Yes, what a shock. Colin was a great pal and so willing to help out. He did a magic job on my turntable, thank you. Love to Lynn and family. A genuinely nice and kind guy who helped me so much with his advise over the years. Rest in Peace.

Nigel ‘vinylspinner’ and I will be there from Friday night (staying over) so Saturday and we may do Sunday as well.
