What I Bought In The Sales, Or, Trials And Tribulations Aboard The No. 62 Bus

I went to Bangor today. To the record shop.

Tip One: Leave the house 15 minutes before the bus is due, not 12. You will very nearly miss it.

I got this: Lykke Li, Youth Novels...

Tip Two: Don't get on the 3:45 bus home. It. Will. Be. Packed.

And this: Nick Drake, Pink Moon...

Tip Three: Don't bump into old ladies. If you do, you'll get whacked across the knees with a handbag, and that hurts


And this: Sufjan Stevens, Age Of Adz...

Tip Four: When a Nice Young Man sits next to you, talks to you, and acts like he can't tell you're an awkward conversationalist, do not forget to tell him your name. 

And this: Sonic Youth, Daydream Nation

Tip Five: If you're prone to motion sickness, stand up. If you're prone to panic attacks, sit down. If you're prone to both, you're screwed.
