there was a second hand record shop in Dixons for many years but closed due to the impact of CD's.

My oldest memory of buying a record in Hawkins was Sticky Fingures by the Rolling Stones.

What was the 1st record you brought?

this is why so many people shop out of Calne, its all take aways sandwich shops and charity shops, you cant do a proper weeks shop (at an affordable price) in town now, makes you wonder if people can still prepare a meal for theirselves these days


Have you been to Iceland, they sell lots more stuff than just frozen food, and their pizzas are better than Sainsburys, and milk is £1 for 4 pints, when it is £1.53 in Sainsburys and Tescos.......
