Happy Feet

Unless someone connected to the the clear out company realised what they where clearing out was historical , it's a possibility

The brilliant comedy series new to Sky Max , previously shown on HBO , " Hacks " about a female stand up comedian based in Las Vegas , Series 1, episode 1 a few bars & then in episode 2 , a much longer portion of I'm sure , Popcorn Wylie " Going To A Happening" , long way from Detroit but great to hear . Had a few days off this week , not feeling great , so binge watching & feet up , very funny so far .

Don't want to sound like a smart arse , but your writing in English is perfect and a lot better than quite a few on here , including myself , have not seen any of your posts edited. I have friends who will only stay in contact via writing a letter, in the old fashioned way , no internet or telephone calls , in 2025 there is still a very good postal service . So why not give it a go , record delivery, 48 hrs etc , nothing to lose & keep a copy of the letter complete with all references etc . With today's method of contacting everyone expects an instant response , I have pre- ordered and had to wait on occasion up to 12 weeks , albeit not for thousands of pounds worth of records , I can understand you're concerns , but your winding yourself up and if you feel you can't give John a ring , I'd be surprised if someone working with John couldn't understand you , otherwise try a letter .

Not good , did the marker pen come off ? Shiny label or matt ? How long was the dry marker pen left on , I don't allow it to dry , remove whilst still wet . The last one I did was a UK Action copy of Bobby Williams, reduced in price substantially due to black marker pen , looks like a completely different copy now ,and no label damage or loss of colour .

To be honest Peter , lots of record dealers both on here and Ebay have reduced their prices not all 50% , but maybe 20 to 25% , so although I didn't order anything from John , I know I've saved a few pounds and am more than happy , there has definitely been a downturn in prices this month . Had an email this morning from a well known seller , that has slashed some of his sales ( albeit new releases from the last couple of years ) to as little as £3.

Wasn't there a silly rumour at the time , that the Pier actually sunk deeper into the sand during each Allnighter , due to the rather energetic dancing

Having listened to Timmy's selections , and his mixed & eclectic choices of tunes he liked , soulful deep & meaningful , I'd like to share my last 3 plays dedicated to the memory of Timmy , I ended tonights session with . Otis Leavill, I love You , Atlantic UK , The Dramatics , I Cried All The Way Home , ABC UK Freddie Scott , Where Doe's Love Go , Coolpix , I hope he would approve

I'm teasing , humour is a great pain reliever , unless you're suffering with a couple of broken ribs , ouch

A bit harsh , but very true

Hi Mick , I'm now 67 & like most people of this age I to suffer from 2 life changing diseases , medication helps , but no cure , not an immediate sentence to death as surgery if required is available plus a very painful problem with my spine , annual nerve pain blocker , & lots of daily meds , Diazapam, Pregabilin, Amitriptyline. Just got to get on with daily life & now work part time in the building trade . I was lucky found Northern Soul via youth clubs , then onto Alnighters, VaVa's , Wigan , Sheffield, Yate etc etc the list is endless, stopping in 93 to concentrate on bringing up a family , & work commitments very busy with work & living a normal family life style . Dipped my toe back into the scene Albrighton, Kettering, Warwick back in the early 20s but never really committed, lots of other hobbies by now . Nowadays still collecting vinyl and CDs & the love of the music has never wained , 1 or 2 nights a week in the man cave a few beers & the music, wether a 60s classic or a brand new release and the memories come flooding back . During Lockdown The Bury Virtual Alnighters served as an essential means of contact , not just for people still on the scene but also those people, older , poorly , carers , anybody who loves Northern Soul , That I believe is a way forward for the older population, who can't get out & about , a fortnightly or monthly soul night via the internet with the means to communicate, djs or guests picking the sets , but for some reason there seems to be an over whelming disapproval for this kind of event to be aired , as it may reduce numbers attending live venues . Which I think is a complete load of nonsense, & just because we're old an in a lot of cases too poorly to get out & about we should not be allowed to carry on listening to Northern Soul , communicating with old & new friends & mates ,in the comfort of your own home , yes mixcloud & the odd radio shows during the week , buts it's the comaradery we need , I've just had an upgrade on a new set of hearing aids , and the music has never sounded better.

Let's hope so , it's got appeal , I'd buy it

If anyone can understand this lot , as it says it's supposedly for a fairer outcome I think ? https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/0268-12157d69ce2d-9f011c70f6fa-1000--new-format-for-champions-league-post-2024-everything-you-ne/

EUFA as always too much meddling , causing confusion , I don't think they themselves know either

An insight & wonderful selection of tunes that Timmy loved so much , thank you Hans

Only new him through Soul Source since I joined in 2020 , his knowledge and advice not just on music , but hifi and how to set it up properly will definitely be missed for sure , RIP Tim sincere condolences to family & friends .
