Makes You Feel Old

[ElaineJ]

Radio 2 keeps announcing "The 40th Anniversary of The Beatles' White Album" - we have one carefully stored away!

Keep it safe my DH collects 60's records in mint condition, we trawl all the record fairs in the South and believe me these records are worth a packet. Have you got the set of 4 pictures included with the album? He swapped a Milford Railway Station Sign for this record with his cousin about 10 years ago and it was worth £110 then.

His reason for going to the fairs is that he is thinking of starting a business, yeah right! more come in but none have at the moment gone out. His excuse is that the older copies are going on the juke box, yes he has got one of them as well a 1015 Wurlitzer repro. Talk about second childhood.

I still have a bay city rollers LP tucked away somewhere. Don't think that one will be worth anything though
I agree though, I always feel very old whenever they play all the 'golden oldies' and I remember 'boping' to them in the disco. It's nice when someone brings out a cover version and I can sing along to it though.

what made me feel old earlier this year is when we had a work experience girl at hobbycraft and I realised she'd been one of the first children I'd looked after when I worked in the playgroup
also catching up with all the 'children' I'd looked after when I first left college and now they're all grown men and women !!

Don't know whether the pics are with it - Jones already had it before we met (I wasn't all that keen on the Beatles). I think he played it once or twice then taped it.

Talking of tapes, I just remembered I had an 8 track player in my first car, although they were starting to be discontinued, you could still buy the tapes new.
