I did a few Bretby all niters back in the 90's - I think Chris King and Dave Thorley were promoting them then. I know quite a few different people promoted the venue over the years. Who was running it when it closed Steve? Cheers Peter

In the blink of an eye Steve. The blink of an eye.

Got a well known record spinning round in my head but I can't remember what it is. It's a stunning soul record, male singer, mid tempo. "I love you baby, let me stay with you, I want to spend all my days with you, because I need you, I really need you. You got the world in a jug, baby, the stoppers in your hand, and everybody knows you. Doh! Anyone? Thanks Peter

Mid tempo is the way forward mate.

Well her mates birthday then.

I think it's a stunning soul record T and I hope you get one for your birthday. Peter

Yep been looking for one myself - as both of you to know! Regards Peter

I know I'm a bit slow but..........................

Well here's one. Petre

Yep, super album Dave. Peter

Great stuff. Those seals must have lots of contact with humans. They have a bite worse than a Rottweiler! Has anyone ever been to Donna Nook near Mablethorpe? In November/December and January there is one of the biggest birthing colonies of Grey Seals in Europe. It's an amazing experience. You must know it Sooty - down the road from your old stomping ground. You can see males fighting for dominance - something akin to David Attenborough real wild life. It's even more so amazing as the site is an active RAF bombing range. Peter

Intriguing Sooty - but yer link doesn't work! Peter

Never heard this side Ted. It's the one for me. Peter

I suspect that at least one of them has at least one. Could be totally wrong of course but there are some out there. P

Some one has them Bazza. Nice record. You wrong un! Peter

I'd be happy to chip in. Let me know. Peter

You missed the "c" out! Johnny Manship has one on his site for £75.

It's ok Dave. However it turns out every time I look at it I always think of Little Smith - and that makes me happy or sad depending upon my mood.

I wood concur. P

When Little Smith died my neighbour gave me what was akin to a twig in a bucket. Pretty sure it was a sycamore so I planted that with the thought of keeping it really small like a bonsai. It reached about ten feet tall this year so I recently cut that right back. It's obviously called Smiths Tree - I'll try and take a photo on my phone and see if I can post it up. Reminder to self - must get my arse in gear and sort out a camera. Little Smith was my old cat. I had him for 18 years and he has been the most consistent thing I've ever had in my life. I miss him lots. Peter

Looks like a Bay to me Steve. But I know nowt!

I understand that very well Gary. It really is nasty. Peter

No problem Mick. I think there are some other threads too - but I'll never remember which one's I've linked now! If you go into the Look At Your Box forum you could try another search in there. Great record by the way - easily my favourite Motown track. All the best mate. Peter

Sorry to hear this. Having your house broken into is extremely unpleasant and goes way beyond the loss of anything that is stolen. I've been broken into twice and it leaves a nasty scar I can tell you. I hope you get your records back Gary. All the best. Peter
