    Can't seem to find much about it but is the original pressing of Blue Monday 12" valuable?

    Check discogs but when you say original there were loads of pressings so you’ll need to find the one where stamps in runout groove match. My copy is only worth a few quid.

    Blue Monday was absolute ****.

    New Orders worst, and yet most successful, single.

    First pressing though the sound was supposed to be better in later pressings, go figure anyways there's some gems out there on Factory, real collectors items which partly lead to their downfall, some of the records cost more to produce than the actual cost.

    I’ve still got loads to catalogue but so far the cure kiss me x 3 with ltd orange 12” is most expensive at £150 or so

    Metal detectorists sentenced after damaging historic fort

    Prosecutors said that on June 8, 2020 witnesses saw the pair using a metal detector and digging at Dunadd Fort, which is a protected site.

    Following a complaint and a subsequent investigation by Historic Environment Scotland (HSE), 28 holes were found at the site and police recovered an extremely fragile iron hammerhead.

    You still in Nice? Plenty of rings lost in the sea due to shrivelled digits.

    Due to the problems at the ports/airports/railways I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere. Maybe a day trip to Birmingham.
