It is a standing joke in our house. As soon as the postman is spotted in the street I am on high alert. Should they come anywhere close to our door I am like a terrier without the bark! I have always loved receiving post but don't seem to get a great through the door these days (not even bills in this paperless age!).
Occasionally, something arrives bearing my name. Today was one such day, when this gem was delivered. Issue 29 of 'Safety Pin' magazine, for which the draw was the Newtown Neurotics and specifically a four track 12" E.P. of material recorded during the sessions that resulted in the 'Cognitive Dissidents' album. This is not a soon to be dented flexi, or even a 7", but a brilliantly packaged, heavy weight 12" vinyl record complete with lyric sheet!
Now to locate the turntable (last seen peeking through a pile of calico works-in-progress, the handiwork of a 3rd year fashion student.... sorry Gunta!)
Available here.
