Some Photographs of Hale Station
Here are some photos of the potentially lovely Hale Railway Station located on the Mid-Cheshire line that runs between Chester and Stockport (and onward to terminate at Manchester Piccadilly) which I took back in July 2012.
General view of station from town centre side car park. Like the proceeding station at Altrincham, Hale station is conveniently located just off that town's main thoroughfare.

However the exit is oddly located on the opposite side of the line.
Though this is made up for by the quite pleasant surroundings.
Middle of level crossing facing towards Stockport.
Platform for Stockport bound trains.
Train headed for Chester.
Stopping train passing over level crossing before continuing on to Manchester piccadilly via Stockport.

New Music from Send In the Idiots
More semi-improvised analogue noise this time with added bubbly texture here's a new preview track from Send In the Idiots' forthcoming EP, "At the BBC"...
I know we promised this last month but alas we had problems converting the cassette masters of our new material to digital.

Unique (?) Deroy Sound Services Acetate
Found another of these custom cut "Tape to Disc" records (my third) but before you get excited read the label:
No long lost lo-fi acid folk or garage rock nor spoken word oddness, it's simply a recording of the Wedding of Michael Stewart Vernon to Patricia Alice Turner on Saturday August 29th 1964 at Hazel Grove Methodist Church.
And there's nothing wrong with that. I'm glad this 12" LP survived and I'm happy to own it and preserve it in as listernable as it'll probably ever get quality on our Archive.org account.
Nothing much else to say about the record. The recording quality is quite good for what it is, however Miss Turner perhaps should have been a little closer to a (the?) microphone.
Plain white card sleeve, no inserts and no writing at all on the b side label.
Have a couple more of these one-off acetate LPs them being a 12" LP containing an amateur production of Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Pirates of Penzance" and a 10" LP of a 1972 hymn service. I won't be uploading either of them as they're not very interesting.

The Happiness Patrol Is Alive and Well and Living In New Mills
Just letting all three of you know that the Happiness Patrol
is still a going concern and will be releasing some new music
before this month is out.
EDIT (June 2015): Though new music was recorded technical issues
meant we couldn't master it onto our computer.
Remember:
You know it makes sense.
