@t Shane : Hi my friend... you will organise a diner with Vader :spin: on Endor ?

if you want to offer a nice pleasure for a special ocasion to your nice wife, I think this one is good and has a constant quality (like all the good "Maisons" !) :
Champagne Ruinart brut sans étui : Ruinart - Champagnes Brut sans année - La Grande Epicerie de Paris
It is the basic Champagne of this famous brand but beat most of the first Champagne of the other brands IMHO.
This is my Champagne for special ocasion. I don't really appreciate the Champagne. It's a very special wine. Champagnes are expensive (because expensive to make). But this one is special, a little too frooty and lake of dryness for my tastes but very nice to drink.. and definitly good, Wemen love it, especially under the tour effeil a cold day of winter (don't ask me why). one or two bootle of Ruinart by year... well I don't make richer the bankers and wine producers ! It's not a shame like a 30 years credit from Bank to buy an house e.g. 😉

Never put a Champagne in a freezer to make it cold but 24 to 36 hours in your fridge at 8 to 10 degres. temperature must down slowly. Never let stay a Champagne at a temperature of more 20 degrees more than one hour (take care in Australia between the vendor and your home (don't use Internet😀) . never expose a bottle of any wine to the Sun beams and in a hot car (minimum already climatized and cold less than 20 degrees: one hour, two max). I have to say one day a friend who worked at the Crillon Palace Hotel in Paris offer me during a visit in the capital a very expensive Veuve Clicquot millésimé older than 15 years and of a very good year (certainly a bottle at more than 700 euros...) . Wowwww, I hope to everybody to live this experience, the taste was just a kick in the *** by an elephant or the tail fin of a whale or the accelaration of the Milenium falcon.... something like this !

As you know the Name Champagne come from the eponym region in France, very special terroir, ground and weather who can be copy. I taste some foreigner wine... :headshot: pal copy !

The problem with the wine, even in small distance in my own country is the transport :wine is more fragile than a flower : temperature has to be constant at 1 to 3 degrees, after transport wines (red mostly) have to have a rest of one month... But you can make an exception with young white wine or Champagne.

about our collaborative. Certainly not a 50/50. If we would be paid with time maybe. But here it was not a work, I maid no sacrifice with time as you know I have no job in this moment because Paulson and all the consequence of him economical politics who maid the subprimes at the end (thank you american lobbies to spend the economy of your people to make an irakian war without the mass destructive weapons).
As it was funny but the depressed ******** (that's not their fault, they are hill !). We was a lot, many gave very usefull input, technical I mean. i just spent a little time to send some PM to very clever fellows like Marce, SSerg, Nazar : most of us have no free time even for themselves and some helped like Marce. Many help a lot with driving also like Audiolapdance, Alexiis IIRC; All the material was here as I assumed : my major concern was to weak up all the egoist habit and shake up the sleepy people to make the people work together even when it was too simple for them as they had aleady the knowledge, a far better device ! Special thanks to them to help us, you are super !

As you see and as I surmised they are no really too much egoists here (some(few) wanted just to share their design if inputs of specialists only: they mistake themselves I think : share first, look after what happen is a better attitude !) and DIYAUDIO is a great communauty. If all the enterprises 'll work like this world will be better to write it simply !

Speed of life and self ego is one hill of the the two last century : here we took our time and laughed while a limit was fixed (I said 6 month we had two concrete result with two boards in less than 2 months and one came from a famous constructor : AUdial ! in the sharing spirit with low price : special thanks to Pedja Rodjic and CFT fellow who asked to pedja -Cheung who has already the far better flag ship of Audial-: Pedja will sharing himself with a local jazz festival in Serbia him awn delta gain!) Is it no great ?
We can't forgett of course RyanJ whom offer him first work (around the inputs of John from ECdesign who share also with the communauty and offer gently some of him famous discoveries for free) with him standalone first draw for him own coreboard. he offered him also to the communauty in both spirit for improve it and as a gift for the others. Was ok for the modifications in all directions without ego. Special thanks to him also. I hope he will no suffer of economical defection in the list, share a little with a contribution for the DIYAUDIO infrastructure and keep a little money for him effort for shipping to us the boards : if yes Ryan, give up just one day a beer for a bottle of Ruinart Champagne (ouf I find a nice transition !). You worth it of course. Hé folks if I were a rich man i'll take the plane for the BBQ in your country. I used to have a friend who work near Brisbane on the Club Med for two years but he never invit me here in a time I earned my life decently (but invited me elswhere)... friends are strange sometimes !
Sorry to be too long folks and endure my bad english and mix the technical with "the others interest thread side which is elswhere here... food trhread e.g.), by the way I hate sometimes the Morse (but pragmatic) side of DIYA.
Sorry at least for the incremental list, it's not my habit for this sort special readable GB thread by their OP.

Hourra to Ryan ! Hip Hip Hurra ! You are also my Tazz Tasmania hero as you draw like the lighnings !

Dearest Chewbacca, Vader is no longer welcome here on Endor. Indeed, after some musings, the decision of the Ewok Collective has remained constant for some time.

However, there is the third annual Two Moon Festival which is due to take place on July the 33rd, and perhaps this would make for an opportunity celebrate in tda1541A and other more traditional festivities. We have organised several TaunTauns to slow roast over open coals, which is a bit of a twist on what we did last time, but should prove to be quite successful.

We look forward to your attendance, The Princess Leia will of course be present and word through the wild vine, is that she is looking for a somewhat hairy man with speech impediment, so it seems, my friend, that you could be in the running.

Shane
 
2 separate moons, of which there are three.

Its a little similar to 3 phase power in which they should be 120 degree out of phase from each other, yet there are three occasions throughout the year in which two are appearing in full. The phenomenon is so widely misunderstood, that there is no actual understanding.

As for Leia - well, she's always had a thing for Wookies. Han, was just a fling that never matured, and as we all know, with Luke - she could have ended up before the Supreme Council - although there are rumours of illegitimate children, none as of yet have come forth.
 
Sorry guys I was the first to saw Leia ! (bellow our photograph when I ask her hand, Wookie tradition!)

But Shane is right, she has a sister, look at the family this last summer. The sister has a lot of success ! It's not a Wookie life to escort them to the beach !

😀 Are you living in a small village also ? 😀 with sad neighboors I mean ?

Hé where were you ? There are twenty people in the world you think like you... I know less ten of them... family included ! happy to met you, thanks for the kind words. Eleven to find yet !

Darwin explained very well how darwinism let the wookie funny ! When you are ugly you need to have some humour to survive and allow possible reproduction of the species. This adaptation on many centuries let possible enough humour both to make laugh my banker and a top quality princess like Leia. They share both the same erectil organ than you human beings call the "ears" ! Finally you can be very nude with the both (I mean the banker and the princess... did you ever see wookies nude ears one day ?) !

Why do you believe nowadays all the young males here have beard even if they are ugly with it and with less verility than a poodle?

Of course to resist to the Wookies, but with any pragmatical sense :
Can you explain why female became shaved downwards while the young males maid the opposite upwards ???? Stupid young humans !

Hé Cheung, right: your avatar is the first on the list... my future brother in law !

We will make the ceremonie In Xiahé (I visited then I was 27 : what a bus trip when coming from south.. dangerous very deep ravin and very beautifull landscape pre-hymalayan landscape before !) in the Labrang Monastry... well they not allow mariage ceremonies but with the beauty of the monastry I will remember all my life these red-monks playing to pool in the street of Xiahe !

Please visit this magic aera if you can Cheung, a plane to the capital of spice food et hop: a bus trip of two days (surmise maybe nowadays it is not the back-pack trip it was 20 years ago ?! but not sure as it is is the middle of nowhere like naboo !)

Shane, I can understand about neighbours and more in Australia with its wild nature! If you live in the North of your big countrie : put crocodiles in the garden for neighbours and push the volume of the hifi to let them in chime to the door ! 🙂. If you live elsewhere : put in the garden some starving dingos and Ninja kangoroos but close the windows please : and try again the music trap for your neighbours ! Did you try this one : Philip Perris : not DJ guru from Ibiza but famous digreridoo player ? 🙂

75 kits... wow ! + the ones of the AYA2... TDA1541 is not dead ! And as the famous japanese multibitDAC chip is waited each year without result... we can trust to the long TDA1541 life !

Ha!.. I'm down south mate.. no so many crocs but there are plenty of snakes in the warmer weather.

I did have one guy try to sell me a small crocodile in a coke bottle when I was in Brunei maybe I should have tried to bring it back.

You can actually buy them, theres a pet store in Pt. Augusta that gets them in and sells them for $700, which seems expensive. Didnt seem to be the type to ask for a licence - but you'd probably need one if people started going missing and someone came to investigate the 'reptile park'.

.. I like your idea, though.. if only you could train them. As you know, they get pretty big and last very long time.. would eat a lot too. Probably run out of neighbours pretty quickly 😀
 
Excelent this storie about the baby crocodile in a Coke bottle !😀

Oh yes a licence.... I see 🙄 ! And the smell of the BBQ can be a problem also...

I have a solution : we can lend a french politic man to you ! Very adaptiv, and guaranted 100% weapon of mass destruction ! More deadly than a Black Mamba ! They poisen our lives and have the same crocodile brain also: no need to move, the prey feed them here !:down: I should advise you a greek politic also, but it's too nasty 😀 !

I suspect this french politician would have the same reptilian blood as the ones that we currently have. And of course weapons of mass distraction, also. We have enough to deal with already - if you have not yet done so, please meet the Australian PM

update

Hi Everyone,

The boards have been manufactured and have been shipped to me as of 30/6/14 18:00 EST. I expect them to arrive within a week.

Once I have looked over them for the final quality inspection I will then invoice the members on the list. I will ship the boards in groups with the first members paid having priority shipping.

Please note that this will not mark the end of the group buy, a total of 100 boards have been ordered. I will be reserving 3 for myself to give to personal orders. So a total of 97 are being sold on diyaudio.

97-75=22 left!

Ryan
