Bring it on! I'm here for it.

Most of my copies of Annually are packed away (not under V) unread to be honest, so not sure that holds water.

Retirement is going to be an absolute blast though, cracking open all that lovely vinyl!

To be honest though, part of the fun of buying all those special edition vinyls was the search and the chase. The stories (some already shared here) with lasting memories of finding that elusive special edition just don't happen anymore. That to me is the sadder part of all of this.

Buying Annually but not reading it makes absolutely no sense to me, whatsoever. Mind you, neither does buying PSB tea sets, so there is that...

Undertow, Agenda, My Beautiful Launderette, Lost and Cricket Wife would like to have a word. Admittedly the CD's really were more the defining reason I got them, but I'm also not complaining when there isn't one, because as a bit of completist I still need the book along side those others.

I did read (cover to cover) the 2024 issue. It was a good read, but I still get more out of the music personally, and I'll likely go back to the others some day (the same way I might one day go back to PSB vs America).

Speaking of teasets and getting more out of the music, I can rattle off a tune or two with half filled teacups and a metal spoon. It's all good here!

Looking forward to the Q&A section.
I saw a Depeche Mode interview where they were asked their most favourite and least favourite song they've done.
I'd like those types of questions to be asked.

Got a shipping notification today.

Same! Exciting!

Me too!

Me three! Hope this isn't an April Fools.

Me four. Or five.

Now for the waiting game to see if the official store has figured out the IOSS scheme and if I'll be hit with import charges once again.

Nothing for me yet

Mine's on the way!

Was it worth it? Worth waiting for?

The book is on its wayyyyyyyyy - IN tran-sit!
I hope it arrives
Before all the tariffs.

Why am I having flashbacks to being ten years old and waiting for Santa to bring me a Look-in Annual?

I got the email too, yay.
