    I know this book came out a while ago and I'm sure a lot of you will have already read it But I picked up FX Toole's Rope Burns in Fopp the other day and read it cover to cover in two days its brilliant

    Bit of a sh*t thread I know but I finished the book last night and I'm feeling evangelical about it.

    Check it out :good

    Hey how come you still have a Fopp? The one in Cardiff closed down, I thought the whole chain had gone busto.

    HMV bought it over as far as I know. I got that info from my missus, as she loved Fopp!
