One of the Monty Python LPs ("Matching Tie and Handkerchief", I believe) has two grooven on one side. And I have a very old HMV 78rpm disk that has a single groove, on one side only! 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Someone I once worked with came up to me one morning and said with all the assertiveness he could muster: "I know why you like old cars old music, old things in general. It's because you fear the future!" I asked him politely how long he had been working on that theory and how many crayons he might have used? 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieGuyRob Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 (edited) Sorry about the double upload. I think it qualifies as ebay madness. Hornby mk3 carriages go for stupid amounts of money. Especially if they are painted yellow. This one isn't, but, is an example of the stupid amounts of money, people want for an inaccurate mk3 carriage. The yellow ones, or, royal ones tend to go for a lot more. Edited November 20, 2021 by PieGuyRob 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
