Also I need to fix my turntable, but it needs a new belt and capacitor, so in the interim I got this, the most '80s turntable ever

I mean, linear tracking!

Doesn't play 7" or 12" records, instead it plays 17cm and 30cm records

Alas, I need a power cable
A turntable from the '80s. It is silver, has lots of plastic and has big silver buttons '80s AF

I just consulted the rather dapper J T Salmon's work and was about to say something similar

So instead, here is why I state he's rather dapper, from the blurb
A black and white portrait of J T Salmon, who is radiating cheer He's wearing some sort of boldly striped suit, but being in black and white, it merely looks stripey, each stripe probably 3cm wide and the black stripe has some pattern He has a bowtie, which is usually unforgivable but as it is clearly paisley and matched with his suit, kudos to him Underneath is the first part of his biography THE AUTHOR Professor J. T. Salmon DSc, MSc (Hons), FRSNZ, FRES, FPRS, was educated at Welling College and at Victoria University of Wellington, where he is now Emeritus Professor of Zoology. He has travelled extensively overseas, was a Nuffield Travelling Fellow in Natural Sciences in 1950-51, and in 1958 held a Carnegie Foundation Travelling Fellowship.

I was watching Happy Valley and couldn't put my finger on who Tommy Lee Royce reminded me of

Then in such an #NZPol way, Sam hit me
On the left is the psychopathic character Tommy Lee Royce On the right is the NZ MP Sam "Bed Legs" Uffindel They look quite similar

Had a lovely chat with this big boi this morning. Of interest, this individual has been tagged and so a bit of human contact - probably why I could get close and photo with an old non-tele and manual lens

The other day I saw him talking to a tennis ball

Come on, we know he likes putting in the legwork
Sam 'Dipshit' Uffindel, the smarmy looking man, sits next to the sea by a marina He's come off a hard night of putting the legwork in as can be seen by the bedleg he's holding, expertly photoedited into the image He's about to head off to the pub to get lagered before going to his flat to terrorise his female flatmate Afterwards he'll pin a g-string to the wall as a mark of his conquest He need not worry, because his boss has no spine to bring him be accountable and Tauranga will vote him back anyway
