He wouldn't be "the man" at any of the top 4 clubs in the Prem , or La Liga for that matter. Without his pace he would struggle. He reminds me of a younger version of Walcott, and I'm beginning to think his days at Arsenal are numbered.

Sterlings attitude reminds me of a quote one of my eldest sons sports tutors used to spout when confronted by lads with similar traits. "Never confuse confidence with ability"

A girl I knew worked in their on a Saturday. It was owned by a very stern old woman who used to get quite sniffy when we went in on a Saturday and asked the girl we knew to spin a load of tunes so we could take our pick. The one in Choumert Road was in a row of shops on the left as you looked down from the Rye Lane end.

From the future of DHFC to the new romantics in 2 steps. Remarkable

Rye lane once had at least 2 shops in the 70's both just of the high street, one was at the top of Choumert Road, Rye Lane end and the other was on the corner where the fruit and veg stalls used to be, plus there was a little unit in the Arcade that sold nothing but reggae 7s in the late 60's early 70's just along from Jack who used to sell West Indian foods. Nice to know so many have kept faith with vinyl

My pleasure like I say if you need anymore info , please feel free to PM me, I still retain contact with many dealers and shop owners and I'm happy point you in the right direction if you're looking for anything specific.

Forgot to say a lot of seaside fairs are happening this summer in places like Brighton, Whitstable, Deal and Hastings. If anyone wants the details I can PM them to you.

Rat records in Camberwell, but avoid Saturday mornings as that's when they put out the new stock and it's like a stampede. If you fancy going further afield, try Wanted records in Beckenham or Rollin' Records in West Wickham which is owned a and run by Steve Willis and his missus Tina. Steve has been in the business for decades and has the likes of Chris Welch, the rock writer and Mark Lamarr as regulars. His shop is a lovely place to visit. Alternatively you could try Casbah in trendy Greenwich, not my cup of tea but hey. There also have regular record fairs in Croydon and Orpington which aren't a million miles from SE London. I found a stack of stuff in mint condition for 50p and ?1 at a record fair in Kent yesterday which would normally retail for between ?8 and ?15 each, but I did have to do quite a bit of digging, but that's half the fun.

Gay saturation? Is that what happens when it's raining men?

Agree with both TJ and miga, as a vinyl buyer since 1968 and previously a record dealer for 22 years, I think it no longer serves a purpose. Limited pressings appear almost within minutes of becoming available on ebay for people looking to make a quick pound. Avoid record store day like the plague and just go vinyl hunting at your local record shop, or record fair, provided you have one of course, or jump in your car, get on a train, tube, bus or whatever and visit a vinyl emporium. You may me pleasantly surprised.

"men are desperate to remove their facial hair without appearing to be weak-willed fashion victims" hilarious

Jah, that second story sound amazingly similar to one Spike Milligan used to tell on various talk shows in 70's about a guy he knew in the army that had dysentery.

Remember his remarks about managing Real Madrid? Has he considered a new career in stand up?
