New release with a modern Northern sound
Thanks for the update, we have been talking about this release in the New Release topic since mid July , when other suppliers apparently via a leak in info , where taking pre - orders , seems strange that Daptone UK where only selling or promoting from today ? Mine arrived from Juno on Tuesday, & from what info I'm able to collect others may have had their copies earlier. As you say , totally agree possibly a future Northern Fave , depending on how many copies are available etc etc .

Victoria plums- best crop ever - yummy!
We planted a bit of an orchard 7yrs ago in the back garden , 3 x apples trees , 1 x pear tree , 2 x plum trees , 2 x olive trees , 2 x gooseberry bushes , hazel nut & a walnut tree , but the star of the show this year is the Passion fruit on the Passion flower climber out the front .

Show Us Your Great Photos 2024/5
A couple of slightly quickly taken shot's on my phone , of the most famous train the Flying Scotsman , on its way to Bridgnorth on the Severn Valley Railway , which passes by the top of our garden ( I should invest in a decent camera really ) great to see the whole line back open again.

Was out in Kidderminster yesterday and had to pop into Poundland, and came across these .200mm x .200mm x .200mm storage / filing , material folding absolutely perfect for vinyl storage boxes ? . If your shelving is .210mm spacing they've perfect for storing , labels or artists , hold approximately 75 records with all sorts of sleeves & poly covers . Only £1.25 each . I know it's Poundland & they've £1.25 , still good value .

Sleeve every time , writing on record labels , vinyl vandalism & shouldn't be encouraged, & definitely not dedicated to the current owner , be it sleeve or label ..

New DeRobert & the Half-Truths track.
Definitely a very good new release & a pleasant change to the norm , slow , ballad , type new release that everybody was getting a little bit bored with , not sure about the Soul Notes comparison, but definitely similar to something ? , Thanks for the heads up Mal , mines ordered too .

Football - Topic
Agree with Chalky & Rick , can not understand why they don't pick a country or countries, that all the players are comfortable with playing in the summer , after a very competitive league season , it's not about the football simple . This tournament could & should of been the best of the best but unfortunately FIFA ,,,,,

Movies and Tv
We watched this a couple of weeks ago , highly recommended. The Six Triple Eight , it's an untold story ( personally my type of war films ) about how a black woman Battalion of 855 , joined the war effort to fix a 3 year backlog of undelivered mail . Faced with discrimination, racism , & war torn conditions, they sort over 17 million pieces of mail , ahead of schedule. Netflix . 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion , I think was their real name
