We also had that record when I was but a scrawny nipper and I used to play it (both sides) constantly - until I was told that I would have to buy the next box of gramaphone needles from my meagre threepence a week pocket money if I did not desist!). Regrettably the disc came to an untimely end when our new puppy knocked it off a side table and it smashed into a million pieces.<BR/><BR/>Jimmy (Gordon) Brown - now where have I heard that name before?<BR/><BR/>PS: I thought campanology was what EK did with his tent on Dartmoor?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
