Here’s a wee listicle.
Things I’d like, either for Yule or my Birthday. The stuff I want most is up at the top. The stuff at the bottom I’d like, but not as keenly.
If anyone were to use this list to get me anything, it’d prob’ be wise to confer with other folk, first. So nobody accidentally duplicates stuff (it’s happened before!).
And maybe let me know, so I can cross it off? … Or not? Surprises can be nice!
NT Professional Mat Cutter, Red, 45 Degree Bevel Mat Board Cutter, 1 Cutter (MAT-45P), Aluminum Die-Cast Grip.
Looks a bit dull for the top of my list. I know! But it’d be very useful, for framing/mounting pictures. Roughly £35-40 (on Amazon), at the time of posting.
This is something I’m very keen to get/read. I have volumes one and two of this ace naval history. Volume three came out very recently. Cheapest place (I’ve seen) is, surprise, surprise, on Amazon UK.
I’d love one of these T-shirts. I’m a bit of a Furze fan-boy. Mostly on account of his whole underground tunnel stuff.
I love Edward Lear. The above book is on Amazon, here.
The above is an enamel plate, which can be bought online, here. I’m thinking of calling our art studio ‘The Owl & The Pussycat’, because it’s a beautiful pea-green! And I love Edward Lear.
The above might be interesting? I’ve read another book by the author. And it was very good.
This, below, I would dearly love:
Be careful with the above. We already have the feature length animated movie, by Cosgrove Hall (the same team). What I’m after, and is pictured above, is the complete TV series.
It’s currently approx/just under £50 on Amazon, and more or less exactly the same (both w free postage) on HMV. It’s a few pennies cheaper on Amazon, and delivered next day. HMV fractionally more, price wise, and 7-9 days delivery.
HARDER TO FIND…
Down here at the bottom is stuff I really really want, but isn’t all that easy to get hold of.
They recently had this HMS Victory model in a shop in Peterborough, for £25. But it’s gorn… So I s’pose this one might be a bit too much of a hassle for now?
I’d love this classic 1980s English Civil War drama, pictured below, on DVD. But it is a bit hard to find/dear:
More old Riff Pilchard might be fun? I’ve been living Wired For Sound. This is his previous album:
Sadly Rock ‘n’ Roll Juvenile, which contains the classic ‘We Don’t Talk Any More’, seems quite hard (and costly!) to get hold of, on CD. I’d prefer the 40th Anniversary reissue as well… So prob’ best save this one for when it becomes easier/cheaper to buy, I guess.
