Bercow is the “speaker” of the “house” and you are looking for “speakers” for your “house”

Can’t you see the irony here!

B Richard Onslow, 1st Baron Onslow PC (23 June 1654 – 5 December 1717), known as Sir Richard Onslow, 2nd Baronet from 1688 until 1716, was a British Whig politician who sat in the English and British House of Commons from 1679 to 1715. He was Speaker of the House of Commons from 1708 to 1710 and Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1714 to 1715. Onslow was a very unpopular figure amongst members of both political parties, particularly during his time as Speaker. He was extremely pedantic and showed an absolute devotion to principle, as a result he was given the nickname “Stiff Dick”

headphone chat is welcome, what “cans” are you “styling”

Might start saying “I love jacking it” and it’ll be about headphone jacks instead of masturbation

Headphones Sennheiser HD25 SPII. Had them since 2011 and they’re boss. Only had to replace the cable once. Huge VFM.

Speakers are some Cambridge Audio ones from the mid 70s, permanently borrowed from my father in law. They’re good, for what I need.

Mainly use a Bose Soundlink mini 2 around the house though. That thing is amazing.
