I always thought that Barbie was an analogue kinda girl...
Very thoughtful present and I'm sure Marco can always use some more power dressing heels.

I landed what i see as a massive bargin (To Me) 47 early 70's Popular Hi-Fi & Hi-Fi Answers magazines for just over a tenner. Ive been trying desperately to re locate my complete sets of various Audio magazines from 1967-1973 that i lost years ago, which is turning out to be an expensive exersize! Im fussy about condition generally but with magazines beggars can't be choosers..

Gosh Andr'e, I must have read every one of those when I was young. My newsagent got them all in especially.
