    There must be a lot of Shazamming going on because some people seem to be permanently glued to their mobile phones at soul nights.

    It's the so called "returnees" who spent 5 minutes on the scene in the '70s, didn't witness how things have evolved over the best part of two decades, then buy into the "Way of Life" being peddled by those looking to cash in on this renewed interest, that can be classed as divs.

    I've tried them. They sound rubbish.....

    Just progress I suppose. I hear there are portable telephones that can take pictures now.

    I've enjoyed myself more at some nights when there's only been a few dozen people in than at some places with hundreds of attendees.

    I think we all wised up pretty quickly back then. Trouble is, some of these latter day divs don't know any better. They're surrounded by like minded divs, probably attended the same northern soul dance lessons, buy their uniform from the same online outfitter, and all listen to the same limited playlist. Like the saying goes, there's no div like an old div.

    Extract from the Urban Dictionary: Actually originates from prison slang in the UK. A job often given to the lowest inmates was to put cardboard dividers into boxes. Someone given this job was a 'divider' or a 'div'. Now used as an insult to those who display stupidity. In the Lexicon of Northern Soul, it appears between "digging" and "DJ".

    No talc on the dance floor. No sleep till breakfast. Nobody But Me. No regrets.

    Last nights at the Casino were like trains. Don't worry if you miss one, another one will be announced shortly.

    I"ve got a vision of Mrs Woods on the dance floor, spinning around in a circle skirt.

    In my personal experience, attending venues from the late '70s through to the late '90s, it seemed like you were surrounded by your peers, then suddenly a much older crowd appeared in the '00s, and the last few years has seen a much younger clientele coming onto the scene. This has led to as much as a 50 year age gap between the youngest and oldest attendees at some venues. It doesn't seem to be a problem, with everybody on board for the love of the music, so I reckon it's a case of carry on regardless, as long as you're still up to it.

    So the wire brush and Dettol is best avoided?

    Or what your mother said....."Do as I say, not as I do".

    He's probably from the Serious Accident Investigation Unit.

    I would argue that the term "bootleg" is more about the intended use of the copy, than the copy itself. If you made a vinyl copy of an acetate purely for your own use, in order to preserve the original acetate, I wouldn't call that a bootleg. If on the other hand you made a vinyl copy, or multiple copies for financial gain, then I would class that as bootlegging.
