Contributer to discogs for over 11 years or so, now downsizing my collection. Fresh items being added regularly - please keep checking my "Items For Sale." I'm happy to listen to offers on virtually anything, whether "Make An Offer" is enabled or not. Just drop me a message and I'll listen to any sensible chat around prices, postage, condition etc.

Record collector from Central Scotland, originally from Leith, Edinburgh, now based somewhere up the crazy River Forth Valley, under the shadow of the Ochil Hills. Here is me in the crowd on a sunny day in May 2016, singing along to a Proclaimers song after witnessing an unlikely moment in sporting history. Sunshine on Leith (Mount Florida Spine-Tingling Singalong Version).

Mine arrived from a well known UK retailer and has a sight hairline scratch extending from track A1 to A2. Black, plain paper inner sleeves, not polylined which is a little disappointing. Might seek a replacement copy 🙁🤷🏻‍♂️
