I got 4 1960's CDs for £2!

I got talking about "Sounds of the 60s" on a Saturday morning to the staff.

"I won't be getting up that early for Tony Blackburn!" One said.

Off to visit more Charity shops.

 

 

 I walk into the next Charity Shop,

Then I started singing along..↓

People was looking at me, I carried on singing along.

Once the song finished,

I left the shop.
