conceits because<br> they chose to be great rather than humble.</p> <p> He is truly great who has great charity. He is truly great who is little in<br> his own eyes and makes nothing of the highest honour. He is truly wise who<br> looks upon all earthly things as folly that he may gain Christ. He who does<br> God’s will and renounces his own is truly very learned.</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/08/13/the_doctrine_of_truth~2800442/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-30:/2007/07/30/after_harry_potter~2725321/angelinthedark2007-07-30T09:35:21+02:002007-07-30T10:04:43+02:00 <p>feeling so bored today...i just finished reading <del>Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows</del>, i would say that book 7 is really good....it's true, as far as i can remember, from book one to six, there are many questions and lapholes, and all of these are answered in book seven....it's so entertaining...every chapter is full of adventure, that's why no doubt, i finished it just for two days....LOVE....that what makes us equal to anybody...death, is just our leveler, oldd and young, rich or poor, good or bad, brute or handsome, what's next after death....who knows<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"><br> Now, i don't know what to read...may be i'll just browse my text book and prepare for my exams on september....<br> nah...come what may for today, i don't want ot do anything, i want to sleep the whole day....i don't want to go out...it's quite hot in here....beach may be, hmnn...that's a good idea, but alone...i doubt it....<br> let's find out </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/07/30/after_harry_potter~2725321/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-25:/2007/07/25/the_voices_of_the_simpson_family~2698730/angelinthedark2007-07-25T13:46:02+02:002007-07-25T13:47:34+02:00 <p> My friend and I was talking about the fifth film of Harry Potter today since i just watched it last Sunday, yes i did like it and so far...as of me, this is the best Harry Potter film so far....<br> without any idea how it happened, we came to talk about the coming film of "The Simpsons" and i just, which unsurprisingly he's expecting this film too.

He told me that at the moment she’s just having par-time job in “Hammer-Smith Hospital” as cleaner since the families where she was working before move to United States, and now she’s looking another job aside from her work in the hospital to cover up the vacant hours am she has. But of course its much better if she could have a fulltime work as my friend told me.<br> Thinking of this, I can’t avoid not to feel sorry for his Mother for I know that she’s helping sending to school many of her Nephews and Nieces back to her country-Philippines. Am thinking to help her but what can I do, I am here in Italy and she’s in London, if she would be here I’m sure a can do something for her since I know some family friends who are looking Filipina Women to take care of their family and their house works because they are hardworking and trustworthy.<br> Am telling this here hoping that there is someone of you here looking for a “fulltime House Keeper” or a “Nanny” or maybe friends who are looking for this. Am not good in explaining folks, but one thing I’m pretty here, <em><em><strong>my friend’s mom is looking for a job. </strong></em></em> I know that’s is not the right place to do it since you don’t know me and about this friend of mine and his family. But One thing I can assure you, she’s a good woman, trustworthy, honest and hardworking, why I can say this, because she has a “religious daughter-her only daughter-a Nun” and a “religious son-her youngest son- a Brother preparing to become a priest” both of them are here in Rome, the youngest son is my best friend, Bro. Ronie John, O.M.<br> Am afraid that this post would be too long, but If you ask me why am so eager to help my best buddy’s Mom, then I’ll tell it to you in a very short way: Ronie John is the one who helped me to go back to the right track, how it happened, it’s quite a long story, one thing am sure, he helps me to find new way, respect to myself and Great Hope for Life. I would say, this would be the topic for my next post. Now, the main concern here is announcing that my “<em><strong>Best Friend’s Mother is Looking for a Domestic Job</strong></em>”.<br> Her mother is Mercedes Dela Cruz, she’s in London for “eight to nine” years, meaning she has necessary documents for the job. She’s living in West End. If anybody is interested and wants more information about her this is her <u><strong>mobile number: 00447901734577</strong></u>, you can call her anytime or send her message telling what time you want to call.</p> <p><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/srv/media/media_item.php?item_ID=1807364" title="ronie.mercy.remy"><img src="http://data4.blog.de/media/364/1807364_5d24a12a39_m.jpg" alt="ronie.mercy.remy" vspace="5" hspace="5"></a></p> <p>This is the picture of Mrs. Mercedes Dela Cruz with her Religious Son Bro. Ronie and Religious Daughter Sis. Remely.

My answer is very simple: "BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET WHAT THEY WANT- for the fact that human beings has no satisfaction, the more they acquire the more they long for more" why I say so, look at you as an example: when you wanted to do something-to see your girl friend- but unfortunately because of unexpected occurence of unfavorable event/s-like your favourite dog is being hit by a car, though it did not die but you have to bring it the animal hospital, now there two reasons why you become unhappy, first unable to see your girlfriend waiting you in her apartment, second you feel pity for your dog...things things doesn't end here, there are still more to come from this very simple fate if yours, they are chain of an intertwine unexpected events of your daily life.</p> <p>About LOVE, people become sad when they love somebody and they don't get the love that they want. It's not easy to love without expecting to be loved in return. True Love never hurts, as they say (i don't know who say that) but what kind of Love is this, simple: loving unconditionally, meaning just love and love because HAPPINESS in loving and loving and loving and not TO BE LOVED, to be loved in return is just the consequence of LOVING FIRST. In loving we must not expect to receive back the kind of LOVE we give because the more we expect the more we'll be hurt when this doesn't come.</p> <p>You want to measure LOVE, then measure it by LOVE itself, this is the only instrument capable of measuring LOVE. </p> <p>What do you think, are you capable of LOVING without expecting TO BE LOVED in return?</p> <p>We wanna be happy? Then let's start loving in this way, JUST "LOVE" </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/07/16/why_many_people_are_un_happy~2647640/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-14:/2007/07/14/meeting_again~2632841/angelinthedark2007-07-14T11:10:04+02:002007-07-14T11:10:04+02:00 <p>My Best Budy arrived yesterday for his two weeks vacation here in Rome.

I was encouraged to think about this stuff, you know, coming to the “burial, wake” of somebody especially relatives; bringing flowers to the tomb, paying respect to the dead, etc is some kind of an awkward or theatrical stuff. am not saying am not saying the am against these nor insinuating that this must not be done coherent to our actions too.<br> What’s the use of bringing flowers the tomb of your family member if then when he was still alive and sick, he never saw your face nor hear your voice after you get out from that door, he was there looking at you waiting you to come back sometimes to pay him visit. To feel your hug, to hear you saying, I love you and I really do care for you mom, dad, aunt, gramma, granda, brother, sister, etc.<br> Did you not feel guilty in showing on the day of his burial, weeping and wiping the tears that flows in your check because you felt sorry of his or her lost. What did you do when he was still alive, did you give even just a drop of your bloody precious tears for your love and care for her, if you did, then it worth more than anything else.<br> Crying in grave is non sense and useless if when he or she was still alive, you never even remember calling her or greeting her on her birthday or on your birthday-thanking them coz if not because of them you’re not here now.<br> Paying respect to the dead “love” ones is a noble act, but giving respect to those who are still around you more noble. Livings needs love and care because they could feel it but dead cannot. Living even sick person could feel your warm touch of love but not the dead, never-not today nor tomorrow. Living could hear your sweet soft voice and feel it right away to their heart, while dead cannot. Your sick family member could feel the warm hug you can give but the dead cannot, nor he can appreciate it or give in return what you just give. He’s cold and cannot feel anything.<br> Ama good Christian, if that is what you want, I give due respect to the dead, but I do care more to the livings who wanted my love than the dead who never ask me anything. Dead friends or relatives never asked you to bring them flowers everyday as a sign of your love, he wants that long time ago when he was still alive so that he could appreciate it and say to you “thank you very much, I love you too, ”<br> So, if you think am crazy in saying these, so be it, I preferred to be tagged as crazy than to be marked as stupid (just find the real and original meaning of this word- it’s worst than you can think, especially in Latin).<br> You have still time to make other people happy and let them feel the care you have for them, today or maybe tomorrow but don’t wait that everything would be too late.<br> Except to those who have good relationship with their relatives and really love their family. And this is just one side of the coin<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"><br> Give love to the Livings and not to the Dead!!</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/07/11/the_living_and_the_dead~2615833/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-08:/2007/07/08/the_simpsons~2597531/angelinthedark2007-07-08T19:34:12+02:002007-07-08T19:34:12+02:00 <p>Just few days from now “Simpsons” the movie is already in the theatre, and am sure I’ll not gonna miss it.

Finally, i got it after two months after I brought it there to be repaired. Everytime i call them to hear how's my lawn mower, they just say, it's not ready yet, tools for your mower did not arrive yet... etc...etc..Holy Heavens!<br> When I drove there this afternoon to retrieve it, traffic is jampacked. Mind me, its a National Highway and have fourlanes drive, still it took me almost an hour to reach the shop which is only 5 kilometres from where i live. It's terrible.<br> Then I remeber that today is Friday, almost half of the Italians living here in Rome or any metro cities drive to neighbouring provences for weekend to enjoy fresh air organic food<br> So it's okay, i have my mower back and reach my place safely. That's one of the good things that happened to me today.<br> Enjoy your Friday evening and have a good weekend folks, since heard that there's a UK Live Earth concert to held in Wembley Stadium this weekend<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/07/06/friday_traffic_and_my_mower~2585747/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-05:/2007/07/05/is_it_true_that_british_especially_engli~2577022/angelinthedark2007-07-05T10:23:17+02:002007-07-05T10:23:17+02:00 <p>I have friend living next door, left for vacation four days ago and I wasn't there when he took his flight.

Went down to kitchen for breakfast: Tea with a drop of Milk, biscuites and a pear and an apple. I forgot that i have a parrot next to me (he is with more almost two weeks already-it's really a fun having him in my house), and he's always on the ball, when he heard there's someone in the kitchen, he started singing to get one's sattention and that means, if you're eating you have to share it to him or esle, he'll never stop singing or may be shouting<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> Obviously I shared my breakfast with him. after "our" breakfast, i went for a walk in the graden (to be honest it far bigger than a graden-as i've said before, it could welcome 100 people for a party). I saw that grassess grown a little bit fast (since i was out for six days) i decided to mow it. I started at around 9:00, since it's little bit cloudy here in Rome today, wacky temperature didn't really affect. I end at around 11:00, went right away to the freezer to find something but nothing is there. I remeber that I still have ice cream in the other freezer: ahhh, finally, i found two types of italian Ice Cream: "Nocciola" (hazel nut)and "Stracciatella" (Chocolate Chip)ahhhhh...what a nice fresh feeling to have them in your throat. By the way, this summer, my day wouldn't be complete with a cup o ice cream... ahhhh haaaahhh.<br> From here, am going to take a bath make my head cooler before lunch...what i have for lunch...don't know yet, maybe just a normal italian lunch, Pasta asciuta, grilled fish and fried potato...let me see what i have in the rif....<br> Have a nice lunch folks...remember me for your lunch okay.... buona petito (anche a Te Daniel Ford<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/07/04/title~2570781/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-07-03:/2007/07/03/i_m_back~2568158/angelinthedark2007-07-03T21:24:22+02:002007-07-03T21:24:22+02:00 <p>Hello Folks,<br> I came back last night and i had a chance to have a look in my blog today but had no enough time to sit and write something.

I can't think but ask myself; no matter how rich the country is, the edge and the gap between the rich and the poor is very evident-of course poverty varies according to country- but one thing that makes them the same, it’s all poverty. :<strong>::</strong>:<br> We are let the world knows every time we do some charitable works in some under develop countries, but why can’t we help first our own country men who needs help in the first place, we extend arms to those who are far from us but can’t bend (of course not all) to those who are nest to us? We see the problems beyond the see while we are almost blind of our own neighbour. We could hear the cry of those who are in the other side of the globe, but we are deaf the cries of our brothers who are next to our door? Is the what progress brought in our life?

I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees Fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all my friends. But, thank God, I still have my driver's license. ù</p> <p>Ciao<img src="/img/smilies/icon_wave.gif" alt=":wave:" class="middle" border="0"><img src="/img/smilies/icon_wave.gif" alt=":wave:" class="middle" border="0"><img src="/img/smilies/icon_wave.gif" alt=":wave:" class="middle" border="0"><img src="/img/smilies/icon_wave.gif" alt=":wave:" class="middle" border="0"> </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/06/15/exams_five_were_done_one_more_to_go~2458601/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:angelindarkness.blog.co.uk,2007-06-11:/2007/06/11/a_friend_who_needs_help~2434234/angelinthedark2007-06-11T18:05:33+02:002007-06-11T18:11:05+02:00 <p>Sorry to disturb you folks, but one of my blog mates needs a little help, so if you could something, this would be highly appreciated. He have to buy something but he doesn’t know where to get it.<br> I think he’s from England. I posted here his so that you may have knowledge what his problem is.<br> Here is his blog address: <strong>snakediggers.blog.co.uk</strong></p> <p>while his post is this:</p> <p>My Uncle Phil/lip brought round this thing called a "record player" earlier. I'd seen one before at my mate Derek's house. Now he (Derek) uses his to make clay pots, but my uncle still manages to still get sounds out of his.<br> So anyway, he pops in with this machine and gets these "platters" out ("the platters that matter" - so he said ) and proceded to set one of them in motion, soon after placing a "stylus" on the edge of it. He wired it through my Mum's amp and before I knew it music was playing -a bit crackly, but remarkably good considering the relative antiquity of the format.<br> Now the reason I'm even mentioning all this is because, my uncle gave me all his platters (I showed some interest and he's moving back to Angola and can't take them with him - he works for the UN apparently) and also this thing to play them on. He told me to get a new "stylus" and explained that if I did, the crackling would more than likely improve. Thing is, I don't know where to get one, so I'm stuck.<br> The conclusion is I've got about 1500 platters and not a thing to play them on. I've just looked on ebay, and am thinking of investing imminently. Any recommendations regarding make/type anyone? Serious advice only please - I have about £100 at my disposal. Thanks - no time wasters please.<br> Help you could share would be considered important… i hope am not asking to much for this<img src="/img/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="middle" border="0"><br> Angel</p> <p> <small> <a href="http://angelindarkness.blog.co.uk/2007/06/11/a_friend_who_needs_help~2434234/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>
