Personal email regarding delivery of blank CDs for The Moon EP

Right! I went down to Start yesterday, bought 150 blank CD… dragged it to the bus-stop to go to Manchester… got off the bus… dragged it half-way across Manchester to get to another bus-stop to go home… got off the bus… dragged it home, all the way from the bus-stop…
You must be thinking, “How difficult can it be? It’s only a measly 150 CD”… but when you realise that each CD comes in one of those plastic case thingies and that a box of 10 has a substantial volume…

Paj, Manchester, Rave (invite)…
Q: So, how safe is a rave?
