But this season your UK bank card worked "in" Luxembourg?

Interesting. Unless I access the Swans TV page where I can buy the pass using a foreign IP address I don't get the option to buy. Only when I am using a foreign address does the option appear

Thank you for that. Perhaps Turkey is on my card providers "naughty list". I'll pop round to Uncle Nord's when I get back to Blighty and see if he can help

I am currently in Turkey (really!) and I am trying to purchase the international Swans TV season pass while I'm on a legit foreign IP address. My payment keeps failing. I am using a UK registered credit card which I've always used successfully to purchase Swans TV streams using foreign IP...

Hey Dar, how about giving us a list of celebs who aren't CT fans then? Might be shorter 🤣

Ah yes the quick Google search I did agrees with that. I certainly saw the 1973 one then as they were the support to Mott. But I was convinced "Killer Queen" had charted then as my mates and I knew that we wouldn't hear that one at the gig as the band couldn't reproduce the guitar overdubs at...

But none of us has ever tasted pure water, so it's a "No" from me! (Btw I have tasted Spectroscopic ethanol during my undergrad chemistry years)

Whoosh, thread changes direction......

j123 leave it now, we just got ECB off the water debate and you've pulled his chain again.

We've moved off water now Lis, keep up!😂

May I just say, classic JA thread that started with Live Aid and ended up debating the relative merits of different tap waters! I think we really the season to start now.......

I was in Lyme Regis when Live Aid was on. I recall a beautiful summers day and everywhere I went I could hear the sounds of the event though everyone's open windows. Good times
