I have to say, I used to be on here all the time when I was a security guard, got me through many a boring night shift!

Just has a look at my LPs, which haven't been played for years as I don't have a record player! Only extinct band one I have is Harry Mortimer's all star brass (B.M.C, Fairey & Foden's) album 'Brass on the March' (1966). Only other one I have is a Wingates Temperance band recording, also 1966...

I have to say that since I stopped having a job that involved spending all day trying to find something to do on the net that wasn't barred, tMP got boring on a few visits. Not as much on here as there was a few years back. I've made quite a few new friends on here but don't see much going on to...
