They're in Cardiff, and can be posted.

If your bachelor pad's soundtrack needs a little bolstering, these will
do the trick.


My mind is boggling on so, so many levels.


Well - actually, a proper bachelor would save the 8-tracks for the car,
and I'm sure it would be a Mazda with the gearshift on the steering
column.

Indeed, as this allows for a bench front seat which facilitates
closeness.

In the bachelor pad itself, a reel-to-reel machine would be the chief
delivery mechanism for the Bert Kaempfert and James Last. Maybe the
bachelor would even have one of those dinky new Compact Cassette
players.

Must be reel to reel. Revox or Tandberg mounted upright in the
bookshelf at head height.

Anyway, the tapes are there for anyone who wants them. I see that people
sell them on eBay still, but for a couple of pounds each it hardly seems
worth it. I spotted them in a charity shop - they were just about to get
rid of them.


Conservation is important
