@Brighterdayvnl Viva la brighter day

Here are nine stunning 7" singles by Francoise Hardy. Some in picture sleeves and others in company sleeves. Would you like them? Comment below, "viva la Brighter Day" I promise you... these are gorgeous 🌞

As promised... here we go. Stick around to see some highlights and some giveaways. I've thousands upon thousands of 7" singles I really need to get on top of. So I really enjoy these posts, for often I don't know what I'm going to find.

@taliena @HannahAlOthman @iparkysport They look fantastic but I don’t think they’d work with anything I’ve got either. Hope they find a good home! Thanks

@HannahAlOthman @iparky @iparkysport ?

Is anybody in Manchester/nearby interested in some free vintage wharfedale speakers before I charity shop them? They were given to me, but don’t work with my record player because it has a built-in amp. (Mutuals only pls.)

@hullablue I think I’d need to say, from both sides, no.

I want to sit in a pub with @iparky and listen to him debate this claim.

@andyAVAVsystems @VinylStupidity “Intense” Records.

@VinylStupidity I’m not sure Sam, left, has learnt the Art of Welcoming Buyers yet

@CheapIndieVinyl As someone who spent many of my teenage years obsessed with The Sun Is Often Out I was majorly underwhelmed when this came out. But it’s more than worth revisiting. 24 years on, it’s a real grower.

@CheapIndieVinyl @assai_edinburgh @USolushn Also always worth heading to Avalanche, these days located inside Waverley Market above the station.

Thank you for the music, David Crosby

What’s the over/under for how many candidates the Lettuce Party fields whenever we do actually get a general election?

@therealnickbank 😢

Another disaster for town centre #Sheffield - Lynne’s Pantry is no more. #gutted

@darrenhayman Maybe not at a time when everyone thought they were done, but the Jam’s biggest hits were their last.

I'm reading Pete Thownsend's autobiography at the moment and am reminded of how good this single is. What other bands had a last hurrah with a banger, when everyone though their chart days were over? I'm thinking of Come Dancing by the Kinks but what else? youtu.be/wqPlb5PLBvg

@discogs Haribo.

Other than music, what do you wish every box set included?

@hullablue @NunTelegraph @live_coventry A display of 57 degrees, hot as it is, also suggests this is not how a proper functioning thermometer works either.

Sorry @NunTelegraph @live_coventry but that isn't how cooking steaks works. That is how hot the steak needs to be coventrytelegraph.net/news/local-new…

@CheapIndieVinyl By my maths, some of them lose money on postage. A first class stamp for a record these days is £4.45. That’s before you’ve paid for the packaging.

@kingbeerecords Should be 33 & 1/3rd, really.

Rather specific!

@darrenhayman Yeah - just fill it all out here. You'll probably get a letter within a few days admitting they screwed up. The question is whether it comes with a cheque or bloody stamps! personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/de…

@iparky Photo of it the other end looking shit, tracking number? That enough?

How hard is it claim damages or insurance from Royal Mail on an international tracked item? Is it a ball ache not worth entering into? Anyone had experience? A painting has not crossed the Atlantic happily.
