When things start going well...

[fpb]

...they keep going well for a while, they say. I have a couple of dozen old vinyl LPs picked up here and there on the prospect, sooner or later, of buying a turntable and being able to enjoy them. So yesterday I found that someone had thrown away a turntable and a cassette deck, apparently a part of an old-fashioned hi-fi apparatus, and apparently in good condition. I haven't tested the cassette deck yet, but I just hooked up the turntable to a little radio-cassette recorder I had, and - after a little struggle with the commands, which were not completely clear - out came the sound of Haydn and Bach, as perfect as you could wish.

I feel even a bit nostalgic. I learned music from vinyl, after all, before anyone had thought of CDs.

Yoohoo! Sometimes you need such nice little surprises in life! I'm happy you're enjoying your new turntable.
Completely off topic, but you will be happy to hear that I've started typing the story I've started about someone having a baby. It's going to be a little longer than the 1000 words I promised, I think.
