So pleased you made it and the result was, eventually, positive. Hope you make it back soon
The first time I went to an Everton match was during the FA Cup in 1989. Unfortunately, it went the wrong way. Tonight, they didn’t disappoint. Thanks for the invite, @andyburnham.

Didn’t really buy anything ‘new’ but did fill in a few gaps in the vinyl. This belter included

No vinyl today, but music provided via a wonderful set of installations celebrating the work of Ryuichi Sakamoto. Not well enough yet for strong fresh coffee

Rashford had him on toast. But fair play, (a) he’s not a full back, and (b) what lovely honesty. Full of admiration for a fellow professional
🚨 Merlin Rohl on facing Marcus Rashford against Manchester United: 🗣️ Rohl: “Before the game we obviously prepared for Rashford. You watch the clips, you study what he likes to do and you tell yourself, ‘Okay, don’t let him come inside onto his right foot.’ Then the game starts and the first time I show him outside, he goes outside. So next time I’m thinking, ‘Fine, I know now.’ I protect the outside and he comes inside. After a while I stopped trying to guess. I was just waiting for Marcus to tell me which way we were going. That’s probably the most difficult game I’ve had against a winger. Because it wasn’t one trick you could eventually understand. He’d slow down, accelerate, come inside, go outside. Sometimes I thought I’d defended the first movement well and then realised there was apparently a second one. At one point somebody from the bench was shouting instructions to me. I couldn’t even hear exactly what they were saying, but I remember thinking, ‘If you know which way he’s going, please come down here and tell me.’ People can analyse defending afterwards and say I should’ve shown him this way or that way. I tried both ways. He accepted both invitations. Then after the game somebody told me Manchester United were considering selling him not long ago. I said, ‘Selling him where?’ Because after spending 70 minutes trying to keep Marcus Rashford in one place, the last thing I wanted to hear was that Manchester United nearly sent him somewhere else to do this every week.”

Looks fantastic. Can't wait to visit
Just finished a few alterations to my shop so here’s a quick tour around the the place. I thought about hoovering first & it’s the thought that counts. (Noise Annoys,Abergele,North Wales. Always buying record collections so get in touch if any to sell)

I’m suddenly getting loads of unsolicited emails linked to one or other of my books, each suggesting discussing how best to promote them. They appear AI-generated (so are semi-persuasive). Are others getting lots of these. Needless to say, I’d be delighted if any were real!

This morning it’s strong fresh coffee and, “It Goes On”, newly out from Manchester’s Westside Cowboys. Bit of a throwback but really rather lovely
