Oh i wonder if pissed_pacifist  listened to my mix CD yet?

Polegate Halloween Night

This is taken by GC went she and I went to Polegate for a PRS vist ant a community social club on the Saturday evening.. They had a Halloween party disco  night,but the DJ (ha ha!) was playing CDs and not very good at the mixing either. Amateur night indeed! The first hour they just palyed a pre-mixed CD of seventies and eighties soul music.

Still a good few pints of Hobgoblin Ale washed out the crappiness of the night. Glad to leave early-ish after a dance with GC on the dancefloor.We danced to a  track by Sylvester but for the life of me cannot remember which one of his!

Sunday Boot Fair

Sunday morning i was down at the boot fair in the station car park. Only spent £5.50 in total. Saprsely attended despite being a warm sunny day.Anyway got these albums at a quid each, nothing spectacular, but useful for Djimg,etc

The Graham Walker Sound - Hair (Saga)
The Brand New Heavies - s/t (Acid Jazz)
Michel Legrand - Themes and Variations (Bell)

GC was at the station doing a passenger focus survey.
