Annual Leave

End of Part 2 (as they used to say on The Goodies). Time for another break for us. Check back on Sunday August 5 for the start of year 3.

This year our stats were sullied by a couple of spambots and some other unsavoury netizens that kept hitting the blog. Not much we could do about it, and it seemed to take Blogger most of the year to sort out a method to minimise the effect. Anyway, we tried to take it into account when compiling the top ten most viewed posts from the last twelve to thirteen months. Here's what everyone out there was looking at:
  1. Mopsie Beans - Appearances LP - recently updated
  2. Rockets - Mean Mistress 7"
  3. Invader - Don't Blame It On Me 7"
  4. British Jets - Another Day In The City 7"
  5. The Word - I Think I'm Falling In Love 7”
  6. Just Urbain - Everybody Loves Just Urbain 7"
  7. Toy Watches - Too Long 7" - recently updated
  8. XL Capris - Dead Budgies 7"
  9. Relatives - Picasso (Private Collector) 7"
  10. The Flying Calvittos - Lucky To Be Australian 7"
And here are some under-appreciated in-house favourites:
  1. Differentials - Thriving Metropolis 7"
  2. Nasty Nigel and the Teenage Hellcats - Jonestown Suicide 7"
  3. DJK Band - Venus Flytrap 7"
  4. Danny Graham - s/t LP
  5. Cartoons - Feel My Heart-Beat 7"
  6. Armchairs - Party Time LP (check out the video version which starts out sounding like a Fun Things outtake)
  7. Nervous System - Pied Piper 7"
  8. Jackson Zumdish - Flyblown 7"
  9. Finch - Roses 7"
  10. John Vincent - 'Ow Ya Goin' 7"
Our thanks to all of the regulars. See you in August.
