I'm with Teuchter. Long train or plane journey where someone gets beats or standard white apple headphones out of their bags? I feel instant, intense loathing, and a sinking feeling I am going to be listening to tinny Celine Dion for the next 3 hours.
Those apple headphones should be binned with the packaging.

Basic bud earphones deafen you by letting in so much background noise that you turn the volume up to damaging levels. (According to audiologists.) The safest thing is over-ear headphones or the custom-moulded earphones which fill the bowl of the ear and put the speaker down your ear canal.

But they shouldn't be binned with the packaging. They should be fit for purpose. We should have a campaign to have them banned. The last time I suggested this everyone still seemed determined to blame the people bought them in good faith that they would, you know, do what they are meant to do, rather than the manufacturers.

It looks like Waitrose really is coming (from Time Out this week).

Thanks, but this is no nearer to me than that TK Maxx or Argos. It's raining.

Where can I get them in Brixton?

Regeneration sounds much nicer than vibrant. I love Waitrose.
Edit: The corner of Acre Lane and King's Avenue is the only vacant spot that springs to mind. Failing that, aren't the co-operative council looking to sell of some of their buildings on lower Brixton Hill? Not that the latter would happen any time soon.

RRP £70

RRP £10
But why? The more expensive ones are out of stock anyway so it's a fairly pointless question.

For the record, there's several long threads in the tech forum about headphones:

If it's a choice between JF Grocers and Waitrose i'm backing Waitrose.

There's at least one other thread about supermarkets in Brixton. Your point, Mr Grumpy?
