Music Weekly: Week2: Spotnicks
So, week two of my attempt to go to the independent record shop each week and buy a record was almost scuppered by the fact that I went along to the shop last Tuesday to find that there was a note on the door saying that he'd decided to go for a holiday and would be back on Saturday.
