About bringing people in good mood ... YT gave me recently these amazing bagpipe guys (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amJ_WLmOKS0). One of the track comments was "... you can't make people headbang with a bagpipe...", but it works, at least for me ,
Cheers,

I may have seen them live this last summer...
I know a friend saw them live at Keltfest and they'd be at Castlefest and she said we totally had to check them out, but I can't remember if they actually played on the day we went.
Probably not because I think I would've remembered, but maybe I just don't remember remembering
Cool stuff though!

I probably should've heard of this guy, but I haven't.
The name Buzzcocks rings a bell though.

Has anyone here started using it? Any thoughts on it?

Butterflies have used it for ages, and it seems to work fine for them.

Yes, have been for some time. Love the documentation and how everything is a widget and customizable. The only issue I am facing is that I have a Windows system and cannot work on the testing of an iOS application. So, if you are working on a Mac, it's best for you.

To be honest I only got the dolphin part that and my extensive self research on the effects of endorphin release lead me to the answer.

That was a nice clue but a tad too easy I find it difficult to strike a balance doing these ( and pretty much everything else I do 😁 )

Yeah, but I thought an easy one for Friday (and the reboot).

East and North bidirectional? Taking literal licence a bit far there ...

I like this part because although it is all the definition of the answer, it could easily be take that "reduce" means to shorten another word and "sensation of pain" is the definition.
Which could have made for a nice tricky clue if the "Whares", I mean... "Dorphins" part wasn't so obvious.

Yes, but I wanted a nice simple TFIFriday clue!

By convention (Indie and Grauniad anyway) crosswords should be relatively easy on Mondays, progressing in difficulty through the week.

Are you referring to the eye or the full Independent ?

Yes, I know that I should call the print version "The i" these days - it just looks and sounds so daft, though!
I suspect that the online version (the actual Indie) still does a similar thing.

Oh so the full Independent is no longer available as a dead tree ?

Yes, it went online-only a couple of years back - which I think is a pity as it was the only UK paper that I ever really cared for.
