Although TBH I expect to revise my opinion of London Town someday, so watch out BOTR. Carmel gave me a copy of V&M for my birthday which is nice to have, with the cool posters (and sticker!). So I went to sleep before 9, woke up at 2 and have been awake hanging with cats and reading. It's been good.  Should get a copy of McCartney III.
