Winsford Soul Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Pre Ordered mine back in June, I think it was , just waiting on release and delivery then will see my old mate Mr Whittle to sign it with a no doubt derogatory remark for me. . Can't wait to read it and relive the memories from the greatest time of my life. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ratt Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I never felt the 'love' when walking into M's like I did being in the big room. This would have been onwards from 75/76, and i have heard plenty of people say just about the same......like ice pick eyes turning towards the door as you entered. Must have been great for those in the click. I always needed a cup of orange squash and a bowl of jelly to calm my overdriven heartbeat after the couple of times I ventured inside.
