	I bought two singles - 'I can see clearly now' by Johnny Nash and 'Starman' by David Bowie. My aunt gave me the Sgt Pepper LP - whch I swopped with my sister (probably for Sindy stuff) - and she's still got it!!! I call that taking unfair advantage of a younger sister - she was going to throw the Sindy stuff anyway!
