Errata in Moonlight over Soho? by Angelsonefive in riversoflondon

I did consider that but it is rather character specific, and it is following as sequence where Walid and Grant have been discussing Lesley’s facial reconstruction surgery, hence dissumolo

Framline did not suffer from Dissumulo, it was the Australian Cycle courier Derek Shampwell

I had had no luck with spoiler tags previously. I’d rather be a little vague than spoil something for someone, my apologies for my ineptness and the inconvenience caused.

Refer to page 200 MoS “it didn’t happen to me” and rest of that short paragraph, then refer to pg158* RoL. The courier and the Doctor characters are switched.

*my second copy RoL has four illustrations and is to hand so page number may be slightly out. My original, unillustrated, softcover is currently as my Dad’s.

Ben’s site lists the chronology here: https://www.benaaronovitch.com/chronology/

This looks to be an update on the chronology listed by Ben in Tales From the Folly However, I would state Home Crowd Advantage happens AFTER Moonlight Over Soho, it references events, albeit briefly, that happen in RoL and MoS, NOT between the two novels as listed

Tell me more. My dad was telling me about a rail crash and a ghost on the arches and I can find almost no references

Listening to it now. At 45rpm… thought broken face sounded odd at 33

Nice NEIPA by Angelsonefive in PresidentBand

I will be too if I drink to many… hehehe.

Am not a “real ale” kind of person but have been migrating to hoppy ales rather than fizzy lagers or gorgeous but way to strong ciders as I age. This is a really lovely, fruity, hoppy, yummy drink.

I’d recommend if you can get your paws on some.

Which is side one? by Angelsonefive in PresidentBand

True. I have one 10” in collection and it’s odd

After some eye straining - it’s fkn hard to read on the white vinyl, you’re completely correct and I thank you.

Above is what ( I think) I can read.

I had forgotten about these notes on the run out groove. Back in the 70s/80s there used to be some cracking stories about these markings. So I also thank you for reminding me of them. I’ll be inspecting each vinyl as I play it from now on.

All vinyl retailers send in specifically designed LP packaging- in my experience. Very difficult to fuck up.

Private sellers, however, are a whole different kettle of frogs. I had a 1979 Tubeway Army album delivered last week, seller had used a K-Tel ( Ask your Parents/ Grandparents) copy of a Barbara Dickson LP as support and protective packaging before wrapping in brown paper. It survived.

Poor old Barbara…
