big Guns' Sales List Coming Very Soon - Watch This Space

[Ficklefingers]

Just now going through my 'Main' box - to pull a few things I'd be happy to let go of. Values will range from the low £100's to four-figure price-tags, and will include some extremely 'Select' & 'Choice' rarities..

Needs must, I'm afraid - since having my life (quite literally) turned 'on it's head' in December - and having exhausted all my 'spare' spondoolies over the past four months just to ensure I 'stand still' - it is now imperitive for me to insure I meet (at least) my 'normal' monthly outgoings (mortgage, etc) until the due legal process I have to now go through has run it's course and rulings have been made (hopefully - resolve is achieved..) Unfortunately, the 'right kind' of legal expertise required doesn't come cheap - and they want a serious wedge placed 'on account', hence the neccessity to decide to select 45's from my collection that I WON'T regret, and am quite happy, selling off.

As they say.. 'Brand New Day - SAME OLD SHIT' !!

The list should be ready - and available for general perusal - later this evening so.. WATCH THIS SPACE !!

Fingers..

good luck again john..... but dont sell adam anything, he is well dodgy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

John cant you sell em after you've been on at the attic next month ??

Only joking - all the best

[Ficklefingers]

Adam.. PURLEEEASE !!

Now then, your young daughter - as we both know - is a very observant little thing, and displays advanced intelligence for one of such tender years (obviously takes after her mother then !?! ), so.. might I suggest you just have a little chat with her ?? 'Cos I'm quite confident even SHE will, very quickly, be able to tell you that..

Even plastic surgery would prove useless, in my case, & would not achieve ANYTHING that could possibly be anywhere NEAR realistically constructive for THIS conk !!

Fingers..

[Ficklefingers]

John cant you sell em after you've been on at the attic next month ??

Only joking - all the best

That is the ONE consolation in all this, Steve, in that I'm fortunate to have been in the position whereby I can sell some amazingly choice bits from the collection without any effect, in the slightest, on my DJ sets !! Mainly.. because all the records I play out are CRAP !!

SOOO looking forward to my stint at The ATTIC ...

Anyone got any records they could lend me ?!?

The EXACT SAME words Adam's young daughter (mentioned in the above post..) used when warning me of - the one she calls..

Pete.. that is so very kind of you buddy.. An offer very much appreciated and one that, should I require more success than I'm hoping to achieve from on here, I will very graciously accept.

Sincerest regards and warmest thanks for your, indeed, ALL, of the upluifting (& much needed) moral support from the oodles & oodles of like-minded soulie type peeps - on this wondrous music scene of ours - that have contacted me with their unconditional offers of assistance.. Their kind considerations toward my present dilemma, and the messages of support & encouragement. I am so very humbled by people's generosity and unselfish attitudes to my current situation. I certainly don't feel worthy of it all.

At the end of the day ..'Such is Life' - not that it makes it any easier to deal with - and I am but one amongst THOUSANDS, currently experiencing 'problems. We all have to pay the same bills - mortgage, utilitie, etc. and regardless of the level of income, if it's (say) a fiver that you 'need' but don't have it may just as well be five grand !! The 'mental' anguish is the same for one and all..

Thanx again peeps..

Thanx Soulies..

A quick update - to let everyone know where I'm up to..

I've pulled a total of 30 potential pieces for my 'short list'. Next is to whittle that down to about half, then get it posted up. They are (purpously) '60's' and (at this stage) no 70's/modern is included - this may change over the coming days and dependant upon initial success with my list of fifteen.

First things first, though.. my daughter requires her next intake of calories which requires me to go downstairs to the kitchen & cook her sum fink so - I'll be back soon as..

Thanx

Fingers..
