Cassettes

[Bridgwit (Bridget)]

Maybe cassettes are God’s way of telling you that you have too much money....  


(apologies to Robin Williams)

"Better for you than cocaine".  I'm getting the t-shirt....

You go to the wrong parties then...  

(This is a joke, in case anyone thinks I’m promoting cassette usage)

The girl's on fire!  

ps back on topic...my latest purchase is an original Island Pink 'Kip of the Serenes'.  I'm a little in love with it.

I have a cassette version of AT2, not sure if it's playable as I no longer have a tape deck. Free to a good home, assuming it will be cherished/played rather than sold,  if any of you strange cassette collecting folk want it   (already asked david - he already has it!)

First to reply gets it.

Good man!  Come on someone, you know you want to...
