the magic number is 25!!!
We get mid-weeks everyday now for some reason, and even though 25 looks good, the position was 17 for Monday's sales and 22 for Tuesday's.
um, i think it's going to be very close. the numbers seem to be slipping daily and i think that's purely because of the low stock levels that the shops are ordering. come saturday, when i guess the bulk of a week's records are sold, you just won't be able to find '3, 6, 9...' on the shelves anywhere and people will have to resort to buying another copy of that elton john record (the one that i still haven't heard more than 20 seconds of but i guess i'm just lucky), or that one that goes on about tangoing the foxtrot or something. or that one which destroys 'life in a northern town'. oh, and on ceefax this morning i noticed a list of bands on this week's totp and b&s weren't there. can't remember who exactly were playing but jayne middlemarch (or whatever) was presenting. um, ceefax page 560 something for details (565 i think), it's a sub page of the chart rundown. um, sent both the single of the week reviews to the list yesterday but they haven't yet appeared. curious. i'll give it until this afternoon and re-send them. i was also about to start transcribing the tour diary and sending it here a bit at a time (to build up the tension or something, or because i can't be arsed to type it all in in one go). but i'll leave that for the time being too... oh, katrina, got laura's mail. ta. it was actually paul that was enquiring but i need the info too so... have given her his address. oh paul, i gave laura your address... andy dipsy: "wassat?" tinky winky: "guitar. run away!" ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
