The Ashford Anomaly

Saturday afternoon i took a journey over to Ashford to do a couple of charity shops and a cinema visit which meant that i got back very late at night. Apart from the initial chagrin i received from my cousin he was very pleased with the belt and the CD i gave him.

The only problem is that the belt split apart this morning. Well it was a cheap one, but i will find another next chazzer trip.

First port of call was in Faversham to the book fair. I picked up another Primo Levi book in a Folio Society edition for £3 , his “If This Is A Man”, and “The Gentle Art Of Smoking” by Alfred K. Dunhill ((Max Reinhardt Ltd.).

In Ashford i bought a T shirt for myself, that belt, and a classical CD plus some books. The CD is a compilation of French orchestral music including music by Satie, Bizet and Ibert.

The books are -

Philip Pullman “Count Karstein” (Corgi)
India Knight “Comfort and Joy” (Penguin)
Jiri Weil “Mendelssohn Is On The Roof” (Daunt Books)

I then went to see a film at Cineworld and watched the latest Mel Gibson film. A fairly good thriller. However , i must have had a senior moment as the chappie behind the counter sold me a Concessionary ticket so it only cost £6.50 instead of the usual £7.90. He must have thought i was an O.A.P , cheeky bugger, but i didn’t mind as it was a bit cheaper than normal.

Tomorrow i will be in Sittingbourne and cousin is going to his specialist at St.Thomas Hospital in London.

Another One Bites The Dust

Another vinyl store is going to close.B Side The C, in Herne Bay,will be closing down due to a number of factors such as the proprietor's ill health, the internet and since the recession the guy hardly sees anyone most days. I must admit, i have not heard of it, but then , i still do not know enough about what vinyl shops are still operating in Kent, except for the one in Rainham and Canterbury. I must try and get over there to visit before he closes for good, and it just so happens i have a few visits to do in that town this month.

Talking of vinyl, a couple of those freebies from said shop in Rainham, has resulted in me selling a couple to a geezer in London - The Best of British Jazz Funk Vol.1 and Vol.2 (Beggars Banquet) and, the previous week, the Nina Simone album. A return visit is on the cards.

Well,after my stint in Sittingbourne, i could pop by on my way to Chatham to do that Boomers visit.
