    Oh well, looks as if I am out of the sweepstake now!

    Not that I ever really felt in it!

    Love the Prefab Sprout track - brought back some good memories!

    At 39 am i too old to get a job in a record shop?

    I am sure you are not, especially as you have ecletic taste and a good knowledge of music!

    But,

    a) Does it pay well

    and

    b) Are there any record shops left nowadays? And if there are, how much longer are they going to survive? Everything is downloaded on to Ipods now!

    The pay was rubbish but I did it when i was a student. I had a scholarship and did not have to worry about money then. I worked with lots of famous people, it was great, I got to lots of gigs and things like the Brit Awards for free! I miss it.

    I wish my house was in Brighton, best friend lives in Bournemouth he told me to move down I couldn't because of my house. I will find a way. I miss my music. As soon as i get my health back i will take driving lessons and get a car and go to gigs again. The BBC had tickets for Crowded house about 6 weeks ago, i couldn't go as i dont drive and it was on a work night. Stupid arent i, who would say no to them????????????

    I have had all these years to be assertive and i wasted it, now I want to drive i am too ill. Life??? nevermind, at least i know what i want now.

    Sorry you're out of the sweepstake Ann. At least we got a goal (2 really) against Germany.

    I'm babysitting tonight but my granddaughter will be in bed by the time I get there. Never mind, I saw her yesterday.

    I'll be watching the Spain v Paraguay match later if I can stay awake.
