motown mini
It does say the winner was presented with a plaque , he may have had it attached perhaps to a light bar , the type for attaching fog lamps , RAC , AA or Mini Club badges . We used to own a few Mini's back in the late 80s upto 2012 , went on loads of rally's , London to Brighton , Newquay , probably all of the Midlands , but I never saw it if there was .

The Scene Is In Safe Hands
This one same era , something for the younger soulies to search for perhaps , whilst it's still available, .50p for now just takes a brave young soul to play it and boom they'll all want a copy , also available on the Spring Label .

Just wish all new & reissued material got the same response Robert , instead of the occasional like , if they're legit of course.

The Scene Is In Safe Hands
Instead of marketing as a Northern Soul dance tutorial , she would probably get more custom as a Northern Soul keep fit guru .

I'm On My Way by Barbara Dane - New Re-Issue
Unfortunately there isn't a picture sleeve , a sleeve yes but only details etc , I think that the advert at the top is simply that , deffo no picture sleeve with my copy , for a limited run and the advert at the top , you would have thought so .

Getting black marker marks off the label?
I can only guess that the felt pen/ black marker that I removed was possibly not a permer marker , and perhaps the length of time the black ink was on the label ? I'm not a scientist but do like to experiment, but would never touch a white label say a demo copy for instance . I can only apologise but it did work for me , unfortunately I haven't a before & after of the Bobby Williams on Action , that I purchased fron Joe Dunlop , but I forward them to Joe , whose response was it looked like a different record , but it was the same , I will dig it out and post .

Anglo American Auction Results 6th March
From the very early days , when we where young , apprentices both in jobs & the Northern Soul scene we all at some time bought boots , reissue's, along side any originals we could afford which where a lot cheaper, long before the internet etc , it's a wonder any youthful types would want to engage with a scene , with the price of records these days , when downloads and boots are so much cheaper . It probably appears to the younger generation that they're not buying a record , but a piece of art from Sotheby's, and they simply can't afford it. Or am I overthinking it , by the way I bought a copy of the reissue because I thought it was legite & £9.99 Inc p+p .

Could it have anything to do with the amount of boots already sold , or reissue's and the younger generation are happier paying a tenner for a copy ?

Prostate cancer
That's the feature regarding the dodgy DIY test kits , only it was a reporter talking about and doing a test , ( probably pre-recorded ) , the point I was trying to make was Tim & others have like myself , had blood test to determine the PSA level by a professional nurse or doctor, results from a Lab ,then a physical examination if required , followed by MRI or biopsy and treatment , do not rely on the DIY kit .

Prostate cancer
I've had tests over the last few years , the physical type but never had a PSA test , but on the way to work yesterday on BBC Hereford & Worcester , there was a feature berating the testing kits & saying that just like the Covid testing kits , the majority give a false reading , their words not mine. It will be on the BBC iplayer if anyone wants to hear it , yesterday's breakfast show , normally Tammi Gooding , but some Guy is covering her slot this week .

New Single - The 7:45s - The Way that I Love You - LRK Records
What's the reaction to the B- side , Too Little Too Late , is it AI or a genuinely written & produced tune , It's definitely worth a listen & aimed at the dancefloor.
