I get mine from Mint Sleeves. They are crystal clear and have a sealable pocket for the cover. I think they're supplied by Vinyl Storage Solutions.

I got to know @davidbowiereal.bsky.social a little. The man who changed my life on the 15th June 1972. David recorded a msg for the last R1 show @markradcliffe.bsky.social & I did in 2004. So honoured. Imagine then finding out his script for it is in the V+A. 💥 Thanks @julianstockton.bsky.social ❤️

Whilst I'm always looking to buy record collections, at the moment it's a priority!

Do you know anyone looking to shift their collection, or perhaps are you embracing a different format... or moving, whatever the reason.

Here's a good one for you. Iain - longwell records - put a couple of records in his 'free to a good home' bin. Someone took them. This week, someone else came into the shop and and sold him a small collection. Included were the very same records from his 'free' bin. He's not amused. 😂😂

Average in my experience. You need a bit of timing to avoid the dreaded drop into the beverage.

Second vote for Ginger Nuts.

I did buy two job lots at the auction. Think I did OK. Got 30 LPs with various additions such as letters and promo stuff. Total paid including fees and postage worked out at £16 per record. I did set a budget and stuck to it. It would be very easy to get carried away.

I still watch it every now and then. For me, it's up there with Spinal Tap. Never gets old.

To my fellow shops and dealers... keep an eye out for these. If you've got a lead, drop me a WhatsApp.

This one. It reminds me of watching Saturday morning kids TV in the 1970s. Brings back lots of memories

Today at work I’m wearing a male version of what Kanye’s wife wore last night at the Grammys.

First time I’ve been to HR before 9am.

Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy.
Please don’t share.

I feel your pain. I’m just getting over Covid. Paracetamol and Ibuprofen are your friends. Keep up your fluids. It does get better. Take care Joel.
