So it turns out, when you let Cammy loose in a foreign country with his Staples money, he buys a shitton of CDs with it. Have a nice look at what I'll have to get through customs in two weeks:

There's nineteen in that stack. A few were grabbed from Sister Ray in London (which was honestly pretty unremarkable, though the CD selection was nice), a few more from Spillers once more, and the rest (probably half the stack) were grabbed from the absolutely legendary Kelly's in Cardiff Market.

I don't think my old post "A Tale of Two Welsh Record Stores" accurately describes the wonder that is Kelly's. Other record stores have distributors; Kelly's stock is literally whatever people sell him. He apparently owns his entire top half of the balcony in Cardiff Market. My man doesn't even use a scanner with barcodes to check you out, he adds up all the price stickers on the albums on paper and then tosses a price at you. The CDs are all at impulse buy prices, practically. My haul today, consisting of the seven records from Bush, Matchbox Twenty, Brendan Benson, Better Than Ezra, and Remy Zero, came out to £19.

Seven CDs for 20 quid, lots of it stuff I literally never expected to see in a record store over here. Kelly's is officially my favorite place to visit in Cardiff, bar none.

Anyway! Gonna rip all these probably on Sunday and get them uploaded to the home server. Tomorrow, we visit Castle Raglan, stream, and drink cream liqueur on stream. I have another journal entry going up tomorrow; I'm officially in backlog territory with these now. Good times though! Much on my mind, much to say.
