Both nice records. Always assumed BK was album only as I've never seen a 45. Peter

It wasn't lost on me Pete - I thought it was funny and responded accordingly. P

Hi Ste Yep, all good here buddy. Just winding down with Gordon(s)! Thanks for the advice mate I'll look into it. I do need a new hobby. Take care mate. Peter

Ok Pete. As I've mentioned before I had quite a few records stolen years ago and then lost heart and sold a load more. I then lost some in a gas explosion and others were covered in debris and dust. My nickname is Lucky. I have some bits left and have recently found my "dirty box" which has some other nice bits from the explosion in - forgot I had em. I've been buying bits and bobs recently although nothing expensive, including albums. My love these days is 70's and some of the more down tempo 60's. Nowt on a wall or in anything showy. As I say I have a load of stuff just chucked in a box - some with no sleeves on. I'm in the process of geting some shelving done - if I can keep my ass motivated! Peter

No

Mm, ain't too shabby either. Peter

Ay up Dave I didn't know that. I'll go and check that out. Peter

The Nottingham Peregrine chicks are getting their wings! Just captured this live. Peter

Spotted a House Martin on my wall at home this morning - had to check as I wasn't sure. Pretty exciting. http://www.rspb.org.uk/community/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-88-34/1374.house-martin.jpg Peter

No probs mate. I keep forgetting your name is Pete! Peter

I agree entirely Roburt. I posted earlier that his career had been unusual. I guess he must have had a bit of money for him to have been able to purchase the Cold Duck night club. Very strange. Peter

They are very much in decline mate - a 70% reduction in the last 30 years. Peter

Nice one Gogs. This one is the spitting image of Little Smith. I had him for 18 years and lost him three years ago. Bought a tear to my eye has that. Peter

OOps!

He looks like a nice pal to go walking with Pete. Peter

I think I have a good eye for a photograph it's getting to grips with all the kit that puts me off. Even down to knowing what to buy etc. Perhaps I need to invest a little time in taking a look at the whole caboodle. Cheers matey. Peter

Beautiful Pete. We have quite a few breeding pairs of swans on the Grantham canal nearby. Always have to steel yourself walking past the parents if they are on the toe path with the cygnets! They can be quite intimidating - which is good. Lovely creatures. It's something special watching the young learn to fly and have seen many a take off and landing error! Peter

Hi Davie I keep thinking that I would like to take up photography as a hobby. I'm not very good with technology though and have very little patience in terms of reading manuals and instructions - I just want to go! It all seems very complicated to me. Do you think I should look out for a night school class or something like that? Peter

These are a bit better - just took them. The female sure is pretty! Peter

Wow! That's beautiful Davie. Peter

Here's a couple of pics I've just captured from our Nottingham Peregrine Web Cam - see other thread. The first one is of the nest with the female on the ledge over looking the city. This one is a not too brilliant one of the chicks nearing three weeks old. I'll get a better one tomorrow. Peter

Yep, we have lots in our garden at work now. Zipping past, chirping and chasing each other! Peter

Wow! They're amazing Ste. Hope the nest box is a fruitful - or chickfull, this year. Peter

Hi Rich Richard Fields bought a cabaret called the Cold Duck Music Lounge in San Francisco. He had a very unusual career. I bought his 1981 album featuring the "I like your loving" record which I posted earlier which is how I first learned of him. I thought he was much younger than he was. He died quite young of a stroke. Peter

Hi Ian Mm, it ain't a cheapy. Just seen one on Discogs for £125. Peter
