Dear All

Time for one last big list before Christmas I reckon. This is a mixture of never before listed stuff, items not sold off previous lists and now reduced, and some weird and wonderful obscurities including R&B, blues, popcorn and of course Northern Soul.

If anyone wants to hear anything they are quite welcome to ring me (before 7pm please J

I've still got a lot of stuff yet to arrive so I may yet do a list next week but it's doubtful. There's definitely a George Kirby on the way so if anyone wants that, it'll be 250 quid.

Thanks to everyone for being so supportive this year, especially at the beginning of the year, it looked like curtains but now everything seems to be back to normal. Couldn't have done it without the help of people like ALAN, GORDON, JAMIE, DAVID, IAN, MARK, WINSTON, TERRY, ANDY, SANDY, NORMAN, PETE, JEZ, ANDY, STEVE, ANDY, PAUL, JOHN, PETER, DAVID, DENISE, STEVE and many many many more, so sorry that I can't remember everyone off the top of my head but you know who you are and how much it was apperciated - thanks again.
