Hi Guys,
Fresh from a session listening to some top vinyl with Nick and Marco today I have to finish the compo as time is marching on. I have to say the standard of vinyl spinners is stunning and the photography is quite good too..![]()
The winning photo is above, simple but effective and black and white to boot, pity the winner is gonna cost me in spondooliks for postage abroad
On that very subject the 2nd prize is ERNEST, oh! and guess where he lives!
The rest were hard to choose but it's only a bit of fun so not too serious if you did not win I hope, there is always the £166 million euro lottery to go for next week!
3rd Gromit
4th Big Vern
5th KCC123
6th Preston Chip Fryer
7th The Grand Wazoo
8th Jac Hawk
9th Alfie 2902
As there were 9 prizes I think it is best to allow the winner to choose what he wants and post his decision in this thread then NO.2 can pick and so on, that way I don't award someone a prize they don't want or need. Please pm your address as well.
Prize List:-
1. Blue Horizon Record Mat
2. 20 LP Inner Sleeves
3. Bottle of Record Cleaning Fluid
4. Gold Plated HDMI Cable 2 Metres
