  1. I wasn't going to do it my plucked up the nerve because Christiane wanted to go and I did want to see the top where that James Bond film was made.
  2. In the cable car heading for the top of the Schildhorn and Pia Gloria. The view when you get there.
  3. I ask £2.70 signed for 1st class, with 2nd record free then only 0.50p per record thereafter. I've have had some real humdingers over the years. One bloke wanted £7.00 for a £10.50 record, when I asked why so high he replied "packing materials, my time, fuel for car to post office, tape, labelling and passing on of tracking number"....... Perhaps best was a person who agreed I could go and collect item or have it shipped for £20.00 (wasn't a record) I bought it and asked to come and collect (3 miles from my older brother) he said he'd reduce "shipping costs" by £8.00 to £12.00, I told him to stuff it.
  4. Thee persoon who bought the Chalfontes must have absolutely no idea wat values are. It also means that were other people bidding over 300 quid too
  5. Saw those Neal, the issue looks a bit bootish anyway now sorted, thanks for info
  6. Oh sorry must have been the Serrano ham I had for lunch
  7. You can't compare with the Frank Wilson, besides there were more things involved in that sale. You can however compare with Don Gardner, Larry Clinton, Del-larks, et al, not many people who own them got to be well known on the scene like Kenny did.
  8. If the bloke bought it to DJ with, first very risky being on styrene we all know how fragile they can be and secondly and more important is that economically it doesn't make sense, you'd have to play it as a DJ every night for about 3.5 years !!
  9. Some great tracks on that album, "Feels like fire" "Helpless" "Stay in my lonely arms" "I'm grateful" come to think about it there's not a duffer on it
  10. I tried finding it, looks like it's gone ? https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02cppvw
  11. An original, issue or demo, decent condition-ish. Thanks.
  12. No matter how great a record is I would have a tough time parting with that kind of money, even if I was a millionaire. Talking to a ex-collector/seller who said, and he was right, "it's a never ending thing, where do you stop ? you just can't own every rare/great record unless you are a millionaire" I have to say I would have thought that the amount of buyers who want to pay over £5.000 for a record must be a diminishing number as people get older other priorities rear their head and owning £50 -100.000+ of vinyl doesn't seem such a good idea.
  13. When I'm on the NY subway always think I'm in a movie, expecting Al Pacino, Crocodile Dundee or somesuchlike to be sitting next to me
  14. This instructional video is pretty neat.
  15. Thanks Mark (I think ) just checked, I used a Stanton DJ Pro 500AL, the booklet says the tracking force is 2 to 5 grams. I guess I'd better go and learn up on what that all means and how I should set my decks up proper like. Right, be back in about 2 years then !!
  16. I've never really known what that anti-skate thing does
  17. With Ebay prices as they are I would put them on there. Looks like buyers are back with a vengeance.
  18. With nothing on TV Christiane started looking through local freebie newpapers and saw an advert for 3 days QM2, Hamburg to Southampton for £250.00 each. Leaving Hamburg the locals lined up the waterside to waive the vessel off, very moving (pardon the pun).
  19. France turned up quite a lot of good EPs
  20. Germany Gotta love those pic sleeves : France - demo
  21. Pete I always thought once in the 70 and then again in the 90s. The 70s one looking more like the original.
  22. Agree, for sure a sellers market right now.
  23. Booted by 2 different people.
  24. We took our holidays to Wengen this summer. Had a 7 day train, much of it steam, journey around the area, including Pia Gloria
