I guess the coolest mailer I've ever been sent! Doubtless prohibitively expensive, but where do you get these?!

It was an open mic, line up drifting per piece, rather than pre-set bands. Not the most amazing music ever, but wonderful to see 15 mins from my village, and quite a lovely little atmosphere as well.

Shut Up, Little Man! comic: Guys record drunks arguing creatively, release tapes, much hilarity. Prob seen panels from these on doc/online, & there might be more than 1 comic now. Suspect it was a bit expensive to order from US, & feel those guys r milkin it a bit now (see doc), but would like 2c...

Albert Goldman's Disco: Did a scandalous book on Elvis that most people said he just made up. Did one on disco as well. It is available second hand, but very expensive. THINK there might be photos in it, & MIGHT be more than one ed, but never seen at a reasonable price...

The last times I have put up my uberwants list, I have had digital copies sent to me of things I've wanted for years.

My music collection is big & my wants similar, & the remaining films I only have 2 open my wallet 4, so I thought I'd concentrate on the v small BOOKS/zines list & add some info...

Even in my home village, I would imagine they do understand the implication, but certainly still a striking name for the local craft group

Wow, thanks Dyfed-Powys Police, that should help me find the rave...Top one, nice one, get sorted!

The wibbly wobbly world of Discogs, where right is wrong and wrong is right. Vague idea still in my head that some guys on there may just be there for something other than the music itself.

Define "everyone", BBC News website nightshift...Preferably before the copy editor arrives in the morning and changes the headline, as usual.

Oh, & my Uber-wants list. This is 2 years old but hasn't changed (other than now I have a PDF of Action, but would still LOVE a hard copy)

And props also to my brother in law, who has been diligently coming over from Suffolk on a reg to get my folks' house shipshape, and most notably to install my pride & joy down here (although it is a bit chilly in there at the mo), The Shed. Not taken any photos for a while, but Sep one attached.

The hauntologists will be proud of me...watching this encyclopaedic DVD collection, a true public service, from the archive of the late Simon Morris.
