"Giz a couple a Black Bombers mate!"

"Ooh! I'd like a barb or two!"

"The squad were in on Saturday!"

Got any gear mate?

...like a fecking baby btw....2% on me I Pad....see you later lads ;)

The back end of this record still has the power to make me cry...yes...I am still in the pub ;)

It's a boot

...and I still think it's worth every penny.

Don't you fucking dare bite Jocko ;) Labeat do your homework about who you're speaking to before you throw your hand in.

Exactly. It's having the nous to present music to its best. Well in.

You don't know what you're talking about.

You don't owe it to them, you just couldn't for shame do anything else Kev haha ;)

Technics decks, Trackmaster stylus, Allen & heath mixer and Powered Yamaha speakers...never play on shite ;)

After re reading that I now don't do an OVO night in Warrington ;)

I play an OVO night in Warrington, which means absolutely feck all to 97% of the people I play to....actually I'll not lie I've just bought a Bobby Valentin boot which I intend to play in the bar, after being reminded of it on the Oddfellows thread but that's about it for boots? OVO is your choice, you do it for you. There are young lads that play in the same bar that have it in them too, they listen for themselves to stuff they haven't heard and purchase original vinyl....their circle of friends aren't going to give them any awards for buying orig vinyl....but they do..which is great. There are other lads in town that buy boots/represses etc and have no qualms About playing them....and neither have I....it's their choice and as I say 97% of the people they play to couldn't give a toss. Stop asking for plaudits for being cool enough to buy original vinyl...we all know the script, it should be about your values, no one else's...and anyway virtually no one in the real world gives a flying feck.

Only pulling yer leg Geoff

Love to hear the Fannie Crocker version of TOD and I actually prefer that Stanley Mitchell title to the proper one

Thanks for posting...got lost in it at times, was back there in spells. I'm with Len, wonderful to see again but am left with a sadness too. Miss the scene as it was/ should have stayed - immortal.

Pmed you mate

I used to run the Gerard's little record shop in la village after I left Cully High Dave...I wish I could get back there for those racks of not in fashion sixties 7's that used to be in there haha...5 for a quid..all the bits I picked up out of it as a kid came round eventually...the Caesers, Johnny Barnes, Shep etc...not at all fashionable back then but I dread to think what else was in there ;)

You do Dave, I bought records from you at your gaff...near Twiss Green Lane if I remember correctly. I have asked you before if you remember but you never replied mate ;)

When did you live in Cully mate? I went to school there, my old stamping ground.

M's

That is truly crackers.
