    Record Store Day 2025

    As @Joe Mac said, sounds like the UK got more. This is a tiny little shop that you have to walk through a slightly larger bookshop to get to. They only had a few crates of RSD items but a few of the Oasis sets for around the £80 mark if im remembering correctly.

    Record Store Day 2025

    I didnt participate in RSD this year but yesterday I popped into a book shop that has a small record room at the back of it that stocked some RSD items. They had a few copies of the Oasis box set and this was late yesterday afternoon. Was that one that's tricky to find?

    Book 9: The Home Invaders: Confessions Of A Cat Burglar by Frank Hohimer (‎Chicago Review Press, 1975) I watched "Thief" (starring James Caan) a few weeks ago and the closing credits caught my eye when it stated it was based on a book. Turns out the book is "The Home Invaders: Confessions Of A...

    Next up in my Wes Anderson run is Rushmore, another that I had never seen before until now. A really fun film that I have found myself thinking about throughout the day (we watched it last night).

    Vinyl Storage Recommendation

    I dont dare look at how much I paid for my last set but im pretty sure it was at least double the price of this deal.

    Amazon have a decent discount on the 35 litre XL Really Useful Boxes at the moment. 3 boxes for £38 down from £59. I have 6 of these (with 6 more on their way) and they are brilliant. First came across them at local carboot sales and record fairs, all the seasoned sellers were using them...

    Last year I went back to Manchester for the first time in 5 years. I used to live not far from it (my brother lives in the centre now) and I couldn't believe how much its changed.

    Book 8: The Queens Gambit by Walter Tevis (W&N, 2020) Really enjoyed this, gripping from the start to the end. The show is pretty much scene for scene the same and nothing really was missed out (just the odd bit here and there) but the book really fleshes it out and it well worth reading.

    I watched Bottle Rocket for the first time yesterday. I thought it was a fun film, not my favourite but it had charm. I've read that this is one of Anderson's weakest so looking forward to watching some of the others I haven't yet seen.

    I absolutely agree! Fred shows real passion with every release he puts out. He even checks each one individually for flaws before sending them out. Incredible dedication!
