can't wait to get home to listen. :)

many thanks, Mopi :thumbsup:

predictably clicked the second link :wacko:

Can't wait to hear the Mix - even if it's only done with nine fingers and a whiffy sink :)

I really like the cover you've made. I love old computer game graphics.

Maybe I'm not looking in the right place, but is there a track list for the Mix anywhere please?

(it's a good job it's too long to fit on one CD, otherwise I was going to be a bit lazy and give it to my best friend for his birthday - now I'll just have to finish off that whittling.)

Thanks and sorry, folks - Replaced the link to the file, if you download again, you can now burn it onto any 80 minute CD.

Downloading this now, looks great - cheers mopi!

Thanks for the reload Mopi, now you can be assured that when I drive my car off a cliff I'll be laughing!!

Thanks everyone who participated - let's do this kind of stuff more often :girl2:

Working on it - have an idea, but I'll give us all a few days to digest this feast of fun.

aw, give us a hint--what's yer idea?

Just give me a couple of minutes....

:unsure: *checks watch*

That was the clue, actually :D

I'm off out to the pictures, so I'll start it tomorrow maybe.

Thanks, Mopiranger. Excellent work!

tis indeed an inspired work.
I'd really like to hear the tracks that didn't get any/ only one vote... as I have heard most of the finished article before.
Any chance of a 2nd CD of also-rans/ or never-were's??
Its a lot to ask I realise, but I'm a greedy pig for novelty records.
Go on Mopi - you will definitely go to heaven then.

A friendly poster asked me the same question before so I have slapped, dragged, plucked, torn, etc... together the entire novelty knockout, that is to say all of them, the entire hot 100.

Send me a PM with your address and i'll be happy to mail it.

oh fuck, i think i just came...

Wicked! I'll download this onto the in-laws PC, thanks :)

It's an awesome mix - really inspiring.
