Same here. The sixties was a swizz, unlike any other time I have heard it.
Spoiler: show
Bought the LP and sent it to my Swedish girlfriend, crossed in the post with the one that she had bought for me and posted.
This was the one she sent (still have it)

And this the one I sent to her.

Which Donovan did the cover for.
She got the better deal as it had "Sand & Foam" and "The Hampstead Incident" on it.

Just to let people know, Only Connect and University Challenge are back. They were on last night (15/11), but will be returning to their usual Monday night slots.

...and Mastermind before it although this week's contest was pretty much a no contest. Did pretty well on Only Connect got a handful of the connections including the port out starboard home which neither of the Teams got. :-D

I have every reason to believe I am an FCFer who has been there and if I'm right then you will find this just North of the village:

I think you have too :-D . I suspect Peter has been there too, Maybe Steve, Skull. I probably have before but first time I purposely went there. Stayed too late and had to negotiate Hawes to Sedbergh on to Kendal, and on to Windermere in the dark and the pouring rain on unfamiliar roads with many twists and turns and glaring streams of headlights. Not very relaxing!

Had to look on a map and I see nothing familiar. Haven't been in that area much.

I have a feeling Steve may have a decent day with the Original, maybe the Sixties and will definitely fill his boots on the 70's :-D

Indeed Neil,

Original. First note :)

Sixties. Eight seconds.

Seventies. Knew it straight away but ten seconds to recall the title.

Eighties. Had to play the intro a few times before I could name it.

Nineties. Fail.

2000s. Fail. Ugh.

other 2000s. Fail.
