The Courettes were superb last night at The Gate in Cardiff.

A big change in the crowd from when I saw them at the Punk Festival in Blackpool last month.

From 1,500 down to 50, it doesn’t seem to bother them. Great night, cracking Venue as well.

Pogo Until Death.

Next gig for me.
The Gate in Cardiff on Tuesday night.

Saw these in Blackpool recently in front of approx 1,500 people, they were superb.
So to see them in such a small Venue is going to be a real treat.

Pogo Until Death.

Well over 100 LPs have come in, also about 40 CDs, a good variety as ever.

Here’s photos of a small selection of them, lots more from the 70’s and mostly 80’s-no reserving ta.

Although there’s not a lot of super rare stuff among the vinyl, the condition of the albums is incredible considering most are well over 40 years old.
Nearly all of them are near mint, some look like they’ve never been played.

Friday 930-230.
Saturday 930-1.

My first game of the season, very entertaining match but should have won.

I’m never going again.😆
Up The City.💙

A really strong City performance, but we’re forced to settle for a point.

Despite breaking my glasses (have to fork out another £2 now), the car wipers conking out and the dismal weather, it was a very good day.

Open 930-12 tomorrow.

26/08/2026

Shop opening times this week are Friday 930-230 and Saturday 930-12, closing early to go and watch the football.💙

Got great stock in at the moment, it doesn’t always work like that unfortunately, but atm it’s well worth a visit.

Cheers Phil.

Some photos from the earlier days of the shop,never been seen before, even by me, possibly 2010?

Looks quite neat and tidy in there, how times change.

How I’ve missed it, the greatest toilet in the Rhondda, it’s why I call in there every Sunday on the way home.
No activity there recently , but Phil is a happy chappy this evening.

Pwp, some concrete, a can, and a little bit of blue tape to finish it off, should be in the British Art Gallery.

I’ll sleep soundly tonight.
