Wet but happy...

Just back from the Meadows Festival. Got thoroughly soaked, but came back with some good stuff. Having just decided younger daughter would benefit from a larger bike we found one in her favourite colour, mechanically good, for £20 which is far less than it was worth for parts alone. Anyone who wants a 20" wheeled mountainbike, in good condition & perfect working order (suit age 5 to 10) can make us an offer.

I also suffered temptation at the record stall, cruelly enhanced by calum pulling things out of the trays I wasn't looking in. So I now have Splodgeness Abounds' Simon Templar (with 2 pints etc on the b side), Toy Dolls' Nellie the Elephant, The Dickies' Banana Splits (on yellow vinyl), Undertones' My Perfect Cousin & Squeeze's Cool for Cats (on pink vinyl!) all for a tenner. So I'm a happy bunny!

I really have lost the true value of money! All those 'original' records for ten quid! wow. Classics of our time. Mind you your children probably think you're crazy buying old fashioned/obscelete records :)

Well they liked Nellie the Elephant & The Banana Splits. They are oddly fascinated by the old technology! Younger daughter really didn't get Two Pints of Lager & A Packet of Crisps though.....
