Let me see what I've bought - some were impulse buys, so I can't remember it all:
HMV only managed to provide:
leaving Borders to take up the slack with:
and the books:
and the latest Scientific American.
Oh, and some fruit shortcake biscuits which I shall now dunk in my coffee whilst gloating over my new treasures
HMV only managed to provide:
- A Marx Brothers box set with eight films:
- Animal Crackers
- Monkey Business
- Horse Feathers
- Duck Soup
- A Girl in Every Port
- The Cocoanuts
- Room Service
- Love Happy
- The Grapes of Wrath (Zanuck's production, obviously)
- Ice Cold in Alex (just the thing for a rainy Sunday afternoon)
leaving Borders to take up the slack with:
- Bodies (the BBC drama about doctors killing their patients through incompetence)
- Peep Show series 1 - 4 box set
- To Kill a Mockingbird (starring Gregory Peck)
- The Truman Show (which I wouldn't have bought as I recorded it a while back, but it was only a couple of quid, and it saves me the trouble of burning it to DVD)
and the books:
- Roger McGough's autobiography Said and Done
- Hunter S Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas which I've been meaning to replace for years since somebody "borrowed" it
- Hunter S Thompson's Generation of Swine, ditto
and the latest Scientific American.
