I must've had more money then! facebook comment DJ'S CHOICE The picture above of the vinyl single made me think of two things ,first of all how big of a deal it was to buy a chart single, back then.if the song was popular you had to get down there fast  or it was sold out but the buzz you got holding that hard come by disc  made the effort worthwhile. Secondly I was just thinking about the set of decks I cut my teeth on,a set of  mono FAL's  bought from Aquarius Sound and Lighting in Lexlip.The FAL twin Decks took two men to carry them, that and the record box (often referred to as the coffin) COMPUTERS 1983 COMPUTER GAMES 1983 CLICK HERE
WHAT WE DROVE IN 1983  The Ford Sierra was the first Ford to use the “jelly mold” styling that became the hallmark of Fords automotive design worldwide.   ABSOLUTE 80'S is also on SKY CH 0200 Here's how I listen to satellite radio from SKY and it's also a great way  to keep up with a TV show (you can even turn audio description) if maybe  you have to let the dog out ,put out the bins etc.
