Hi Guys, and a Happy New Year to all. Apologies
for having been silent recently, had so much to do in the run up to
Christmas, picked up a chest infection in India, which then developed
into a nasty cold, and what with everything else left me feeling
knackered, improving now though, must be the alcohol destroying germs.
India was great, by the time we left we couldn't wait to get away, had
enough of the noise, pollution et.al, funny thing was within two days we
began planning a return visit, I think Steve would agree that it's a
country that gets under your skin.
Dansette recollections, never had a record player until I started work,
necessity of having to buy it oneself and other things came first, did
have a big old valve radio in my bedroom though, which was often tuned
to the continental stations such as AFN and Luxembourg, no wonder I
didn't get any homework done, always fiddling around with the tuning to
get the best reception.
Don't mention the games! I'm fed up with it already, I wish our
athletes well but am personally appalled at the vast amounts of cash
being injected into it when other services, and peoples in this country
are having resources cut. As far as I'm concerned it's just to make the
government look good. OK rant over.
Once again guys have a Happy and Prosperous New Year, may the force be with you. Stu
