Just finished restoring this lovely record player which is sitting alongside a newly made Ricky light box. The record players are a lifelong obsession. The light boxes are made to a design hatched by my dear departed bestie aka Richard Clerk Monks after chancing upon a stash of old glass bricks. Our plan was to start making one-off light boxes, each one unique or personalised. Sadly Ricky passed away suddenly last year and he is missed daily by so many people - the stash of glass bricks remain and finally I am ready to start making them. DM if you want any info.

Now I must confess that I WANT this so much … but it’s too far to push home … and I know my life will be less than it could be, my happiness forever more diminished: oh hand operated fork lift truck I love you so and yet it is not to be: the love that almost was, I speak your name, I dare but still we are not together
