The top 200 continued to soundtrack as I made my way down to Stockbridge...

A lovely afternoon...

I do not need any more CDs but, searching around for stuff at lunchtimes stops me from eating too much...

And you cannot be Mr Sleek* if you eat too much...

Is that an excuse for replacing one obsession with another?  Maybe...

Mind you, those two used to exist side by side...

Anyway, I managed an impressive nine shops today...

Got this at around shop number four (BHF) for £2...

What a delight music was in the Italy of the 17th Century...

Then, in the last of the nine, I hit paydirt with these three for just £4 all told...

Good views this evening as I wlaked down the hill form the terminus to enjoy some new music...

Back home, two The Wire back issues had arrived from The Wire, replete with the third and second last of my sought after Wire Tapper CDs...

Which was good...

Late on...

...we noted the streetlamp in front of Crispycat Towers has been replaced...

I kind of like the effect but just as well we have good curtains...

Lights (inside anyway) out...

Highlight of the Day : Italy in the 187th Century...

*I am not yet exactly "sleek"...
