Hi Tim,
Sorry to butt in, but have you decided yet what you're doing about your records?

I posted on the Weymouth Record Shop thread (I think?). But I plan to sell them as a bundle or to whoever by talking them to Scalford next year..... AoS members will get first choice.
There's less than 100, not sure as I have not counted them yet, but all in minty nick as I'm a bit anal like that and not been played for 20 years. I may do a list for 'special' people here(and yes Marco, you have always been special
)
Some people have no idea what they're doing and a lot of them are really good at it.

Tindersticks are out on tour as a band again, they're doing a split show, part one is the film scores they've done, part 2 apparently a gig...I do hope part 2 is significantly longer than part 1, although I do enjoy some of their film scores
