    MORE new tyres. Grrrrr!

    Just when I have no money to spare and the weather is conducive to much riding, the tyres are phoobahed. Again.

    I wonder if I could get some rich old lady to sponsor a new toyboy? Or is that wishful thinking at my age...she'd have to be damn old.

    Better sell more of me vinyl disks instead.

    Haven't been played in 30 years. Only ever played on the best gear - Thorens turntable, SME arm, ADC26 cartridge at 1gm...Cambridge amp, Tannoy 15 inch speakers...I was a hifi geek at one stage.

    Just sold a Beatles collection and a Pink Floyd collection for $300.

    Got about another 7 Floyd available plus various other stuff. Some Led Zep, some Deep Purple, Steppenwolf I think in there somewhere...Curved Ar (1), etc etc...look on Trade Me and outbid everyone else and they are all yours. Help a fellow biker get new tyres!

    Nah, got over listening to the machinery years ago. Dunno what happened to the gear - lost in the mists of time...and divorce.

    I'll put up a couple more offers next week.

    I sold a bunch of my records years ago when I went to CD and I am now buying them all back again. Interesting to note that a secondhand LP has gone from $15 a couple years back to $30 today - same record, same condition.

    Lots of rereleases too: I bought "Nuggets" over Christmas (on CD: it was $28 and the vinyl (double) was $48. The digital copy won out for its versatility: i.e. I wanted a digital copy.

    I love buying new records that have a download coupon with them: The Toy Love live at the kings arms vinyl I bought last week had that
