haha, i saw that yesterday. One of the comments was "after your song is played you’re even allowed to remove and keep the usb stick"
During Covid i was selling a fair bit and still went to work every day on the train.
I got an order and the address was near work, so i took the 20 mile train in and hand delivered the record in under an hour (thinking i’m providing the best service ever and its probably a world ‘record’!)
Buyer had been furloughed and had’nt changed his delivery address from work
Ah yes, no good deed goes unpunished.
Got a discogs order from an address a couple of streets away, grabbed the record and walked it straight round there, delivery in under 10 minutes. Dude was mega happy, ended up doing a cash deal with him for a pile of my old drum and bass.
That’s brill.
Similar thing happened with me a few years ago. I live in Manchester and a guy from Oxford ordered something from me off Discogs. I was heading to the family home in Hampshire the same evening, so after a quick detour off the A34, I was able to deliver it to him in person.
Perhaps someone should start a thread for shitty FB/social ads.
Ah yes, West Bromwich, the vaunted seat of the Hellfire Club and favored destination of debauched sybarites everywhere…
Was chatting earlier with a mate about people’s names you’ve known.
Remembered that I worked many years ago (aged about 19) in a clothing warehouse with a posh (ish… probably more that he had elderly academic parents from memory) young lad called Dickon.
The manager used to come out of his office at 4:30 pm and throw a broom at him whilst shouting loudly ‘Dickon, the floor…’
At primary school I had a Chinese freind called Kin Wah Shing, which in retrospect sounded like something Pauline Fowler might have shouted.
Coming back to school after the summer holidays he’d changed his name to Frederick.
At secondary school we had a red-head named Tammy Staines but the less said about that the better I think.
My daughter had teachers in primary school Mrs Curry and Mrs Rice…
And a Mrs Coffey she just told me…
All roads lead to Donegal this weekend. Two bales of Coke found yesterday on two very remote beaches and cops made a boo boo saying they expect more to be washed up…
That’s the one
