I have just given Jim his current favourite ball of yarn and photographed him in the hope it might persuade a few more people to sign up for my newsletter and podcast: tomcox.substack.com. If you’d rather not, that’s fine. I’ll just tell him it’s because he’s not cute enough.
To be fair, he does feature in the latest one.
News just in from my Facebook page: TAKE THAT WOOL AWAY FROM THAT CAT HE IS GOING TO EAT IT AND DIE.
A few records I’m selling. All in great condition. Nearly all early pressings, mostly duplicates of things I own and love. Prices to come later in thread but drop me a direct message in case you’d like to nab anything (UK only).
Mint gatefold repress, with booklet. £25.
Fab LP. A must for fans of Carole King and Judee Sill. £17.
“Good morning. We have already been hard at work for several hours rearranging your rugs for you. You are welcome.”
The album is on the far right is ‘Hills Of Indiana’ by Lonnie Mack, by the way. Recommended to me, I seem to remember, by @Andr6wMale about seven years ago, and really great. I’ve got a spare copy if anyone would like it for not very much money.
