    They appear to be still there at the Red Rocks end of the beach, which is a bit further along from my photo. This might interest you https://www.cheshirewildlifetrust.org.uk/news/2014/01/29/new-home-natterjacks-wirral Kev

    Walked along the edge of the sandhills on Saturday between West Kirby and Hoylake. Taken on the phone, but you can see in the middle distance just how much the estuary has silted up. They used to rake it with a tractor every week which kept it like a typical beach but that was 20 yrs ago probably. Kev

    Hi Chris, Am I right in thinking that the Thelma Houston track is only on the UK release of her Mowest Album? Kev

    Steve, I keep thinking about something like that, I'm using a Nikon D7100 with a135 F2 AF DC prime lens and and an 18-200 F3.5 zoom, but I'm mainly taking landscapes and my daughters horse riding. It's not a full frame sensor so it's 1.5 times the focal length. Kev

    Just to prove that it was fantastic weather most of the time. Pier at Semaphore, Adelaide.

    Having spent Christmas in Australia I thought I would be posting a photo of something in brilliant sunshine. I even took my SLR with me, but the photo I was the most pleased with was taken on my mobile. It was taken in Melbourne under a bridge, where we had to take shelter from a thunderstorm. Kev

    Carl Carlton's was the first version I ever heard and bought as a new release and I always thought that to be the first.

    I heard it a couple of years ago. The whole album seemed to have slipped under the radar I completely missed it at the time of it's release. Kev

    Cracking shots. We had a flock of Fieldfares and Redwings together in our garden here on the Wirral a few years back when it was really cold. Anyone seen any of those this year

    This must have been touted around quite a bit in the 70's "You can't stop a man in love" written by Terry Woodford and George Soule and in most versions, produced or arranged by Terry Woodford and Clayton Ivey These are the ones I know of Carl Carlton Reuben Howell Bobby Womack The Supremes (You can't stop a girl in love) The Temptations Wilson Pickett Anymore?

    Impressions - People get ready Curtis Mayfield - People get ready

    It's Gloria (Towanda) Barnes singing on the Ohio Players version in any event. So definitely doesn't count.

    High Keyes - Living a Lie Troy Keyes - I was living a lie, although they both sound the same to me Kev

    Only the album version has this intro, but the best version of this much covered track Kev

    I heard this version of Amy Stewart - "Friends" in a bar in Greece, back in 1984 I think?, and it took me years to track it down. I was convinced it was Earl Klugh playing acoustic guitar at 2mins 50 secs and Ramsey Lewis playing the long piano break after it at 3mins 20 sec, so spent ages trying to source it without the use of internet, looking for a connection. Then Robbie Vincent did me a favour and played it on his show and it turned out to be Mike Francis. Although having never seen any info on it I have no idea who the musicians are. The best version of this by a country mile Kev

    Barbara West - Congratulations Baby. Not my favourite by any means. Sounds like an out of tune piano or an old music hall piano Kev

    There's this one which I liked at the time of its release Kev

    I liked this bit in the article " But you also still have the 65-year-old man who smells of weed who will always come into a record shop, stand around and then ask for something you haven’t got, and then leave. So it hasn’t changed completely.” Kev

    Anyone got a VG+ or better please pm me with price. I now have one thanks Thanks Kev

    Great shot! Kev

    Can't leave this out

    Probably worth picking this album up for Jimmy Hughes alone. I was also going to mention Mel & Tim - Free for All, Major Lance - "Story of my life" and "I wanna make up", William Bell - "Why is the wine Sweeter", Luther Ingram - Home don't seem like a home", Emotions - Stealing love. Would be great to go to a Stax only night out Kev

    I didn't discover this until a few years ago. I just love all the strings and the way Mavis comes in for her first verse. One of my all time favourite Stax tracks Kev

    Thanks Steve, I could do with some of that memory foam in my head. Kev
