I tell you what, that men-of-a-certain-age obsessing about vinyl is getting old, isn't it?

[Classic Jorge]

I mean, I don't get all a quiver about C90 cassettes or f**king mini disks. It's a format, a dead one at that, get over yourselves imo

[Berni]

were 'making a comeback'. I countered with the fact that we don't own any vinyl records.

Needles to say, I had the last laugh.

15 grand a pop. Now, that's passion or stupidity, or perhaps having far too much money http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/ohwell.gif

It's much closer to comic book collecting imo

[Classic Jorge]

I don't get the fetishising of it all though. Or the elevation of it above all other, in most cases more robust and convenient, formats.

A real one, all in plastic etc, presumably to avoid cum stainage.

I made good my exit within about 30 seconds once I clocked the 3 lads in discussion at the till, two assistants and one member of the Irish public.

and had found many of my toys which included, but were not limited to, teddy bears, numerous toy trains & cars, those wooden train track things, Scaletrix sets, model train sets etc. She asked if I wanted to keep them which irked me somewhat. What does she suggest I do with them? Simply clutter my loft with them for 10 years until I decide to chuck them out?!

That and plain old nostalgia.

I went to buy a record player just recently but then the accumulated cost of an amplifier and speakers made me turn on my heels.

I decided to just play the waiting game until my old man goes to heaven.

Yours for 300 quid plus p&p. Can't say fairer than that.

[Classic Jorge]

Is it me or is that the bloke off the old grey whistle test?

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

:dicklaw:

[Rich]

nick.

Besides, in say, 6 years - will kids play with toy cars?

[Berni]

That last bit's actually true.

He was also involved in a public spat with ex-Radio 1 colleague Bob Harris, whom Brookes had lent money for a flat. When Harris lost his job and was unable to clear the debt, Brookes laid an unsuccessful claim to his extensive and valuable record collection.

[Snin]

Far from a nice chap, by all accounts
