Vinyl - for more music pleasure

Nothing beats vinyl, now I am doing my best to rebuild my collection and there is no better place than Skivesset on Nobelvägen in Malmö (well I suppose there is, but..) A good sunday today because I had to choooose which ones to buy, and the winners are:

David Bowie, never goes out of style

Have been looking for the early Sabbath records, had to settle for greatest hits, so damned hard to find! And Janis, dear Janis.

Fiendens Musik, some classic "protestmusic" and The Clash, no comment needed!

Don't really know what this is, but how could I not get the Hip Hipsters with the Hipster Singers?

Framing this one, it's just tooo pretty!

Mama's got a new old red bag, because I travel through life..


Got some good news, life's moving on, next route. Celebrates by going to the thriftshop - Eriksjälpen, Åkarp. Buys some fantastic things including x-mas presents. Strangely that pleased me more. You just never know.

It's really red, not pink, badbadcamera

Bruxelles -59, hey Malin - thought of you

love this old hangers, I've already got lots - can never get too many

Love this book - about the savages the aucaiindians in Ecuador, who kills everyone they meet because they don't want to socialise with anyone outside their tribe. This man went there in the 50's to learn about them, brilliant pictures as well.
And then this!! Housewife-dictionary about food from the 50's. Sooo useful!

Some pics from the book;A foldout Housewife's spice-schedule

Table-manners!!

Nothing new under the sun..

Beautiful pictures

Some stories for x-mas

Kalle's scaring the punters...

Weekend 's gone by, again. Had a showing sunday for my flat and had to go to the Vinylstore again, poor me! When I came home I found Kalle having a laugh and scaring the punters peekabooing from the bed, damn that rabbit <3

some old classics! Lene Lovich has always been my favourite, sooo good

Kalle doing his thing...

Ryakudde - cheap and pretty

Found a long letter in the Royal book, Glenn writing his swedish friends BrittMarie och Claes. Always exciting buying secondhand!

Broken Black Brio Dog

On my way back from a very good meeting in Helsingborg, I swung by Erikshjälpen in Åkarp. They had Xmas there, so I bought some!

I specially like the black curtain-thingie with pink/orange pigs and stars and hearts on. And candles and string and stuff for near to nothing... ohhmy.. second hand is so wonderful, you never know what you are going to bring home! But it always makes me very happy!



And then I found my Broken Black Brio Dog and he came home with me. He had a wonky tail but he was such a happy fella :)


 Listening to: Shirley Bassey - Greatest Hits

Crocodile Rock


And the reason for this festive post is, except the fact it's both good and funny, good clean living for the happy family, well anyway... the reason was my forced outings when I had to leave my flat to my estate agent for showing. What can I do, oh jeah, fleemarkets and vinylshops, ohh, lovely!

So I ended up with this:



And here we've come home and we're grooovin' to Elton, hell jea!!
