Loving the Limewire download quality of ITV4.

Hydration break

This World Cup isn't ideal for car booters.

Absolutely delighted to have some ironing to do tonight. #Hades

Incredible the amount of people on Facebook saying this is normal UK summer weather we're about to experience. It's JUNE!

Little CD haul. Chazzas seem pretty full of good CDs currently. No records, unfortunately. #CDSky

Blimey

About to explain to my Irish Catholic wife that our son would like to have a big England flag hanging from the front of the house.

Just CDs again at the car boot! 50p each and intrigued by the White Album bootleg. #CDsky

It's 2026 and I need to bring out my granddad's Roberts FM radio so I can listen to Tony Blackburn's Radio 2 show. My 'smart' speaker currently won't play BBC radio!

13-year-old son loves punk and power pop and my 10-year-old is listening to Metallica and Porcupine Tree. Key fatherhood objective is on track.

A step up from what we get at the venue these days!

"You've got to sit through The Stereophonics to get to The Cure." My new go-to motivational dad quote, thanks @webuyrecords.bsky.social

Pure joy youtu.be/ooV6qyVRQk8?...

I don't normally get excited about CDs, but picked this up for a few pence in the chazza. Had a quick look on Discogs and pretty shocked at the value. I know this comes across as a humblebrag, but anyone know why this version is £££? Nothing in the Discogs reviews #vinylsky #vinylcommunity #CDsky

Been very slim pickings at car boots this year. Good stuff at reasonable prices just not appearing really. Hoping for better luck soon. #vinylcommunity #weekendsingles

Been having a lovely few days in Istanbul. One of the unexpected treats had been a return to plastic straws rather than UK style paper ones that expand and disintegrate within minutes. Sorry, turtles.

In Istanbul #cats

6 from the boot fair this morning. #weekendsingles

lol

A vanishingly rare Oxfam bargain (with sleeve blurred for Bluesky's Victorian modesty). #vinylcommunity

One of the most intriguing things about Facebook Marketplace is the ability of sellers to post 10 photos of the same stack of records, each giving precisely zero info to the buyer.

That period during the beginning stages of your autistic child's meltdown when you wonder whether it's going to be a Really Big One. That.

This must be one of pop's greatest 'lost' songs. Reckon Richard Hawley would do a great cover of it. youtu.be/92_UXBX-Rhg?...

Thought I was going home from the car boot empty record-bagged for a second consecutive week, but snagged this lot in the last few stalls. I know nothing about jazz but the Ahmad Jamal sleeve looked so cool. #vinylcommunity #jazzsky

I've had 'Pink Orange Red' by Cocteau Twins as a constant earworm today. Actually rather happy about that.

Slowly trying to rectify the brainless decision to sell my records for pittance 20 years ago. Here's one I've got back via the chazza today. #vinylcommunity

Couple of 7s and a stack of CDs at today's car boot. All 50p each. #vinylsky #vinylcommunity #weekendsingles

A few chazza 7s today, in time for #weekendsingles

This RSD I've picked up these two for £5.50 from the chazza. #vinylcommunity

Virtually nothing at the car boot. So resorted to CDs. One in total, but what a beaut for 25p!

Keep reading about this band and never properly listened to them, so picked this one up on a whim. I'm going in... #vinylcommunity

With all this evil rubbish going on, worth reminding ourselves of a beautiful Anglo American union. One of the greatest songs ever recorded sounding almost as good live youtu.be/o349pilMgks

An entire country acting like a neurotic parent too timid to let their child experience the shock of an actual consequence.

Chazza pickup today. I love folk revival albums from the 60s and seem to be quite a few around currently. #vinylcommunity #folksky

Solidarity with all my fellow Catholics at this time of year. youtu.be/d0LeL9BUPtA?...

Didn't think there were too many Queen rarities, but apparently this is one. #vinylcommunity

Oh God. April 1st in the AI era is just awful.

A few 7s in the chazza this morning. #vinylcommunity

Car boot season is in full swing now. Particularly looking forward to listening to the Warren Zevon/REM album. #vinylcommunity

Finally got a clean copy of this beauty! #vinylcommunity

Completely random chazza pickup entirely on the strength of awesome sleeve art. Will see if it's any good. #vinylcommunity

I literally don't understand a single word of anything anyone from Marketing Operations is talking about.

First car boot of the year. Chilly and not much there, but a few for #weekendsingles

Needs quite a bit of TLC, but a rare chazza bargain nevertheless. #vinylcommunity

Just seen there's a Sinatra musical opening soon. Someone needs to be brave and do a musical of Watertown. It's all there!

Well, it's getting to the point I'm getting excited about picking up Barbara Dickson records at the chazza. #vinylcommunity #vinylsky #folksky

One of those songs I keep returning to year after year. Just perfect. youtu.be/P7jwLxkN8gI?...

Ford really needs to speed up his kicks from hand! #engire

A couple of episodes into Small Prophets and it's not grabbing me as quickly as Detectorists. Don't think I've quite worked out the lead character Michael yet. Will persevere.
