In late 2020 I realised I'd spent most of my adult life buying more CDs than I actually had the time to fully appreciate. I set myself a project: stop buying music, and listen to what I had. I thought about putting all my tracks on shuffle and letting rip but wanted something ...
Very happy to now have my very own @Number10cat thanks to the people at @Makeship. He’s even cuter in real life!
The next artist is D.A.F., and my only album is Das Beste Von DAF. I don't remember buying this album, but I ripped it in 2020 and have never listened to it. Here goes!
The Czars was the last of my artists beginning with "C" (a band would be hard pushed to be sorted after Czars, but I'm sure there's an indie band called Czzzzxxxz somewhere). The first of my D artists is "D:Ream" (the punctuation means they get sorted first under D).
My only D:Ream album is called D:Ream On Vol. 1. This was their first album, released in 1993, and includes some of their biggest hits. I don't remember buying it. My computer software program shows that I ripped the CD in 2018 and listened to it once. Here goes!
I don't remember buying The Czar's album "The Ugly People Vs The Beautiful People". I couldn't even remember having heard of the artist. But here we are. The album is from 2001, and it's been unplayed in my library since I ripped it from CD in 2020.
My music-playing software program shows that I have listened to this album 19 times, and it's time for me to move on. I enjoyed this album! My personal favourites were the tracks Drug, Side Effects, Killjoy, Roger's Song, Anger, and Autumn.

I've been banking with @HSBC_UK for over 30 years. For context, that means they've seen every single penny I've ever been paid in my working life. In addition, I've had two mortgages with them (one paid off, the other on the way). 1/9
All along, I've been wondering why @HSBC_UK wouldn't send me a card, or couldn't send me a card, or didn't want to. They're either incredibly disorganised or aren't telling me the whole story, but neither of these is attributes I want in a bank. 8/9
At no point have HSBC been able to explain why they won't send me a credit card, so I'm drawing a line under it. I'm very happy with my shiny new credit card (from another provider), and I'm in the process of switching all my banking elsewhere. @HSBC_UK, 👋👋👋
