Yeah, I didn't come across very well. Sorry about that!

I've been asleep all day, so I'm a bit all over the place at the minute.

By the way - isn't it weird to think when you were born EMG was out?

I always find it weird that when I was born GATS was out

Oh yeah, very weird. That's why Richey doesn't mean a lot to me...well, I mean he does, but I was never there in that era, hard to explain.

I know what you mean. Richey isn't as important to me either really, until recently I haven't really paid much attention to him...bizarre.

You young whippersnappers, I was born in the year the Manics played at the Horse and Groom. I was initially drawn into the Manics because of Richey (er, admiring his looks at any rate) but by now I've become a dyed-in-the-wool Nickyite.

I like to think that I'd at least retain some sensibility... I don't think I've paid over the odds for anything really... Definitely wouldn't be buying mugs for £50 a pop!

Who am I kidding, I'd probably just offer cheinandolucia a lot of begging and £500,000 for his collection or something.

I think there's a few people on here who, lottery winnings permitting, would offer you a pretty sum for your collection. Myself included.

I would say I'd pass it onto my son but he's 12 & still buys Now 77 etc. I don't know what I've done wrong - mind you he came into the kitchen the other day & heard Nicky singing & he asked if I'd paid for it or if it was a free download. Cheeky...

I was tempted to make him personally acquainted with my triple LP heavy weight vinyl Lipstick Traces but then I realised that a) his mother would kill me b) it's worth over £50.

If I win the lottery it will be!

Oh and sorry for spelling your username really badly, French(?) has never been my strong point.

Gah, totally unimpressed with cdwow on vinyl. All three never made it. They are helpful with their customer service and sent me out a new KYE, but how could all three get lost?

that is fucking ridiculous, Tim
i kinda feel bad because i pointed them out, but then again they've always made it here, once something took a while and they sent me a new one right away. customs maybe? dont even know.

but if you can get something from the quake, tsunami & nuclear stricken japan in a week, you SHOULD be getting these in less than three months. that fucking sucks.

ps - i still havent bought my TIMT copy, probably will get it at amazon or something in that case...

Well, to be fair they were really helpful and sent another KYE which came straight away - so i don't understand it. If that one came straight away, why did three shipped separately not make it....wonder if its the company they use. I hope they are going to ship some more copies of the others.
