There's no rigid rules for displaying your #WeekendSingles. I usually add four images per post as I find it displays nicely, but that's just personal preference.

I picked the LP up on vinyl for 20p (!) when an Our Price in Southampton closed down. I wasn't sure about it at first, but it turned out to be a bit of a grower.

I now have "My Love Is Like A Gift You Can't Return" as an earworm, but that's not necessarily a bad thing 😂

This might ring a bell?

That was pretty much how we moved last time. Sadly, health-wise we're not up to it this time around. Need the professionals in 😞

Likewise until I saw this. Crackles a bit, but I thought "will I ever see another copy?"

Later morphed into a much heavier band, Man.

No worries, my own curiosity got the better of me 😄

Looking at this set of Mud autographs online, it might be genuine?

Interesting oddity! I know some early demo singles were one-sided, maybe one made it into their possession? (They do turn up in the most unexpected places)

Used to get the train up from Eastleigh for a bit of record shopping in Reading many moons ago (when train fares were still reasonable, which tells you how long ago that was). Glad to hear The Sound Machine is still going strong.😎
