Hiya !! I am on the Horns of A Dilemma. I am looking for a certain cd to help me relax, tried every muscle relaxant going, been crying from stiffness/spasms @ times, dosed up to the eyeballs w/ Paracetamol. Kin ya tell whut cd I'm lookin' for yit??

Nothing works as well as that familiar voice w/ thet ecksent, like hot melted butter poured over gravel.   My muscles have never been so loose, pain, nausea etc. all goes away.

Said cd even for mp3 was £1,000+ via Amazon UK, for used is this a real price/is someone extracting the Michael?? I thought it'd be cheap cos nobody wanted it now.
Any ideas?? I'm sure some of you Catters might have what I'm looking for & know how to convert it?? I've had problems w/ 2nd-hand cds before.

You need to use the "random play" mode never mix the identical CD twice.

Calcium, Magnisum, Zinc with (salcylic acid, ibuproen, or neupren, but NEVER, NEVER acytaminahem)

Valerium
Holy Basil
Saint John's Wort
Catnip
Skullcap
Poppy
Hops
Pig Weed
a host of other you already know

Use Caffine in the morning and never in between.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle

how did you lose your way? Hot lavender infused baths with foreplay massage followed by good s%@ will probably fix a misaligned libido.   Perhaps, you should try the "Mudcat BOB App" if you do not find satisfaction, return it within 30 days to Joe. 0 for a full refund.

Hi Claire, very sorry to read about your bad health and pain. Sometimes listening to one's favourite music helps, at other times we want new music, or total silence while just thinking of nice things.

Converting a standard Audio CD to MP3 is not very difficult; free software doing it is available. All you need is a computer with a CD-Rom drive. If you cannot find suitable software, ask us, for example our friend "Bill D". As far as I know, the MP3 format itself is patented; the owners used to charge a licence fee from software developers.

Some CDs have secret deviations from the standard, as a copy protection.

Have you tried Ebay? A search for "Rolf Harris book" produced several hundred and "Rolf Harris cd" produced over 50, starting very cheap.

Claire's original post mentioned the price to the CD!

Well, Hitler's paintings cost much more ...

Ebay is not Amazon. Amazon is safer, therefore Ebay often has to be cheaper. Prices of objects for which there is no large market tend to fluctuate considerably; sometimes diligent searching and waiting pays.

(BTW: Grishka with a k is a nickname for a man's name.)

Hiya!! Well, noncey/not, he can't help his voice. Just the way he pronounces certain things. I know a few people who can imitate him perfectly so I'll have to drop hints when relaxation is needed. I'll probably just sag in my wheelchair but I spose I could turn it into an involuntary shudder / pass it off as a spasm. It's my guilty --- I was about to say pleasure but that sounds wrong --- secret. I had a Carer who'd always say to me "you're a wrong 'un!"
