I sometimes think about this, but in the context of moving back to the UK from Singapore to retire (why, I hear you ask – that’s why the sometimes…..).

Given that I would be not tied to any job and hence a […]

Congratulations and enjoy the new role.

You do realise though, that every time our box sets from Amazon are late, we’ll be complaining to you on here.

Thanks – looks like two purchases from Mr Amazon then

Do you know if this instead of the usual “Elements” collections that come out each year (and I believe are also initially sold at their concerts). I usually pick those up, but wondering if being the 50th ann […]

As mentioned above, the main omission seems to be Fargo – all three series have been superb.

Surprised that Sherlock and Wolf Hall were not higher. Sherlock was groundbreaking when it first came out (it got a […]

I too have a soft spot for The Cars. Not a completist by any means, but I have a couple of their albums.

However, to this day, I still cannot listen to “Drive” without seeing images of starving Ethiopians aft […]

If you have the Blu-Ray of the movie, you could always use a tool such as DVD Extractor to capture the soundtrack.

It works on both Mac and Windows and has a fully functional 30 day trial. I use it to […]

Yes it was, which is why I held off ordering the CD/DVD package. Just that with record companies, you never know……..

At least in this case the DVD is not really making it expensive.

The worst is when they issue box sets that include vinyl and CD – the vinyl usually pushes up the cost (and the postage) when it’s something t […]

Yep, though still debating on ordering – its definitely a want and it’s a reasonable price, but…..

Most of the recent Prince reissues have been released in hi-res. I know this will be available as a d […]

I must have missed the memo that we were not supposed to be listening to Andy Partridge. I’ve ordered the upcoming Dukes reissue as well, so am I on the naughty step too, or should I just hide behind a rock for a while…….

I see that the Torygraph’s headline story is that Boris “can legally stop Brexit extension” and that he is drawing up plans to do so, yet the Times is leading “Boris in retreat over Brexit De;ah” and the article t […]

Another shout for Levi’s 501s which are still my go to option (although I prefer the lighter blue denim not dark). I also quite like Old Navy (basically Gap’s cheaper range).

The fashion conscious teenage boy […]

Is that because he is only half a bee ?
