"Convinced? Some of Freddie's friends, like singer Peter Straker and Kenny Everett's widow Lee, apparently are. "If an unknown girl rings up friends of a pop star who's died and says she's speaking to him," Melina says, "the natural reaction would be to slam the phone down. If there was constant pestering, then they'd bring the lawyers in. That didn't happen. I have made good relationships with people who knew Freddie, and certain ones have been very open-minded and receptive."

how to get inno pi DAC hat working

 I'm using a headless raspberry pi

firstly type: alsamixer and press f6 - you will see the hat is not there.

enable the hardware..

sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt

enter

dtoverlay=allo-boss-dac-pcm512x-audio

(from How to set up Allo BOSS DAC hat for your Headless Raspberry Pi | How To Hi-Fi)

reboot..

check your devices..
aplay -l

you can see here that deivce is card 1, device 0

card 1: BossDAC [BossDAC], device 0: Boss DAC HiFi [Master] pcm512x-hifi-0 [Boss DAC HiFi [Master] pcm512x-hifi-0]

now we make it default

sudo nano /etc/asound.conf

then enter

pcm.!default { type hw card 1 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 }

sudo reboot

sudo raspi-config

system, audio, 1 BossDAC

The origin of ecky thump [answered]

 There are plenty of guesses on the internet about where the phrase ecky thump comes from.

As I am a Brit not from southern england, I will break it down for you.

Eck E Thump

Heck ( hell or exclaimation ) ‘e ( He ) Thump ( punch )

Fuck that hurt

Ouch he punches

A similar phrase might be thats gotta hurt or that smarts.

Basically a humorous exclamation of shock or awe.

Intergenerational Trauma and copying

 The mamallian brain is a copying machine.

This means that victims of abuse can become abusers, not through their fault, but because they were taught it by their experience.

How to share an SMS text message with multiple people [answered]

I need multiple people in the office to see texts coming in, so I use the SMS Forwarding app from Prepario! 

Let's say you have a shared bank account and you need to enter a SMS verification. If the other party isn't near by, you have to wait for them to message you with the code.

How this works is that we issue you a new number, you use this new number with your bank and then when your bank messages you, both parties get the message.

Also useful for power of attourney etc. when you need to care for a loved one.

Setup fee: £250 one off
Ongoing costs: 0.01p per message and £0.9 for the new mobile number.
